Because normally you would code a patient if they are dying. These patients we are not coding if they lose a pulse

He has said in previous posts OLOL. I guess we know their policy now.

Did you get any guidance for spouses? Wife working Covid Unit and she said they haven't given her anything. Did find a stack of N95s in my file cabinet at work, so I got that going for me.

Any covid pt that looses a pulse will not receive cpr. Obese, black, white, CHINESE. Don’t matter

N95 are hard to come by. Only using if pt comes off the vent and we are exposed to tones of droplets

So if i'm obese but can run a marathon and have the lung capacity of an elite athlete am I good? Exactly tell the whole story a-hole.
Posted on 3/23/20 at 3:35 pm to tigerskin
That’s the policy in every hospital btw. All pts at umc are made a DNR when sent to the icu

After witnessing the brutality of it, Im going with the fact that the effort would spray COVID all over the space, and responders.
Too risky for everyone alive at that point, and for the next extremely ill person to occupy that space

Thinning of the herd.

Please show me an obese person with great lung capacity. I’ll wait
