All are invited to a free afternoon workshop with Patient Choices Vermont (PCV) on Saturday, October 4 at 1:00 p.m. at the First Universalist Parish of Chester, 211 North Street, in Chester Vermont. The workshop is free and is designed to provide information and answer your questions about Vermont’s Act 39.
Patient Choices Vermont (PCV)is dedicated to education about Medical Aid in Dying and end-of-life choice in Vermont. Vermont’s Patient Choice and End of Life Law (Act 39), enacted in May 2013, enables people who are terminally ill and who are capable of making their own medical decisions the option to request and receive medication that they can use to bring about a peaceful death if and when they so choose.
PCV provides educational events and workshops for community groups, hospice organizations, doctors, nurses, and students. Each session provides opportunities to learn, share stories and ask questions. These conversations are life affirming and empowering. People often discuss their experiences with the dying process of loved ones and express their desires for what they would or would not like when they consider their end-of-life choices.
We hope you'll come to learn about Act 39.
