This webinar (1h 10m, in French) presented by the Federation of Quebec Alzheimer Societies examines the clinical, social and ethical questions that the anticipated requests for medical assistance in dying (MAID) may raise for both individuals diagnosed with major neurocognitive disorders and their caregivers. As well as providing an overview on how the MAID process works, the webinar explores the real and perceived responsibilities of caregiving.
Maryse Soulières, social worker and professor at the Université de Montréal’s École de travail social, shares insights from a research project on the issues surrounding medical assistance in dying. The webinar first aired on May 16, 2025.
