What is an Advance Directive?
An Oregon advance directive lets you name a health care representative and record the treatment you do or do not want if you cannot speak for yourself. Signing one now spares your family from guessing at a hard moment.
Where We Sign Advance Directives in Clackamas County
Hospitals. We sign at Kaiser Permanente Sunnyside Medical Center on SE Sunnyside Rd in Clackamas, Providence Milwaukie Hospital on SE 32nd Ave, and Providence Willamette Falls Medical Center on Division St in Oregon City. See hospital notary visits.
At home. A mobile visit is $70 for the first 10 miles, plus $2 per mile after that.
Office. The Lake Oswego office is open Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm and Saturday 10am to 2pm; there the fee is only $10 per notarial act.
Care communities. If the signer is a patient in a long-term care facility, Oregon law requires one of the two witnesses to be a person the facility designates, so check with the facility first. Signing before a notary instead avoids that step.

Steps to Notarize Your Advance Directive with Pac Signing
Prepare Your Document
Download the official Oregon advance directive form from a trusted source or get one from your healthcare provider.
Book an Appointment
Contact us to schedule a convenient time for notarization. We offer mobile notary services and can come to your home, hospital, or another location.
Sign and Notarize
During the appointment, we will ensure that you and your witnesses sign the document correctly. We’ll then notarize the form, verifying the authenticity of your signatures.
Distribute Copies
After notarization, make sure to distribute copies of your advance directive to your healthcare representative, physician, and any other relevant parties.
Why Notarizing an Advance Directive is Important in Clackmas County, Oregon
Oregon accepts either two qualified adult witnesses or a notary public. A notarized directive is easy to rely on later, because the notary has checked the signer’s identity and that they are signing willingly. We can do either, or both at one visit.
We Provide Mobile Witnesses for Your Advance Directive
In Clackmas County, Oregon, two witnesses are required to validate the signing of your advance directive. These witnesses must meet certain legal criteria:
- They cannot be related to you by blood, marriage, or adoption.
- They must not stand to inherit anything from your estate.
- One of the witnesses cannot be an employee at the healthcare facility where you receive treatment.
Pac Signing understands how challenging it can be to find qualified witnesses, which is why we offer a two-witness mobile service for advance directives. This service ensures that you meet Oregon’s legal requirements without having to coordinate witnesses yourself. Our mobile notary and witness services ensure that all legalities are addressed in a single, convenient visit.
