Abstract

A significant percentage of individuals lack sufficient mental capacity to make financial, health, and personal-care decisions for at least some period during their lifetimes. For those who die suddenly, that period may be brief. For those with Alzheimer’s Disease or other forms of dementia, the period of incapacity may last many years.
