A do not resuscitate (DNR) form is a medical document that communicates to medical staff that a patient does not want CPR if their heart or breathing stops. It will sometimes also relay an individual’s preference for artificial nutrition and other end-of-life care. Each state has their own form, laws, and signing requirements.
