Do you need a dnr to use hospice?

No, you do not need a do not resuscitate (DNR) order to use hospice. Hospice is a type of care that provides comfort and support to people who are terminally ill, and it does not require a DNR order. However, many people who choose hospice care also choose to have a DNR order in place, as it can help to ensure that their wishes are respected if their heart or breathing stops. DNR orders are not legally required, but they can be a helpful way to communicate your wishes to your healthcare team.
