We have two whirlpools on each unit and every resident unless they refuse/have other preference or it is medically contraindicated gets a whirlpool 2x week.  We do not get orders.  We do get MD orders for therapeutic whirlpools for wounds etc.   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Annette M.

One of our RN's is stating that a whirlpool requires a doctor's order. What do you think? Annette
