I think you may be talking about a POLST [physician's order for life sustaining treatment]? You can choose the level of care you want if you are not able to verbalize it. I also have one, keep a copy in my glove compartment in car if there is an accident. Also, my medical alert bracelet has DNR on it as a line item.

I also had my Dr. sign POLST. Have one on my fridge and with my power of attorney. Thanks for the idea of keeping it in my car. Maria.
