OLTCC Community of Practice: Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID), A Three View Panel Discussion

Join us for a thoughtful and multidimensional Community of Practice session exploring Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) through the clinical, ethical, and operational lenses of long-term care.

This session brings together three experienced leaders Dr. Rhonda Collins, D. Ben Robert, and Dr. Sandy Shamon who will share their perspectives on MAID in LTC.

The discussion will examine how clinicians navigate resident-centered decision-making, communicate with families, and balance ethical considerations with the evolving legislative framework. Panelists will also reflect on practical issues such as documentation, interdisciplinary coordination, and the challenges that arise when supporting residents and care teams through the MAID process.

This session is designed for LTC clinicians and leaders seeking a deeper, more nuanced understanding of MAID and its role in providing compassionate, high-quality care in long-term care homes.
