• As of 1 July 2021, voluntary assisted dying (VAD) is a choice available to eligible people under the Voluntary Assisted Dying Act 2019.
• VAD involves a process to access medication and to enable a person to legally choose the manner and timing of their death.
• Put simply, voluntary assisted dying means that some adults can now ask for medical help to end their life if they have a disease or illness that is so severe it is going to cause their death and their suffering cannot be relieved in a manner tolerable to them.
• The term ‘voluntary assisted dying’ emphasises the voluntary nature of the choice of the person and their enduring capacity to make this decision.
