Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Durable power of attorney for health care is the document in which you give the name of the person to whom you want to give the authority to make decisions on your behalf regarding your health or treatment. These decisions can be made by the person when you are mentally and physically unable to make a decision for yourself.

This document also gives instructions to your nominee about the medical treatments you require according to your health conditions.

So, the correct answer is option C.
