It doesn't have to be the healthcare professional that starts the conversation. The patient and family should also be active in considering/voicing this.
CPR is not a treatment for #ordinarydying. Every instance of futile CPR - which is what will happen if nobody has sorted out the protection of a DNACPR for someone whose life is coming to an end - is a tragedy. Please, doctors, nurses, patients, families - #havetheconversation.
Awards are open, come on people...if you know someone or a team who's standing out with their urology or uro-oncology practice, making a difference, nominate them. It's very easy
