Here in Manitoba, A system of identifing DNR 
patients that are out of Hospital is being 
developed.

As practitioners we wish to have some form of 
ID attached to the patient so they may be 
quickly identified instead of family running 
around looking for documents.

Which jurisdictions are using DNR "braclets" 
or other form of ID that is attached to the 
patient? 
Of those areas where they are being used, how 
are they working out, ie. any problems?
Anything else that may be of use to us. 
Thanks in advance.
