Description des services:

Independent witness program connects patients wanting to request medical assistance in dying with trained independent witnesses who will sign a Clinician Aid A form affirming the individual's intention * volunteers may also serve as a proxy for the patient if the patient is too frail or physically unable to sign the form on their own * volunteers will visit the patient at home or meet on-line.
Note: Federal legislation changes in March 2021 resulted in the need for only one independent witness and that witness may be a health professional or community care worker or staff person at a hospital or long term care facility.
