Isn't there some oath or ethic that requires DRs, RAs, EMTs, etc to at least try to resuscitate a person?
This also reminds me of one of my favorite healthcare recommendations: everyone here should have a living will, and as you get older/sicker/terminal, a POLST form that spells out your wishes for resuscitation and other life-saving or preserving treatment. It also would not kill you to have a durable power of attorney for healthcare, if you don't have a spouse, significant other or adult children readily available.
If you spell out your wishes, that will make the risk manager's job much easier when you are in the hospital and all of your relatives have different ideas on what should be done for you.
