A research study is being done of individuals who have been approved for medical aid in dying and/or their caregivers across the country. The study is a brief survey followed by a 45-60 minute interview on how medical aid in dying has impacted individuals quality of life, coping, hopes, as well as any barriers they may have experienced.
This study will gather valuable information about the experiences of individuals and caregivers who are seeking to utilize medical aid in dying. These findings will be used to develop educational and support initiatives for terminally ill individuals, their families, medical providers and medical aid-in-dying support/advocacy agencies.
The research team is composed of palliative care social workers, thanatologists and grief counselors. They recognize the complexities involved in pursuing medical aid in dying and appreciate those who are willing to share their experiences.
