@Oxfordite @doctorcaldwell @DouglasNatusch @Trisha_the_doc If untrained, I wouldn't have thought they should be doing CPR? This is re chat.

@C7RKY@doctorcaldwell@DouglasNatusch@Trisha_the_doc conundrum: fear the law and watch patient die, awaiting ambulance, or do your best.. -
@Oxfordite@doctorcaldwell@DouglasNatusch@Trisha_the_doc That's emergency situation tho. Understand that. But not what I had in mind here. -
@Oxfordite@doctorcaldwell@DouglasNatusch@Trisha_the_doc Eh? Sorry, I'm not sure I followed that? How does CPR fit into that situation? -
@C7RKY@doctorcaldwell@DouglasNatusch@Trisha_the_doc pt stops breathing. Carer on minimum wage sees no dnacpr so does his best at cpr. -
@Oxfordite@doctorcaldwell@DouglasNatusch@Trisha_the_doc Right...ok. Got you. That sounds like a whole other category for discussion to me -
@C7RKY@doctorcaldwell@DouglasNatusch@Trisha_the_doc indeed, apologies for tangent: but need remains: to know what to do if pt near death. -
@Oxfordite@doctorcaldwell@DouglasNatusch@Trisha_the_doc For carers I'd obv agree. For docs (who should know) it's more informing pt, imho -
@C7RKY@Oxfordite@doctorcaldwell@DouglasNatusch@Trisha_the_doc docs should make public more aware on DNACPR not just when in hospital! - 8 more replies

@C7RKY@Oxfordite@doctorcaldwell@DouglasNatusch@Trisha_the_doc Have known untrained rels talked thro by 999 staff till paramedic arrived -
@Pogster@Oxfordite@doctorcaldwell@DouglasNatusch@Trisha_the_doc That's a fair point. We drifted off our original topic with that one tbh
