My dad was 25 minutes dead when the ambulance picked him up, and the ER physician kept the CPR going. It was almost like the quack enjoyed beating and bruising, even cracking a few ribs on a defenseless frail old man, while his wife is hearing all this from the adjacent curtained bay.

I didn’t mind paying for the ambulance ride, or the emergency room fees, but that 5K the quack charged for beating on my already dead father’s chest for 3/4 of an hour was a little much. A-hole.

That’s what they are obligated to do without a DNR.

I am sorry that happened to you. Survival from in the field is less than 10%.

There is a criteria that determines whether or not a person is revivable.

This is a good thing because it removes Doctors from deciding themselves and following the set standards.

You Father’s wife should have been given a better place to wait where the sounds of attempted resuscitating your Father couldn’t be heard.
