Power of Attorney: Why Everyone Should Have One

Life is unpredictable. A Power of Attorney (POA) ensures someone you trust can make decisions if you can’t.

Types of POAs

• General POA – Covers financial/legal matters while you are capable.

• Enduring POA – Remains valid if you become incapacitated.

• Medical POA – Allows someone to make healthcare decisions on your behalf.

Why It’s Important

• Protects your finances if you’re abroad or ill

• Ensures medical decisions match your wishes

• Reduces stress for family members during emergencies

Who Should Have a POA?

Everyone—regardless of age or wealth. Accidents and illnesses can happen at any time. Having a POA ensures your affairs remain in safe hands.
