Guest guest Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 " Dolores Reid said she lost her husband of 50 years after paramedics reviewed his living will and refused to continue performing CPR. " Sorry for the giant text. This specific situation is talking about a living will, not OOH DNR. Although reading further in the article it says all advanced directives. Aren't we taught in EMT school how to identify an OOH DRN? And, correct if I'm wrong, but OOH DNR is " you do CPR or you don't do CPR " whereas advanced directives and in hospital DRNs have more specifics. I hope this would not include OOH if so I will gladly help Sent from my iPhone > http://www.texastribune.org/texas-legislature/82nd-legislative-session/lawmakers\ -consider-resuscitation-bill-/ > > Maybe I'm mistaken... are they trying to make Out-Of-Hospital DNR's illegal? > > If so, who wants to help me start setting up the protests? > > -- > Alyssa Woods, NREMT-B > CPR Instructor > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 This is interesting. In My two-cents worth, it would be easier to just just the OOH DNR form instead of reviewing any living will out in the field. To: texasems-l From: amwoods8644@...
