Default Does having a DNR include do not call 911?

I recently heard about a person who has a DNR and they also do not want 911 to be called.

Right or wrong I associate DNR to mean NOT prolonging life via various life support mechanisms.

That is not how I view calling 911.

While I do honor ones wishes... I have a very different view of the need for 911.......saving VS prolonging.

Other opinions/experiences?
