Medical Aid in Dying provides an option.
A choice.
The person who obtains the MAID prescription gets to decide if and when they will take the medication. No one will ever encourage or demand that they take it. Many people never take the medication, though they experience greater peace of mind knowing they have the option.
At End With Dignity, we are fully committed to helping people have the most possible control over their life, and their death. When the California End of Life Option Act went into effect in June of 2016, making it legal for doctors to support Medical Aid in Dying, we made the decision to help qualifying individuals go through the process.
For years, it has been our honor to help many patients and families avail themselves of this compassionate option. People seek out our support for two primary reasons: because they can’t find other physicians to help them, and/or because we have developed an excellent reputation for swiftly and expertly navigating patients and families through the Medical Aid in Dying process.
