Before your appointment
What to have ready for a bedside notary visit.
Valid photo ID
Every signer needs a current government-issued photo ID — California driver's license, state ID, U.S. passport, or equivalent. If the patient's ID is at home, have a family member bring it before the appointment.
All document pages
Bring complete documents — not just the signature page. If you need documents generated on-site, we bring a laptop, portable printer, and internet connection to produce forms during our visit.
Any required witnesses
Healthcare directives typically require two witnesses who are not named in the document and are not employees of the treating facility. Confirm witness requirements for your specific document before we arrive.
