Still, I think I'd stick with "advance directives"

http://www.nolo.com/dictionary/advance-directive-term.html

advance directive
A legal document that allows you to set out written wishes for your medical care and to name a person to make sure those wishes are carried out. (See also: living will, durable power of attorney for health care)

Advance directive
An advance directive is a legal document. It tells what kind of medical treatment you would like if your life is in danger and you can't communicate. Advance directives include:

* a living will that explains your wishes about medical treatments at the end of life
* a health-care power of attorney that lets you choose someone to make medical decisions for you

In formal medical contexts, "advance directives" appears to be used more than "living will".

A will is a statement by an individual giving their directives on how, typically, property and money should be dealt with after death. Other matters such as funeral and burial arrangements may be incorporated.

Whereas ordinary wills have been used for centuries the concept of an 'advanced directives' is relatively new. Concerns about mental capacity and consent for treatment have become more of an issue with medical advancement and interventions such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation, artificial ventilation and intravenous hydration and nutrition. Some people become concerned about having treatment when incapable of refusing treatments or when they are unable to consent or incapable of consenting. A person may make a will or advance directive to the effect that if such circumstances should they would not wish to be subjected to futile medical intervention.

Problems can arise with the practical definition, application and implementation of such directives. Often the request for such a directive to be put in place can provide a useful opportunity to discuss current or future illness with the patient and their families. An empathic approach to the request and a discussion about implementation of such directives can help allay fear and anxiety. It may be important to explore the reasons behind such fear and anxiety.
