Maine's Death with Dignity Act
with Valerie Lovelace
There is still a lot of misunderstanding and misinformation about Maine's compassionate end-of-life care option. Many providers and patients in Maine are not familiar with Maine's Death with Dignity Act. Since September 2019, the law permits physicians to practice medical aid-in-dying under specific circumstances. Learn the facts and, if qualified, the right to access medical aid in dying if they choose. Join this class to get fact-based information and the details you need to know about Maine's law, how to have the conversation with your physician, how to qualify for the law and support your loved one who may be qualify.
The day before the Zoom meeting an email will be sent out to all who register with the Zoom meeting ID and passcode.
