Never Assume the Hospital Is Automatically Acting in Your Best Interest - Maintain awareness. - Verify information. - Ask questions respectfully but confidently. 8. Always Have a Dedicated Advocate Present - Have a trusted family member present whenever possible. - Ensure they know your wishes and can communicate them clearly. 9. Establish Leadership in Medical Interactions - View medical professionals as service providers rather than unquestionable authorities. - Be proactive rather than reactive. 10. Don't Leave Vulnerable Family Members Alone - Especially children, elderly parents, or disabled family members. - Maintain a continuous advocate presence whenever feasible. 11. Ground Decisions in Faith Rather Than Fear - Scott emphasizes that freedom from fear begins with confidence in Christ and eternal hope.
