Not to mention you should do 30 compressions before bagging if you were to do it the way it’s taught

Those were hardly compressions
None of these nurses should have any future contact with patients.

If he had DNR, do they still attempt CPR?

No, that's the point of a DNR

Willing to bet these "Nurses" were actually CNAs or LPN's at best..

Do not resuscitate (DNR), also known as no code or allow natural death, is a legal order written either in the hospital or on a legal form to withhold cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) or advanced cardiac life support (ACLS), in respect of the wishes of a patient
I hope the family of the deceased owns the nursing home plus a couple million when they are done litigating. As I said, sadly-- in nursing homes daily call bells are slow to roll because of lack of staff and nursing shortages. But this is an entirely different story. Once they arrived they were laughing and BSing and did nothing until after he was dead. (She knew her halfassed 6 compressions wouldn't help) she only did them as a mockery-- to say she tried.

No pulse ox reading, the "6" chest compressions were a joke. She didn't even break ribs. He appears to be on a nasal cannula and it came off. Then they just reposition him in bed. I hope this entire place gets shut down, the staff lose their license. NH staff are the worse. So many patients come into the ED from NH with nasty decubitus ulcers who are septic and wait days before calling EMS. Then staff doesn't remember if the patient was on antibiotics, if meds were given that day and if they are DNR they forget to send the paperwork with EMS. Then the ER doc intubates the patient and when the family gets there they are pissed.

The RN was the one in the interview and it doesn't matter, an LPN or CNA are trained to perform the life saving measures. The RN's actions are deplorable. Those under her were ordered and trained to be deplorable but they knew better.

And yet they charge 80k a year to live there

If you want some added reading and context in this case, I was able to pull up the LPN's "Voluntary Surrender of License".

After reading the document (with her hand-written corrections), I'm even more convinced of the fact that she is a sad, sick, incompetent, and uncaring excuse of a human being.
All her corrections serve to do is show how callous, lazy, and substandard her care is.

wow, she claims she did sternum rubs and a nurses chart 'may have said' the son said he could be a DNR.
unreal...
A DNR is usually crystal clear. Also, she was a midnight LPN, most likely a lazy POS.

No 90 something year old should be getting CPR. They won’t survive it

This scares me so much about the idea of my folks ever going into a home.

BS. and he was 89 and that is not your call.

Nailed it.

Nope... She was an LPN. In fact she was the night shift supervisor of the other LPN's in the facility.

If they would have been bedside as soon as the call light was activated he wouldn't have coded most likely. If anything they call EMS and notify the doctor on staff. That staff knew if he was DNR or not. If you don't know, you AUTOMATICALLY run a code, CPR, intubation, etc.

I didn’t say that it was. And I was expressing my medical opinion. It’s not relevant to what the nurse should have been done but it was likely merciful even though that’s not what she was trying to do
