Updated DNR/COLST Order Now Available

On June 1, 2022, the new and improved VT DNR/COLST order went into effect. This form was developed in collaboration with the Palliative Care Task Force, the Vermont Department of Health and with extensive input from clinicians across the state. As of June 1st, all new orders should be completed on this form if possible, although orders on previously approved VT DNR/COLST forms remain legal and valid.
