Meet the Website Team
Our purpose of this website was to make sure nursing students are not alone when it comes to situations with MAiD. Our goal is to make sure the future of the healthcare is more aware of MAiD and the support that is available for those who are treating a patient who applied for MAiD. MAiD is not only a difficult time for the family members and the patient, but it also affects healthcare workers a lot more then people know.
Karly - Nursing Student
Hello. My Name is Karly and I am a RPN student hopefully to bridge out to RN after I'm done schooling for RPN. Before I was a nursing student, I was a Physiotherapist Assistant (PTA) that worked at a long term care home. I am very passionate about this topic because I had a patient of mine who wanted to apply for MAiD. She had a Brain Tumour earlier in her life that was removed before she was diagnosed with Bi-polar Disorder. During her application process, it was very difficult for her care team and the faculty that she lived in to support her and the healthcare providers. They were unaware how much MAiD affects others and improper procedures occurred due to lack of education, awareness and services. My goal is to help prevent this from happening to other facilities and improve the education of MAiD for the healthcare workers. My research that I have included on this website is about MAiD and the home page.
