Comfort One
Your Comfort, Your Care, Your Choice

The Comfort One program has been eliminated from the Emergency Medical Services system and replaced by Provider Orders for Life Sustaining Treatment (POLST).

Existing Comfort One documents and bracelets are still honored by EMT personnel and your wishes will still be followed by the EMT personnel. You my wish to discuss POLST with your provider if you want your wishes expanded beyond withholding life sustaining treatment at home or wish the medical facilities and other medical providers to honor your wishes. A POLST document will be transferable from home to facility and will be honored by all personnel regardless of setting.
