Welcome to The Real DNR Podcast - a science-backed, candid roundtable hosted by a healthcare ethicist, an ICU physician, and a registered nurse. Together, we bring honest conversations to the topics most people avoid: aging, caregiving, serious illness, and end-of-life planning. Here, DNR means Decisions, Not Regrets. We believe the most meaningful care happens before a crisis, through open conversations, thoughtful planning, and understanding what matters most. Each episode blends medical, nursing, and ethics expertise with expert interviews and real lived experiences, so you can feel more informed and prepared as a future patient, caregiver, or decision-maker. Whether you’re supporting aging parents, navigating the sandwich generation, planning for your own future, or moving through grief, this podcast offers a safe and honest space to learn, reflect, and talk about what matters most.
