Is It Illegal to Ignore a DNR in a Hospital or Nursing Home?
Ignoring a Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order in a hospital or nursing home is more than a medical mistake—it can be a violation of patient rights and the law. Families may pursue claims of negligence, battery, or wrongful death when a DNR is disregarded. At Lexcura Summit, we help attorneys build strong cases with record analysis, chronologies, and litigation-ready reports.
