[quote=Anonymous]NP here. Thank you to all of the PPs with helpful information about this. I have some questions about using a healthcare power of attorney document for my child. If my child signs this and appoints me, her mom, as her representative, can I call any medical facility where she has been treated, whether it was an emergency or otherwise, and ask for her medical records, or is the document only "active" if DD is not able to make decisions on her own, like she is in a coma? Also, if there is an emergency situation, how does this work in practice if I am across the country and she is unconscious? How would the hospital even know to call me in the first place? And if they do figure out to call me, would I email/text them a copy of the power of attorney document and that gives them permission to explain to me what is going on medically? Thanks for helping me to understand this all. [/quote]
