A Wyoming medical power of attorney form is a legal document that allows an individual to select a surrogate to handle healthcare decisions on their behalf. The main purpose of the document is to ensure that the principal’s medical preferences are administered in the chance that they cannot make competent decisions. Generally, the chosen surrogate will be the principal’s spouse, relative, or close friend. Whoever is selected should know the principal’s choices regarding end-of-life medical procedures and life-prolonging treatments.
