I don't know of any regualation that requires updating a dnr
yearly. We don't here in my facility. But I do try to visit with
the ones who are a full code when they start to decline physically, or at
least once a year. If I remember to.
In
VA in the past we had to have A DNR redone every year, in the past few years
the DNR was changed to a Durable DNR & only has to be completed once.
The wording is different as to cover all health care personnel, not just
EMS.

it has to be updated, ours are not. There is no regulation about any
medicare meetings.

I have 2 questions- first, is there a reg
that you have to have a weekly medicare meeting to discuss your medicare
A patients? Or if you do it in morning stand up is it sufficient
to cover it.
Second, Is there a law or reg that a
DNR has to be updated yearly? Thanks in advance for your
help.
