Abstract
In a previous article in the British Journal of Cardiac Nursing, Richard Griffith (2013) reviewed the lawfulness of do not attempt resuscitation (DNAR) orders in relation to the Supreme Court decision on futile treatment in Aintree University Hospitals Foundation Trust v James [2013] . In this article, he considers recent cases of wilful neglect to come before the Court of Appeal, and argues that rather a failure to provide cardiac pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) when required to do so is likely to result in prosecution for wilful neglect.
