If you want to choose someone to make decisions on your health and welfare when you cannot, then yes. That way, you can pick someone you trust and explain to them any preferences you have so that if the day comes when you cannot make those decisions yourself, they have the legal authority to do so on your behalf.
Is a health and welfare power of attorney necessary?

Emily Spencer has been excellent! She very patiently explained issues regarding my Will and checked with senior colleagues if she felt that she needed to. I am delighted with her attitude and professionalism.
