Nebraska Medical Power of Attorney

A medical power of attorney names an agent to make health care decisions for you in Nebraska when you cannot speak for yourself. In Nebraska, a medical power of attorney generally must be either acknowledged before a notary public or signed by two witnesses (Neb. Rev. Stat. 30-3404).

This template walks you through naming your agent and an alternate, describing the authority you grant, and signing it the way Nebraska expects. Download the finished document in Word and PDF.
