“My job is helping people end their lives”

from NAKED VOICE

We’re honoured to host Dr. Bhawani ‘Bu’ O’Brien, a compassionate leader in voluntary assisted dying (VAD) based in Australia, for an inspiring and thought-provoking conversation. Dr. O’Brien shares stories about her journey, the profound privilege of helping patients in their final moments, and the emotional and ethical complexities of this work. As the future of VAD is hotly debated at the political level now, this conversation provides timely insights into how these decisions impact patients, families, and healthcare providers. And according to the campaign group Dignity in Dying [https://www.dignityindying.org.uk] “84% of the public support the choice of assisted dying for terminally ill adults”. Join us for a deeply human discussion about dignity, choice, and the realities of end-of-life care. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
