# Representation Agreements, which allow a donor to appoint representatives to make decisions regarding health and personal care. These are discussed further in  in Chapter 15: Guardianship.
# Advance Directives, which contain specific directions regarding health care, that are binding on health care providers. 
# Nominations of Committees permit an individual to express their preferences regarding who may be appointed as a person’s committee in case of incapacity.
