Can you notarize a Power of Attorney for a hospitalized patient?
Yes. Powers of Attorney are among the most common hospital notarizations. The signer must be willing, aware, and able to communicate their intent.
What if the signer cannot speak?
A signer does not necessarily need to speak verbally. However, the signer must be able to communicate directly with the notary, demonstrate an understanding of the document being signed, and communicate their willingness to sign.
What if the signer is heavily medicated?
California law requires the signer to be aware of what they are signing and able to communicate their intent. If the signer appears confused, disoriented, or unable to communicate, the notarization cannot proceed.

Can family members sign on behalf of a patient?
No. The person whose signature is being notarized must personally appear before the notary and meet California notarial requirements.
What identification is required?
California law requires satisfactory proof of identity, typically through an approved government-issued photo identification document, such as a valid driver’s license, state identification card, or passport.
How quickly can a hospital notary arrive?
Same-day and urgent appointments may be available depending on location, scheduling, and signer readiness.
What if the patient is unable to sign?
The signer must generally be able to sign the document and meet all California notarial requirements. If the signer is unable to sign, additional legal and document-specific considerations may apply. We recommend consulting with the attorney or document preparer before scheduling the appointment.
