The DC Treatment yes/no field is checked/set to true for critical care patients if life-support treatment is terminated.
The field is on the "Reg & ADL & Var" tab on the Patient Viewer in CCMDB.mdb.

See Transfer Ready date and time for more details.
Legacy Information
This field was also collected in Medicine until 2013-07-04. Collection stopped because the distinction is not clear enough for coding on a medicine ward. See: Comfort Care article.
