What Are Some Challenges in Respecting Resuscitation Preferences?
Despite the importance of honoring resuscitation preferences, several challenges can arise, including:
1. Lack of clear documentation: Incomplete or unclear documentation can lead to confusion among healthcare providers. 2. Family disagreements: Family members may have differing opinions on the patient's wishes, leading to conflicts. 3. Emergency situations: In the chaos of an emergency, there may be little time to review a patient's resuscitation preferences.
