When Emily and Steve arrived early this morning they found a crash cart in the room with Gene.  When Emily and Steve arrived early this morning, they found a crash cart in the room and understood that he had a significant heart rate drop.  Emily, Russ, Steve, and Alan met with the staff of Kindred this morning to review Gene's living will.

The decision has been made according to Gene's wishes that no resuscitation efforts will be made.  He will continue to receive the care that he now has, and every effort will be made to prevent him from having pain.

Hospice has been called, but as of now there is not a schedule for when they will be able to meet with the family. 

This blog will be updated as new information is available.
