Assisted Living Policy Ruled by Emotions and Not Compassion

The Assisted Living Federation of America has decided to consider giving 911 dispatchers authority to rescind your signed DNR orders, or your  request to avoid CPR treatment.

It seems that the usual sounds made by a dying woman  so unnerved those who heard the recent Bakersfield 911 tape, that they are willing to order bone crushing CPR, even when it is not wanted.

Yes,  a 911 dispatcher who has no access to your medical records, does not have as much training as an RN, and does not your current state of health or your personal guiding principles, is going to have final authority to give you treatment that YOU Do Not Want!!!

This is just as stupid as allowing federal  government bureaucrats to run all of the health care systems of the United States!

The inmates are running the asylum.
