Irish Doctors supporting Medical Assistance in Dying are a group of medical doctors who support choices for people at the end of their lives.

We have a strong belief in individual patient autonomy,

We believe that a person approaching the end of their life, should be provided with accessible, high-quality and evidence-based care to minimise suffering and support their wishes.

Every citizen should be able to access their choice of medical care, including palliative care and Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD).

Patient’s individual choices should be discussed, encouraged and promoted. Any genuine choice by a patient, including MAiD, should be respected and supported.

We will advocate for the introduction of MAiD in Ireland, through public advocacy and workshops with doctors in Ireland. We want to deliver safe, regulated and high-quality care to our patients, including Assisted Dying. We are commited to developing the educational and professional standards to make this happen.
