Carol Taylor - What Constitutes Good Care at the End of Life (video)

The National Press Foundation posted this 45-minute webinar with Carol Taylor.  It covers what constitutes good care at the end of life; the ethical discussion around the right to die, including Brittany Maynard and other current cases. 







I particularly liked her ranking of mechanisms of last resort from least to most controversial (separating VSED from non-voluntary VSED):

1. Standard pain management


2. Forgoing life-sustaining treatment


3. VSED


4. PSU


5. Aid in Dying


6. Non-voluntary VSED


7. Voluntary Active Euthanasia
