What DNR says is.....if I am in a condition not likely to survive I do not want to be resuscitated. It doesn't say don't resuscitate no matter what.
People seem to miss that point....look at the wording....this is an issue very often in caring for patients.
It typically applies to the terminally ill patient whose quality of life is so poor that they do not want their dying process to be reversed.
If you are at home and don't want someone to help you the best way is simply don't call anyone....but if you do call...you will most likely be helped and perhaps even saved.
