Texas Bill Gives Doctors Authority to Deny CPR to PatientsFrom: LifeNews.comA measure in the Texas legislature is under fire from a national pro-life group that say it would allow doctors the right to refuse giving CPR to patients. The National Right to Life Committee is calling for the defeat of a Texas bill – S.B. 303 – that would allow doctors to impose “Do Not Resuscitate (DNR)” orders on patients even if doing so would violate the patient’s express wishes. |
