A Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) is a legal document and a deed that empowers you to plan for the unexpected. This allows you to appoint a trusted individual(s) known as your “donee(s)” to make decisions on your behalf should you lose your mental capacity in the future. This could be due to reasons like dementia, a severe accident, or even a temporary illness. The LPA also gives the authority to the Donee to sign deeds on the Donor’s behalf. Some examples of deeds include: An instrument used to appoint another individual to act on your behalf An instrument used to transfer an interest in immovable property (in the case of an LPA, Donee(s) may be able to do so on behalf of the Donor if they are granted property & affairs powers as defined in the LPA) Benefits of LPA Peace of mind : Knowing your loved ones are not burdened by complex choices during a difficult time, knowing your wishes are being respected even if you could not express them yourself provides immense comfort for you and your loved ones. Empowerment : You get to choose the person(s) you trust to make decisions in your best interest. Avoids Complication in Court : Having an LPA eliminates the need for a lengthy & stressful court process to appoint a deputy should you lose mental capacity without an LPA in place. It is also cheaper than applying for a Deputyship Order through the court. Complete Your Future Planning with the Advance Medical Directive (AMD) While a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) ensures your financial and personal welfare decisions are managed by someone you trust if you lose mental capacity, an Advance Medical Directive (AMD) addresses a different, but equally crucial, aspect of future planning. An AMD is your legally binding declaration stating that you do not wish to receive extraordinary life-sustaining treatment in the event of terminal illness or irreversible unconsciousness . It's your voice for your future healthcare wishes. Together, an LPA and AMD provide comprehensive protection , ensuring both your personal affairs and your end-of-life medical preferences are clearly known and respected. Find out more How to apply for LPA? You may refer to the summarised infographic created by MSFCares Singapore: What can your donee decide? You could customize your LPA to grant your donee the decision-making authority in 2 key areas: 1. Personal Welfare: This aspect covers decisions about your daily living arrangements, medical care, and personal needs. 2. Property & Affairs: This empowers your Donee to manage your finances, investments, properties, and handling other legal & business matters. 3. Or Both. What happens if there are more than one donee? Decide if they will act: • Jointly: Donees would have to act jointly and not individually. The joint appointment will be terminated should any donee be unable to act. • Jointly & severally: Donees can make the decision together jointly or individually. One donee can act without the other donee. What is the difference between a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) and an Advance Medical Directive (AMD)? • LPA: Appoints one or more donees to make decisions on your behalf if you lose mental capacity. It covers broader decisions, including personal welfare, finances, and medical care. • AMD: States your wish not to receive extraordinary life-sustaining treatment if you are terminally ill and death is imminent. It only applies to end-of-life medical decisions. Can I do my LPA or AMD separately or together? Yes, you can complete your Advance Medical Directive (AMD) and Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) separately or together. It's recommended to have both documents in place to ensure comprehensive planning for both healthcare and financial decisions should you become incapacitated. Is there any conflict of doing so? Can LPA override an AMD? An LPA does not override an AMD. If you have both documents, your wishes expressed in the AMD will still be followed if you are terminally ill. LPA : $53.50 AMD : $53.50 LPA + AMD : $88.50 Prices before GST LPA Infographic Video Guide from MSFCares Getting started with an LPA application OPGO E-Service Do take note: You must be at least 21 years old and mentally capable to create a valid LPA. You can appoint one or more donees and specify their decision-making powers. You have the right to revoke your LPA anytime you regain mental capacity. Visiting our Certified Doctors After successfully applying for LPA, you may book an appointment with our certified doctors to witness and verify the LPA. There will be LPA Professional Fee charge for the certificate issuance.

- Polyswab Service | Etern Medical
Swab services that detects these viruses (Adenovirus, Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), Influenza, Mycoplasma Pneumoniae) Polyswab Service Early Detection For Peace of Mind What is Polyswab? Etern Medical offers swab service tests that detect these emerging viruses (Adenovirus, Respiratory Syncytial Virus, Influenza & Mycoplasma Pneumoniae) Scroll down to learn out more about the different viruses. Adenovirus What is Adenovirus? Adenoviruses are a group of widespread viruses that can infect various parts of your body, including your respiratory system, eyes, intestines, urinary tract, and nervous system. Who can get infected? While children are more susceptible to adenovirus infections than adults, anyone can contract them. In fact, most children will encounter at least one type of adenovirus infection by the age of 10. Adenovirus infections can manifest as a variety of symptoms, including: Common cold or flu-like symptoms Fever Sore throat Acute bronchitis (chest cold) Pneumonia (lung infection) Pink eye (conjunctivitis) Acute gastroenteritis (diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, stomach pain) Transmission Adenoviruses spread primarily through: Close contact: Touching or shaking hands with an infected person. Respiratory droplets: Coughing and sneezing near others. Contaminated surfaces: Touching objects or surfaces harboring the virus and then touching your mouth, nose, or eyes before washing your hands. Fecal-oral route: In some cases, through contact with infected stool, particularly during diaper changes. Waterborne transmission: Less common, but possible in contaminated water sources like swimming pools. Usually mild and self-resolving: Fortunately, most adenovirus infections are mild and resolve on their own within a few days. However, individuals with weakened immune systems, especially young children, may experience more severe complications. Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) What is RSV? Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a prevalent cause of respiratory illnesses, particularly affecting children. While it often presents as a simple common cold, it can sometimes infect the lungs and breathing passages, leading to breathing difficulties in infants and young children. Who is at Risk? RSV can be particularly severe for: Young children: Especially infants and those under 1 year old. Older adults: Especially those 65 and above. Individuals with weakened immune systems: This includes people with chronic health conditions or undergoing specific medical treatments. Prevalence and Potential Severity: According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), almost all children contract RSV by age 2. However, only a small percentage experience severe symptoms. Common Symptoms in Children: Cold-like symptoms: Stuffy or runny nose, sore throat, mild headache, cough, fever. Feeding issues: Not eating or drinking well. General discomfort: Feeling unwell. RSV Complications: While less common, RSV can lead to: Bronchiolitis: Inflammation of the small airways in the lungs. Pneumonia: Infection of the lungs. Dehydration: Especially in young children due to decreased fluid intake. Influenza Understanding Flu Influenza, commonly known as the flu, is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. These viruses primarily infect the nose, throat, and lungs. Who is at Higher Risk? While anyone can contract the flu, certain groups are at increased risk for serious complications: Individuals 65 years and older: Their immune systems weaken with age, making them more susceptible to severe illness. Young children: Their immune systems are still developing, leaving them vulnerable to complications. Children under 5 years old: Especially those under 2 are at highest risk due to their immature immune systems. People with chronic health conditions: Underlying conditions like asthma, diabetes, or heart disease can further worsen flu complications. Pregnant women: They experience changes in their immune system and lung capacity, making them more susceptible to complications. Symptoms and Signs Flu symptoms typically appear suddenly and may include some or all of the following: Fever or feeling feverish/chills Cough Sore throat Runny or stuffy nose Muscle or body aches Headaches Fatigue (tiredness) Vomiting and diarrhea (more common in children) Important Note: Not everyone with the flu will experience a fever. Mycoplasma Pneumoniae What is Mycoplasma Pneumoniae? This bacteria commonly cause mild respiratory infections. While one-third of infected individuals develop a specific type of pneumonia called "walking pneumonia", it's important to understand the broader spectrum of potential outcomes. Atypical Pneumonia or "Walking Pneumonia": Unlike typical bacterial pneumonia, walking pneumonia often presents with gradually worsening symptoms that persist for weeks or months. While individuals may experience fever, fatigue, headache, and chest discomfort, they are often able to remain mobile during the illness, hence the name "walking pneumonia." Alternative Manifestations: Mycoplasma infection can also manifest as a chest cold (acute bronchitis), primarily affecting children. Symptoms typically include: Cough (may become chronic) Sore throat Fatigue Fever Headache Pneumonia Symptoms: In some cases, mycoplasma infection can progress to full-blown pneumonia, presenting with symptoms like: Cough (possibly productive) Fever and chills Shortness of breath Chest pain Fatigue Who is at Risk? Anyone can be infected with mycoplasma bacteria, but certain groups are more susceptible to severe complications: Older adults Children under 5 years old Individuals with compromised immune systems due to: Chronic steroid use Immunotherapy Chemotherapy Underlying health conditions like lung disease or sickle cell disease
