Assisted Dying Bill: The New Doctor Rule

Big update on the assisted dying debate: the BMA wants terminally ill patients to meet face-to-face with a specialist end-of-life doctor before anything else happens. It’s all about making sure no one’s being pressured and that people actually know their options (hello, palliative care!). The bill’s moving to the House of Lords, but there’s a lot of talk about funding and protecting both patients and doctors. Wild stat: nearly half of UK adults worry about having a painful or undignified death. Thoughts? #AssistedDying #EndOfLifeCare #UKNews #Health
