Respecting Life
Through Preparation
A digital advance directive for Jehovah's Witnesses, aligned with Mental Capacity Act 2005 standards. Create it once, maintain it easily, access it anywhere. Your blood refusal preferences ready the moment they're needed.
Paper has limits
- Paper copies can be forgotten, misplaced, or left behind at the moment they're needed.
- Without a record of regular review, courts may find a directive invalid through implied withdrawal.
- Medical staff face unfamiliar restrictions without immediate clinical context.
Digital, done right
- Access your directive from any device through secure cloud storage.
- Intelligent review prompts maintain your directive's legal validity year after year.
- A bundled Patient Blood Management reference library supports clinicians at the point of care.
Cloud-first with targeted offline resilience. Your emergency display and clinical reference work offline, so critical information is ready even in hospital dead zones.
A Directive Built to Stand,
Created with Care
Three steps. Guided throughout. Designed for the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and comparable statutes.
Guided Interview
A clear, step-by-step process captures your blood refusal preferences. Explicit refusal of whole blood and its four primary components, granular choices on acceptable fractions and cell salvage, and the statutory "even if life is at risk" language included automatically.
Digital Signing Ceremony
An in-person ceremony captures your electronic signature alongside two independent adult witnesses, with timestamp and location. The resulting document is designed to meet the formal requirements of the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and comparable international statutes.
Intelligent Review Prompts
Scheduled annual reminders, plus optional triggers for health and life events, keep your directive current. Each review creates timestamped evidence of your ongoing commitment, preventing judicial invalidation through implied withdrawal.
Ready the Moment It Matters
One tap reveals the information emergency staff need. Cached locally, so it works offline.
Emergency Display
- High-contrast red and black on white, optimised for rapid scanning by medical personnel.
- Unambiguous "No Blood Transfusions" banner above your primary healthcare agent's contact details.
- A QR code linking to your complete directive, so hospital staff can view the full document on their own device.
- Works offline. Screen stays awake whilst displayed.
Never locked to one device
If your phone is lost, damaged, or far from where you need it, your directive isn't. Sign in from any web browser on any device and your full directive is there. A family member's phone in the hospital car park. A ward computer at the bedside. A tablet wherever you've travelled. Your emergency display also caches to your primary device, so the information lives both in the cloud and in your pocket.
Web, iOS, Android. One account, one directive.
