Understanding the DNR Decision in Hospice Care

One of the most difficult and emotionally charged decisions a person can make is related to a Do Not Resuscitate order.  The Do Not Resuscitate order is an advance care planning document that allows a person to die a natural death without any medical interventions, such as CPR, intubation, or any other mechanical devices.  In this episode, Hannah Brightwell, RN shares the who, what, when, and why related to a DNR order for someone on hospice.   Follow Harbor Hospice on Facebook.
