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 Woodburn
Woodburn Estates. We often sign advance directives and other estate papers for residents of Woodburn Estates and Golf. Spouses can sign at the same visit.
Travel. Woodburn is about 22 miles from our Lake Oswego office at 5 Centerpointe Dr, Suite 400, just off Kruse Way, around 30 minutes, so the fee is usually above the $70 base. We quote it when you book: $70 for the first 10 miles, plus $2 per mile after that.
Hospital. Legacy Silverton Medical Center on Fairview St in Silverton serves Woodburn, and Salem Hospital is south on I-5. See hospital notary visits.
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 Woodburn, 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 Woodburn, Oregon, your advance directive must be signed in front of two qualified adult witnesses or a notary public. Pac Signing brings both to your appointment. If you use witnesses, Oregon law says they must be adults and cannot be:
- your attending doctor or health care provider
- the person you name as your health care representative or alternate
If you live in a long-term care facility, one of the witnesses must be someone the facility designates.
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.
Who Needs an Advance Directive?
Any adult can make an advance directive. Many Woodburn Estates residents sign theirs when they update a will.
