An attending physician who issues an out-of-hospital DNR order for a patient shall maintain a copy of that order in the patient’s medical record and shall document in that order whether the physician also provided an out-of-hospital DNR bracelet or necklace, or both. If the attending physician provides an out-of-hospital DNR bracelet or necklace after issuing the out-of-hospital DNR order, the physician shall document the patient’s medical record to reflect that the bracelet or necklace was also provided for the patient.
