Discussing a DNR Order in Spanish

Learn Spanish for discussing a DNR order and a more palliative approach to care. We are revisiting a dialogue from our Palliative Care series, where a doctor discusses code status with the daughter of a patient admitted to the hospital with pneumonia. In the first half of this dialogue, the doctor explained CPR. In this second half of the dialogue, the doctor explains that when a person is in a fragile state of health, cardiopulmonary resuscitation often fails to achieve the desired results.LEVEL - ADVANCEDAccess full show notes, the Quizlet set and the PDF for this lesson within our Spanish for Emergencies course! ONE-QUESTION SURVEY: Do you want us to do the podcast totally in Spanish?
