An Advance Medical Directive (AMD) is a legal document that you sign in advance to inform the doctor treating you, that you do not want any extraordinary life-sustaining treatment to be used to prolong your life, in the event you become terminally ill and unconscious.
Making an AMD is a voluntary decision. Anyone who is 21 years old and above, and who is not mentally disordered can make an AMD.
For more information on AMD, you can visit MOH website.
