How many DNR requests are rejected

East Cheshire NHS Trust did not have the information requested.

Dear East Cheshire NHS Trust,

I would like to find out the following:

How many DNR orders were overturned between the years 2007-2012 that led to the attempted resuscitation of a patient (whether that was successful or not)?

How many DNR orders were overturned between the years 2012-2017 that led to the attempted resuscitation of a patient (whether that was successful or not)?

How does your Trust receive DNR Orders from patients?

Yours faithfully,

Elisa Mitchell
