Dr. Luis Pagan-Carlo, a Minnesota cardiologist with over 30 years of experience, has released a free guide through his healthcare education company, Silver Mangos, to help seniors and adults prepare for medical emergencies before they happen.

The guide focuses on advance healthcare directives—legal documents that communicate a patient’s medical care preferences when they cannot speak for themselves.
“Who ultimately has the power to say what should be done to you medically? You, of course. It’s your body and your life,” says Dr. Pagan-Carlo. “But this very important option is not available to you if you are unable to communicate. Sadly, this is the case for millions of people, but it doesn’t have to be this way.”
Dr. Pagan-Carlo developed the resource after observing a common problem among his patients: many arrive at the hospital without proper documentation of their healthcare wishes. This lack of preparation can lead to unwanted medical interventions and places difficult decisions on family members during already stressful moments.
The guide draws on real patient experiences, including cases where individuals faced unexpected cardiac events without directives in place. Dr. Pagan-Carlo emphasizes that planning during calm moments prevents rushed decisions during crises.
“Establishing your wishes at the end of life is a responsible, mature approach to a condition we all suffer from—which is, we’re all mortal,” he explains. “If you wait till the end, you will not have enough time in the middle of a crisis to make the decisions that you would otherwise have made.”
The guide complements Silver Mangos’ existing resources, which include Dr. Pagan-Carlo’s bestselling book “Your Life’s Choice” and a 10-chapter video course. The book has received endorsements from fellow physicians, including Scott W. Sharkey, MD, FACC, who called it “an exceptional resource” providing “all the tools you need for your own journey.”
