The rule provides that an emergency medical technician (EMT) or paramedic will withhold or withdraw cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) from a patient if the EMT or paramedic is presented with or observes on the patient’s person a completed DH Form 1896, titled “Do Not Resuscitate Order,” that is signed by the patient’s physician. The proposed changes add autonomous advanced practice registered nurses and physician assistants as health care providers that are authorized to sign DH Form 1896, as permitted by Chapters 2020-9 and 2021-204, Laws of Florida; define the terms used in the rule, and clarify that the term “copy” includes a reproduction of the original that accurately reproduces the completed DH Form 1896, including handwriting, signatures, and the yellow background required on the original.
