Wednesday Nov 15, 2023
Has a patient or family member ever asked you about medical assistance in dying (MAiD)? If someone did ask you, what would you say in this conversation?
In this episode, I explore that situation with Jane Slemon, a director of care at a hospice in British Columbia. We discuss her work with individuals who are navigating the end of life and who sometimes want to talk with nurses about MAiD. We discuss those dynamics and how nurses can be supported in having these conversations.
