2scents -“Since that would have been the factor of not providing CPR, she would have either mentioned it to the dispatcher, or she would have told that to someone.”

She could have mentioned it to the dispatcher, but the fact that she didn’t – doesn’t mean she didn’t know about the DNR.

“This was not the reason she stated on why she refused to let the dispatcher talk to someone else.”

Because she didn’t think that it was relevant, which it isn’t, because she obviously wasn’t holding the DNR in her hand. If she did have a copy – she would have given it to EMS when they arrived.
