question 3 of 3
select the best answer: unlike advance directives, advance directive orders are signed by healthcare providers. which of the is an example of an advance directive order?
medical power of attorney (poa)
do not disturb (dnd)
living will
do not resuscitate (dnr)

Explanation:

Advance directive orders signed by healthcare providers (as opposed to patient - initiated advance directives) include orders like Do Not Resuscitate (DNR). A Medical Power of Attorney (POA) and Living Will are patient - initiated advance directives. Do Not Disturb (DND) is not an advance directive order related to healthcare in this context. So the correct option is the one related to a provider - signed advance directive, which is Do Not Resuscitate (DNR).

Answer:

D. Do Not Resuscitate (DNR)
