What options do New Yorkers have for end-of-life care if they have serious illnesses? Medical aid in dying has been authorized in ten states and Washington, D.C., but not yet in New York. Legislation is pending in Albany.
A representative from an organization called Compassion and Choices will be in Rochester on Thursday to discuss the subject. She joins us to talk about the current state medical aid in dying what New Yorkers need to know. Our guests:
- Corinne Carey, senior campaign director for Compassion and Choices
- Rev. Richard Gilbert, minister emeritus for First Unitarian Church
- Scott Barraco, advocate sharing a personal story
