The benefits of a Hawaii living will
The benefit of having a Hawaii living will is that it allows family members and health care workers to know your medical treatment preferences. You can leave individual instructions about the end-of-life care and life-sustaining treatment you wish to receive.

What’s next to make my Hawaii living will valid?
Validate your Hawaii living will by following these steps:
Make tough decisions
End-of-life care decisions are never easy. No one wants to think about falling ill or incapacitated and being unable to communicate medical treatment preferences. A living will or advance directive can alleviate that unsettling feeling.
In Hawaii, advance health care directives take effect if you are near death. You can rely on your advance directive if you suffer brain damage or disease that makes you permanently unable to communicate medical treatment preferences.
Suppose you want medical providers to use artificial nutrition or artificial hydration procedures. In that case, you will have to include this request in your advance directive. You should also decide if you want hospice care, whether you want relief from pain, and if you want to leave any spiritual or religious instructions.
Decide what kind of care and treatment you will receive
Your advance directive requires you to make decisions about what life-prolonging treatment you would like to receive, such as:
- Feeding tubes
- Blood transfusions
- Life-term facility
- The use of mechanical resuscitation
- Hospice care
Sign and notarize
In Hawaii, advance directives must be signed by the declarant or someone signing on their behalf in front of two witnesses. All signatures must be notarized.

You may want to speak with a lawyer if:
- Your family disagrees with your medical choices
- You don’t know who to appoint as your agent
- You have questions about life prolonging measures
- You want legal review of your completed document

Create my health care directiveHawaii living will frequently asked questions
The legal requirements to make a legally valid Hawaii living will are:
- A competent person that is at least 18 years old or an emancipated minor
- The document must be in writing
- Living wills must be signed by the declarant (the person making the living will) or by someone the declarant authorizes to sign in their place at their direction in the presence of the declarant
- The document must be dated
- The living will be witnessed by at least two witnesses that are each at least 18 years old
- Everyone’s signature must be notarized
- Before making an advance directive, the declarant must be in a terminal condition or have permanently lost their ability to communicate medical treatment preferences
You can override a living will by making a new one or revoking specific provisions. You can withdraw your living will at any time by using one of the following methods:
- A signed and dated writing that clearly revokes your living will
- By a clear verbal expression in front of two witnesses
- By destroying the living will
- By a clear indication to an attending physician
Agents have only the authority that is bestowed to them in your advance directive. An agent can only make health care decisions on behalf of a declarant who lacks capacity. Once the declarant regains capacity, the agent’s authority ends. Only a primary care physician can determine the declarant’s capacity.
Agents can only act on instructions from their principals. If the principal does not leave instructions, the agent shall make decisions on the principal’s behalf based on the principal’s best interests. In determining what decisions are best for the principal, the agent should consider the principal’s personal values to the extent that you know them.
FindLaw has created an easy, efficient, do-it-yourself living will form you can complete in under an hour from the comfort of your own home.
Every adult should have an advance directive. Advance directives allow you to advocate for yourself in an emergency medical situation. An advance directive protects your interest in your medical treatment preferences.
