Presentation:

March 21, 2024  2 PM   This event is for hospice personnel and is not open to the public.

The presentation will highlight California’s 2016 End of Life Option Act (EOLA)), also known as Medical Aid in Dying (MAiD)—as well as subsequent changes to the law. The background, overview, and specifics of this law such as who is eligible, the process for obtaining the prescription from the patient’s physician, and ingestion guidelines will be outlined. Latest trends, ongoing barriers and issues, and opportunities for collaboration will also be discussed.

Presenter: Lynne Calkins, CRNP, member of the Board of Directors of End of Life Choices California, will introduce our organization and the free services of personal support and education provided through a dedicated team of volunteers.

EOLCCA’s Mission

End of Life Choices California’s mission is to provide Californians the information and support to successfully navigate their legal end-of-life options.

Presentations

Topics include Advance Care Planning; the California End of Life Option Act (EOLA); eligibility requirements for Medical Aid in Dying (MAiD); and Voluntary Stopping Eating and Drinking (VSED)–a legal option in all 50 states. Our volunteers are very knowledgeable about both hospice and palliative care and can explain the differences between the two services.
