Health care powers of attorney and living wills need two qualified witnesses. For an online session, your witnesses should be in the room with you, each with a current photo ID.
If you're helping a parent in Forsyth County from another city, you can book the appointment, upload the document and join the same session, as long as the signer is the one who signs.
Winston-Salem, from Old Salem to the medical center.
Winston-Salem is home to Wake Forest University, Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist and historic Old Salem. Many families here care for aging parents while working full time.
Online notarization will let you help a parent with a power of attorney or affidavit from home, on a weekday evening or Saturday morning, when the document allows it.
Local tip: Helping a parent? The person named in the document must sign it themselves and understand what they're signing. We can't notarize a signature for someone else.
