Service Details

Description

Provider Orders for Life Sustaining Treatment (POLST) program is designed to improve the quality of care at the end of life. It provides a standard form that can be used for patients diagnosed with serious illnesses throughout Minnesota.


The POLST form identifies what types of medical treatment a patient wishes to receive at the end of life, and helps to ensure those wishes are conveyed to emergency services and other medical providers. The POLST form is used and recognized by hospital systems, long term care facilities, medical professionals, and emergency medical services throughout Minnesota.


POLST is a medical document, not a legal document and does not replace a health care directive
