#VAD #MAiD #assisteddying
There are so many arguments in favour of Voluntary Assisted Dying being a choice - reflected in all our opinion polls.
But how do we address the common arguments made by those who oppose VAD in all circumstances?

Irish Doctors who support a patient's right to have an assisted death under specific circumstances have put together a policy document on Safeguards needed for #AssistedDying Is there enough political will to continue the good work of the Oireachtas? @FineGael @FineFail – at Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown, Ireland
Replying to @IDsMAiD1
Our proposed VAD model of care is an evidenced based application from similar jurisdictions to the Irish context.
The Joint Committee recommendations have been critiqued in our paper (above) and this should be factored in any plans to legislate for VAD.
We have outlined a clear model of how Voluntary Assisted Dying can operate in 🇮🇪. @FineGael & @fiannafailparty & others can access our Policy Document ⤵️ to support the introduction of VAD in the #programmeforgovernment.

Great to read about the international experiences shared at the recent @WFRtDS @EndOfLifeIE conference. Voluntary Assisted Dying needs to be in the next programme for government. #timetolegislate irishtimes.com/health/your-w…

Wonderful opening to #WFRtDS2024 @todowd outlining the primacy of General Practice in listening to patient’s ideas and concerns - so important as we consider legislation on Voluntary Assisted Dying. #VAD #MAiD @IDsMAiD1 @EndOfLifeIE
Supporting choice at the end of life, has become the mainstream position internationally.
