EnglishAbstract
This paper deals with changes in code status policy in Ontario and endorses a new College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO) policy. We argue that the recent policy changes in this area necessitate an active educational strategy around end-of-life care to prevent harm to dying patients.
