Medical Power of Attorney Form - Idaho

An Idaho Medical Power of Attorney Form is required in instances when a principal wants to designate themselves an agent, legally allowing them to make important medical decisions on their behalf. This is only done in the event that the principal can no longer do this independently and would require assistance. For this reason, the selected agent needs to be reliable (most of the time close relatives or friends are picked) and should be easily contacted in the event of an emergency. It is the job of the principal to explain and clearly describe their wishes and expectations so that the agent can follow them accordingly.

However, another important factor to consider when drafting an Idaho Medical Power of Attorney is the signing requirements. In most states, there is a legal requirement that the document is signed before a notary public or in front of witnesses. In Idaho, the scenario is much simpler - only the principal is expected to add their signature. But there is a strong recommendation to still do so before a notary public or to have the document notarized.
