GA Code § 31-39-1 (2021)
2021 Georgia Code|Title 31 - Health|Chapter 39 - Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation|§ 31-39-1. Legislative Findings and Intent

 The General Assembly finds that although cardiopulmonary resuscitation has proved invaluable in the reversal of sudden, unexpected death, it is appropriate for an attending physician, in certain circumstances, to issue an order not to attempt cardiopulmonary resuscitation of a patient where appropriate consent or authorization has been obtained.The General Assembly further finds that there is a need to establish and clarify the rights and obligations of patients, their families or representatives, and health care providers regarding cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the issuance of orders not to resuscitate.The General Assembly further finds that, in the interest of protecting individual autonomy, cardiopulmonary resuscitation in some circumstances may cause loss of patient dignity and unnecessary pain and suffering. In recognition of the considerable uncertainty in the medical and legal professions as to the legality of implementing orders not to resuscitate, in recognition of the request of the Supreme Court of Georgia for legislative guidance in this area, and in recognition of the dignity and privacy which patients have a right to expect, the General Assembly declares that the laws of the State of Georgia shall recognize the right of patients or other authorized persons to instruct physicians and other health care personnel to refrain from cardiopulmonary resuscitation.    (Code 1981, §31-39-1, enacted by Ga. L. 1991, p. 1853, § 1; Ga. L. 1994, p. 672, § 1.)
GA Code § 31-39-3 (2021)
2021 Georgia Code|Title 31 - Health|Chapter 39 - Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation|§ 31-39-3. Patient Presumed to Consent to Administration of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation; Patient's Order Not to Resuscitate; Health Care Facilities Not Required to Expand to Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

  Every patient shall be presumed to consent to the administration of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the event of cardiac or respiratory arrest, unless there is consent or authorization for the issuance of an order not to resuscitate. Such presumption of consent does not presume that every patient shall be administered cardiopulmonary resuscitation, but rather that every patient agrees to its administration unless it is medically futile.   Every adult shall be presumed to have the capacity to make a decision regarding cardiopulmonary resuscitation unless determined otherwise in writing in the patient's medical record pursuant to this Code section or pursuant to a court order.When an order not to resuscitate is requested by an adult with decision-making capacity, such order shall be presumed, unless revoked pursuant to Code Section 31-39-6, to be the direction of such person regarding resuscitation.   Nothing in this chapter shall require a health care facility, any other facility, or a health care provider to expand its existing equipment and facilities to provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation.     (Code 1981, §31-39-3, enacted by Ga. L. 1991, p. 1853, § 1; Ga. L. 1994, p. 672, § 1.)
GA Code § 31-39-5 (2021)
2021 Georgia Code|Title 31 - Health|Chapter 39 - Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation|§ 31-39-5. Cancellation of Order Not to Resuscitate

  An attending physician for whose patient an order not to resuscitate has been issued pursuant to subsection (c), (d), or (e) of Code Section 31-39-4 shall examine that patient at such intervals as determined periodically by the physician to determine whether the patient still qualifies as a candidate for nonresuscitation, unless that order has been canceled or consent thereto revoked as provided in this chapter.That physician shall record such determination in the patient's medical chart.Failure to comply with this subsection shall not invalidate that order.   If the order not to resuscitate was entered pursuant to subsection (c), (d), or (e) of Code Section 31-39-4 and the attending physician who issued the order or, if that attending physician is unavailable, another attending physician, at any time determines that the patient no longer qualifies as a candidate for nonresuscitation, the attending physician or the physician's designee shall immediately include such determination in the patient's chart, cancel the order, and notify the patient, the person who consented to the order, and all health care facility staff responsible for the patient's care of the cancellation.   If an order not to resuscitate was entered pursuant to subsection (c), (d), or (e) of Code Section 31-39-4 and the patient at any time regains decision-making capacity, the attending physician who issued the order or, if that attending physician is unavailable, another attending physician, shall immediately determine if the patient consents to the order not to resuscitate and, if the patient does not so consent, the attending physician or the physician's designee shall cancel the order by an appropriate entry on the record and notify all health care facility staff responsible for the patient's care of the cancellation.     (Code 1981, §31-39-5, enacted by Ga. L. 1991, p. 1853, § 1; Ga. L. 1994, p. 672, § 1; Ga. L. 1995, p. 722, § 2.2.)

2021 Georgia Code|Title 31 - Health|Chapter 39 - Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation|§ 31-39-6. Revocation of Consent to Order Not to Resuscitate

  A patient may, at any time, revoke his or her consent to an order not to resuscitate by making either a written or an oral declaration or by any other act evidencing a specific intent to revoke such consent which is communicated to or in the presence of an attending physician, nurse, physician assistant, caregiver, health care professional, or emergency medical technician.   Any parent or authorized person may at any time revoke his or her consent to an order not to resuscitate a patient by making either a written or an oral declaration or by any other act evidencing a specific intent to revoke such consent which is communicated to or in the presence of an attending physician, nurse, physician assistant, caregiver, health care professional, or emergency medical technician.   Any physician who is informed of or provided with a revocation of consent pursuant to this Code section shall, either by himself or herself or by designee, immediately include the revocation in the patient's chart, cancel the order, and notify any health care facility staff responsible for the patient's care of the revocation and cancellation. Any member of the nursing staff, or a physician assistant, caregiver, health care professional, or emergency medical technician who is informed of or provided with a revocation of consent pursuant to this Code section shall immediately notify a physician of such revocation.     (Code 1981, §31-39-6, enacted by Ga. L. 1991, p. 1853, § 1; Ga. L. 1994, p. 672, § 1; Ga. L. 1995, p. 722, § 4; Ga. L. 2011, p. 379, § 3/HB 275.)

Any order not to resuscitate evidenced pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) of this Code section may be revoked as provided in Code Section 31-39-6 and may be canceled as provided in Code Section 31-39-5.
