Can This Work With Living Wills, Do-Not-Resuscitate, Living Trusts & Last Wills
Yes/No. It all depends on the situation and how it is applied.
Living Wills are separate from the trust and have to do with one's personal health (not as a Trustee) and therefore is suggested for everyone!

DNR (Do-Not-Resuscitate) Orders are separate from the trust and have to do with one's personal health (not as a Trustee) and therefore is suggested for everyone! Get a "printable DNR form free" by searching Google. A DNR tells first-respondents (requires notice to be worn on the body, usually as bracelet/necklace) and health care providers (requires a notarized form) to not perform CPR and allow a natural death.
Living Trusts have very few (if any) applications for 99% of the population in the use of a private express trust.
Last Wills are useful for the common [extremely poor/indigent] masses who need an instant declaration of intent after death; however, they often leave one's descendants and consanguinity in probate. Probate courts often take 20%-70% of the estate and the heirs get what's left!
