Instructions in a LPOA

DoneWorking

What kind of instructions are usually added to both kinds of LPOA to ensure your wishes are met after you lose that ability to manage your affairs

the main one for the health and welfare one is your decision as to whether you allow attorneys to refuse life-sustaining treatment. (FYI if it has got to that point and you are over a certain age, I'd suggest allowing it as there is no magic to pain relief) No-one is going to knock you on the head despite what the anti-assisted dying liars say, you'll just take longer to die.

you can give more detail about circumstances - an 'advance directive' is also a good idea for that.

financial attorneys are obligated to spend your money in your best interest. Where it goes after your death is what your will is for.

Wishes (preferences) and instructions are not the same thing and putting instructions in your LPA is not something I would do, but then I do trust my attorneys to do the right thing. They all know that should I loose it mentally I want nothing more than palliative care for any life threatening illnesses. 

Getting instructions wrong can mean the LPA gets rejected and you have to resubmit it.

A few points

Unless you have very good reasons otherwise,then allow your attorneys to act jointly and severally

You do not need to have exactly the same attorneys for both POAs - I happen to have an additional attorney for the health one,not least because of their professional medical knowledge

Personally I haven’t sought to add any restrictions to the POAs as I trust absolutely in my attorneys.
