In the event that you become unable to make decisions for yourself, the person or people you appoint to make decisions on your behalf become your “Attorney” and they can deal with healthcare providers, financials bodies (including banks) or any other relevant person or company that deals with your affairs. Any person can be appointed as your Attorney (as long as they are over 18), including your spouse, adult children, siblings, friends, a business colleague or your solicitor.
