Do Not Resuscitate - How does this work?

I'll spare you the details. And trust me you don't want pics.
How does this work for first aid type things, like if a person falls down and breaks a bone, or has trouble eating, etc? Random bladder infection, etc.
I'm not in a position to ask the provider, I'm not HIPAA'd in yet. Actualy, I am HIPAA'd in, but I would have to drive 4 hours and produce a bunch of paperwork.
What says the OT?

If you start dying, they don't attempt to keep you living.
If you're just injured, you still get medical treatment. Granted, if there is a persistent serious medical condition, that it gets more complicated but that's not what you asked.

A do-not-resuscitate order, or DNR order, is a medical order written by a doctor. It instructs health care providers not to do cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) if a patient's breathing stops or if the patient's heart stops beating.

Are you literally retarded? You can still get stitches or a flu shot if you have a DNR fricktard

It's not as easy as not resuscitating.
That's how it works.

DNR orders are medical orders and legally binding documents which indicate that a patient does not wish for life-saving interventions to be provided in the case of cardiopulmonary arrest.
They do not preclude ordinary/routine medical care, first aid, or comfort/palliation. They may similarly be suspended for urgent or elective surgical procedures, but only after detailed discussion with the surgeon and anesthesiologist and only with the patient's informed consent.

If you fall down and you're dying ems will come save your life rather than try to look through legal paperwork. If you code in the hospital chances are they won't revive you if they have all this sorted out ahead of time.

Treat any injury or illness.
Do not use cpr, shock or machines to prolong life?

Get it notarized. Some hospitals will ignore it and tell your family they're obligated to treat.

It means do not resuscitate not do not treat. So if an arm is broken-you do what’s necessary. No you can elect to withdraw care if it comes to that or not to escalate if circumstances warrant that, but that’s a discussion that needs to occur with patient, family, and providers.

I’m not sure what you are asking. The guidelines for a DND are pretty straightforward. It’s not like they take you out to the pasture when you roll an ankle

This has not been the case at hospitals I have held privileges at. You are either mistaken or referring to EMTALA provisions in cases of undocumented DNAR.
To sum it up: it is not generally in accordance with the concept of autonomy to ignore a patient's medical wishes. And yes, from another ethical standpoint it would not be consistent with the principles of the Oath. This is to say nothing of the obvious legal ramifications of ignoring a documented DNR/advanced directive/living will/etc.

If you have a DNR then doctors can't bleed your bank account dry so naturally they do everything they can to ignore them.

Resuscitate is not what you do
