Absent a DNR, if someone presents to me an Advanced Health Care Directive... I'm calling base on it. If someone shows me they've got a Durable Power of Attorney for Healthcare Decisions... and they ask that I not work the patient, I'll not work the patient. Then again, someone in Hospice who dies, probably won't have 911 called. Yes, it happens sometimes, but most of the time, the Hospice RN goes out... and determines death.
