In many places privacy laws prevent unmarried partners from being automatically notified in medical situations, from making medical decisions, and misc other medical situations you might expect your committed partner to be involved. This probably doesn't matter as long as you are conscious, but if you've involved in an accident or become incapacitated, you'd need a living will on file to have your partner participate in some of these.
- damnencryption 6y agoThis is why I carry a digital documentation describing what to do with me if I am in that situation. My phone's lockscreen has a note on how to check it. I wonder if there is any standard place I can put the information on what to do if I am on brink of death somewhere so hospitals know to check for it.
