By making an enduring power of attorney, you are choosing who you want to manage your financial affairs or make medical decisions on your behalf if you lose mental capacity.  It is the only way you can have control over who will make decisions on your behalf should you are ever be unable to do so yourself.

There are three specific types of Enduring Powers of Attorney in Victoria:

  1. Enduring Power of Attorney (Financial)
  2. Enduring Power of Attorney (Medical Treatment)
  3. Enduring Power of Guardianship.

All Powers of Attorney will cease on death and you can change them at any time if required.
