Save Other Souls™

Advance Healthcare Planning

for Disaster Situations

“Specifying one’s choices, using an advance directive, is of greater importance than ever during a pandemic.”

~ The New York Times, discussing Save Other Souls, July 2020

Save Other Souls is a nonprofit dedicated to giving patients the ability to express their desire to forgo critical care during the COVID-19 pandemic so that those resources might help others in need.

We provide a simple healthcare directive and wallet card to ensure patients can make their wishes known. Patients can make clear to first responders and medical staff that, during a declared emergency in which resources are scarce and triage has begun, they desire to defer medical treatment involving resources that are in short supply.

Entirely voluntary and revocable at any time, an S.O.S. directive provides a voice to patients to inform decisions that would otherwise be left to triage procedures.
