In Louisiana, a Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order must be in writing on a specific form, signed by the patient's physician, and be made a part of the patient's medical record. Healthcare providers are required to honor a valid DNR order unless it has been revoked. Family members generally do not have the authority to override a valid DNR order in Louisiana.
