Hospital & Bedside Notary β€” Wichita

When a loved one is admitted, time matters. We come to the hospital, the ICU, the nursing home, or hospice β€” patient, discreet, and respectful of the situation.

If a loved one is becoming unable to sign β€” admission, sedation, declining condition β€” call the cell line directly.

πŸ“ž 24/7 Β· 316-247-2525

Important β€” Mental Competency

The signer must be mentally aware and competent at the time of notarization, even in a hospital bed. We confirm awareness through brief conversation before any signature.

If the patient is heavily sedated, on certain medications, or experiencing significant cognitive changes, we may not be able to proceed. If there’s any chance the window of competency is closing, call us sooner rather than later.

What to Have Ready

βœ… The completed document(s) β€” do not sign before we arrive; signatures must happen in our presence
βœ… Valid photo ID for the signer β€” driver’s license, passport, state ID, or military ID. A hospital wristband + family ID confirmation can work if necessary β€” call ahead.
βœ… Witnesses if required β€” Kansas living wills require two witnesses. We can provide one; family or hospital staff often provide the other.
βœ… A quiet moment β€” coordinate with nursing staff so the signing isn’t interrupted.
