What do doctors consider important when preparing for a VAD law to come into force? Our new paper from the first stage of a longitudinal study looks at just that. ⁦@BenPWhite⁩ ⁦@WillmottLindy⁩ ⁦@HealthLawQUT⁩ https://t.co/Sao4wZzvO2

[Laura Ley Greaves @LeyGreaves]

A very interesting consideration in the practical application of VAD laws and competing considerations at play.

Reflections on a 7-year #VAD #voluntaryassisted dying research program @WillmottLindy @BenPWhite @HealthLawQUT #VANCON24

[Laura Ley Greaves @LeyGreaves]

Thank you @gogentle_aus for having me at #vadanz24 to share some research on changing perspectives of doctors on #VAD over the first year in Qld.

[Ben White @BenPWhite]

Presentation from @LeyGreaves on perspectives of doctors the first year of #VAD in Qld, compared to expectations before it was available. Changes of intended to actual participation, integrated into end of life but more education is needed.
