LAMA and stopping treatment
DK-112
The patient's or family's decision is respected and recorded without argument. The doctor explains once; the decision is then confirmed twice, at two separate times.
No admission is open on this page. Type the admission number, or open this page from the patient's admission or from the emergency run sheet.
