Today, On 31st May, Goa has become the first Indian state to fully implement “Living Will” advanced medical directives, empowering individuals to outline medical treatment preferences in advance. The initiative aims to give patients more control over end-of-life care decisions and reduce the burden on families and healthcare providers. The recent event in Panji marked the unveiling of the Advanced Medical Directives (AMD) booklet and the first living will signed by Justice MS Sonak. This milestone sets a new precedent in end-of-life care in India.
