California nurse refuses to give CPR to dying woman | World news | guardian.co.uk
It's all over the local news this morning. This nurse is going to find herself behind bars before this is over.
So she was only hired to be a consultant and it is against state mandate to provide medical care at an independent living facility...

I figured her hands were tied if it was independent living. Story over. She did all she could, and that was call 911.

"it's not my problem"
The family's statement to the Associated Press absolving an elder care home of blame came less than 1 1/2 hours before the company issued a statement saying the employee's failure to heed a 911 dispatcher's was the result of a misunderstanding of the company's emergency medical practices. The developments were the latest twist in a controversy following release of a 911 tape that recounts a dramatic 7-minute conversation on Feb. 26 between a dispatcher and a nurse who refused to cooperate with pleas for someone to start CPR as firefighters sped to the scene. The dispatcher insisted that the woman who identified herself as a nurse perform CPR or find someone willing to do it. Lorraine Bayless, an 87-year-old resident of Glenwood Gardens independent living home, later died.
Bayless' family said she was aware that Glenwood Gardens did not offer trained medical staff, yet opted to live there anyway. "It was our beloved mother and grandmother's wish to die naturally and without any kind of life prolonging intervention," said the statement. "We understand that the 911 tape of this event has caused concern, but our family knows that mom had full knowledge of the limitations of Glenwood Gardens and is at peace." The home's parent company, Brookdale Senior Living, later said, "This incident resulted from a complete misunderstanding of our practice with regards to emergency medical care for our residents. Glenwood Gardens is conducting a full internal investigation." The company said the employee was on voluntary leave during the process.
City fire officials say Bayless did not have a "do not resuscitate" order on file at the home. The family and the company have not commented.

The 911 operator commanded her to do CPR or find someone that could. To those who say George Zimmerman should have followed the command of 911, is this woman guilty of a crime too?

Wait so police are investigating and you're assuming she will be behind bars? Tell me how did you come to this well thought out conclusion?
I think people need to learn the difference between independent living and a nursing home.
First off her DNR status could have been posted in her room, therefore not on file with the facility. With it being independent I am going with residents keeping it in their room.
If she was still breathing when she called, she wasn't suppose to provide CPR.
This lady won't be put behind bars, and to say what she did was manslaughter is stupid.
There is not a difference!
You are not legally obligated to do as a 911 operator says.
Police are not even legally obligated to protect you. You can call 911 & they or the police could go take a nap while you are raped & you can't sue them.
Is too!
I suppose you can show us the law that says we have to follow 911 operators orders? How about some court cases?
