Tough situation. My 92 year old MIL is in an independent living facility, and she has a DNR already. I can also understand the policy too -with nearby FD / EMTs to assist and assess I would prefer their response to my 87 year old mother. CPR on the aged can be wicked brutal. Not how I want to go, frankly. Tough call Arney. My perspective on life saving measures changed once I passed 50 and watched parents and friend age and die in different circumstances. I saw my dad die in assisted living, and I'm watching my wife go very slowly of brain cancer. So I can envision this policy, but can't tell you if its the right one. Possibly start with a deep breath, and the old adage, judge not lest ye be judged.
