I am a newcomer to Talking Point, so please excuse me if I'm doing things wrongly.
My wife and I are wanting to make Health and Welfare LPAs appointing each other as attorney. We want to make sure that the restrictions/conditions and guidance answers are as comprehensive as possible, both for what we each would like, and for what we each would not want. Some, like “do not resuscitate” are reasonably well known, and the Mental Capacity Act Code of Practice (para 7.21) gives some general guidance, but we suspect there are other, maybe many other, specific forms of words that others have found useful. Is there anywhere a list of such possible conditions/restrictions and guidance (we realise that such a thing can never be completely comprehensive) that we could go through and think about following or rejecting?
