Perioperative Registered Nurses: A Case Study
It is important for the healthcare team to be aware of the patient’s do-not-resuscitate status when caring for patients in all settings. Effective communication among staff is essential when transferring care or “handing off” a patient from one provider to another.

Patients should be provided with informed consent for anesthesia and surgery in relation to the DNR prior to initiating any procedures (Association of Perioperative Registered Nurses, 2014, para. 2).
