Decision Guides on Life-Sustaining Treatment

The California Coalition for Compassionate Care has released Decision Guides on several forms of life-sustaining treatment. 



Decision Guides explain the complex topics of life-sustaining treatments, using consumer-friendly language with evidence-based information. The Guides were developed with the help and guidance of healthcare professionals, and reflect the latest research on these interventions.



TOPICS INCLUDE: artificial hydration, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), mechanical ventilation, and tube feeding.
