Greendale House Palliative & Hospice Care remains steadfast in our commitment to the core values of palliative care: alleviating suffering, preserving dignity, and enhancing the quality of life for patients and their families.
Discussions surrounding medically assisted dying should be considered within the broader framework of palliative and hospice care. Our specialised services focus on symptom management, compassionate communication, and advanced care planning to ensure patients receive holistic support.
While we recognise the complexity of end-of-life decisions, medically assisted dying falls outside the scope of palliative and hospice care. As such, APCC (The Association of Palliative Care Centres) members do not currently take a position on these matters. Our priority remains advocating for equitable access to comprehensive, high-quality palliative care, ensuring that all patients facing life-threatening illnesses receive the dignity, comfort, and support they deserve.
Please reach out to us if you have any questions about our palliative and hospice services.
