Question 2

You are sent to a home for a cardiac arrest. You find a patient in cardiac arrest who has been under hospice care for end-stage AIDS. The nurse tells you that some family members who were present when the patient went into cardiac arrest felt that not providing care was not a prudent thing to do, so they called 911. She apologizes. A relative interrupts and says she doesn't care what the nurse says, she wants you to help her brother. What should your next action(s) be?
 
  A) Have the nurse provide the DNR. If it is in order, explain to the sister that you are bound to adhere to the orders.
  B) Provide all the interventions you can. You have no standing not to.
  C) Tell the sister that it is best to let him go.
  D) Start CPR and ACLS. Do a round of drugs, then call for orders for field termination of resuscitative efforts.
