What Families Should Know
Does the nursing home or hospice need to approve the visit?
Facilities may have their own visitor, privacy, and scheduling policies. The family or authorized contact should confirm access requirements with the facility before the appointment.
Who should attend a hospice or nursing home signing?
The signer must be present, and any required witnesses or representatives should be identified in advance. The document's instructions and the receiving organization may determine who needs to participate.
How do you determine whether a resident can participate?
The notary observes whether the signer is present, appears willing, can communicate intent, and appears to understand the act of signing. A notary does not make medical or legal capacity determinations.
Can documents be notarized if the resident is receiving hospice care?
Potentially, if the signer can meet the requirements for a valid notarization and the document is eligible for notarization. Contact On Demand Dox before the visit to discuss the circumstances and required participants.
