As stated above, Code Status essentially means the type of emergent treatment a person would or would not receive if their heart or breathing were to stop.
Full Code Full code means that if a persons heart stopped beating and/or they stopped breathing, all resuscitation procedures will be provided to keep them alive.
While a DNR simply states that no attempts should be made to restart breathing or restart the heart if it stops, an AND order is used to ensure that only comfort measures, designed to provide excellent control of pain or other symptoms, are taken.
A code status comes in three types. Full code, DNR-CCA and DNR-CC. (Some institutions may have more options.) A full code means that medical personal would do everything possible to save your life in a medical emergency.
State of Ohio A Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order means that CPR is not to be conducted in case of cardiac or respiratory arrest. In the state of Ohio there are two DNR orders: DNR-CCA (Comfort Care Arrest) and DNR-CC (Comfort Care). Only a physician or Licensed Independent Practitioner can write a DNR order.

Tips on How to Discuss Code Status Generally, when you first get the patient during your admission paperwork and assessment this is the best time to ask. If you ask the patient during other times, be sure you explain why you are asking because they may think something is majorly wrong. Sit down and educate them!
Full code status is recommended for individuals who are healthy and do not have multiple medical conditions. Limited code means that only specific resuscitation procedures will be used during a medical emergency.
Talk with your physician and family about these options. A code status comes in three types. Full code, DNR-CCA and DNR-CC. (Some institutions may have more options.)
