Our ethos is centred around putting people back in control of their healthcare choices by enabling them to make informed medical decisions and ensuring those decisions are respected by healthcare professionals.
We believe individuals should play an active role in decisions relating to their own healthcare and should have access to the tools, information, and support needed to make those decisions with confidence.
We believe every individual has the fundamental right to bodily autonomy — the right to decide what medical treatments, procedures, and interventions they do or do not wish to undergo.
Medical decisions should always be made freely, voluntarily, and based on clear, accessible information without unnecessary pressure or confusion.
At the heart of our mission is the principle of informed consent. We believe people should fully understand their medical options and be able to clearly communicate their healthcare wishes.
Our services are designed to help individuals document and store important medical preferences, legal directives, and emergency information so those choices can still be recognised and respected during times when a person may be unconscious or unable to communicate.
Many people worry about losing control over their healthcare decisions during emergency situations. This concern can create significant anxiety for individuals and families alike.
Our aim is to provide practical systems and legally recognised documentation that help emergency services and healthcare professionals quickly understand a member’s medical preferences and treatment decisions when it matters most.
We are committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of our members’ personal and medical information.
In an increasingly digital world, we believe sensitive healthcare data should be handled with the highest levels of security, integrity, and respect. Unlike many organisations, we do not harvest personal data or routinely share it with third parties.
Ultimately, My Medical Choice exists to empower individuals, support informed decision-making, and help ensure that every person retains control over their own body, healthcare preferences, and medical rights.
