The truth about assisted dying | Dr. Stefanie Green | TEDxSurrey

What if you could decide at the end of your life exactly when and where your death would happen, choose who would be with you, and ensure that it would be comfortable and dignified? You might never look at dying the same way again. In this powerful and revelatory talk, Dr. Stefanie Green, a pioneering practitioner of assisted dying pulls back the curtain to share what she has heard and see what she has seen; to expose the empowering, life-reflective nature of an assisted death. Dr. Stefanie Green spent 10 years in general practice and another 12 years working exclusively in maternity and newborn care before changing her focus in 2016 to medical assistance in dying (MAiD). Most recently, she is the author of an international bestselling book, This is Assisted Dying, a doctor’s story of empowering patients at the end of life, a memoir about her first year providing assisted dying in Canada. She is the co-founder and President of the Canadian Association of MAiD Assessors and Providers (CAMAP) – a national non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the multidisciplinary professionals that provide assisted dying across the country. She is co-lead of the Canadian MAiD Curriculum Project, a multiyear, federally funded project being developed to help standardize the clinical approach to care, educate and train clinicians new to the field, and to enhance the skills of those already involved. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
