"do not resusitate" orders can be overridden by the family in Australia....

Speaking from experience, the non resusitation wish has been asked for and signed for when the patient is in the worst condition....pain and health wise. Then the patient gets well and it is forgotten, for anything up to *shrugs* could be years. Then they get sick again and it isn't mentioned. WHen the "care" isn't as it should be and it is queried - e.g. breathing aparatus's aren't turned on or connected, the reply is...DNR's have been signed. By this time the patient is unable to revoke what was signed for maybe years ago.

They have their good and bad points.
