Signing Requirements
The Utah POLST form must be signed by the patient and a health care provider.[1]
Two medical healthcare providers must sign the document for pediatric patients.
A Utah do not resuscitate form is a medical order used to tell health care providers not to attempt to revive a patient if they have no pulse and are not breathing. Utah uses the Provider Order for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST) form, which contains a DNR and other preferences for life-sustaining treatments. A patient can revoke a Utah POLST at any time.
