Description

Medical aid in dying (MAID) is legal in Vermont—but what does it actually look like? And where do you go if you don't want to die at home?

Kasey March, a certified MAID Wayfinder and end-of-life doula with Doula Care for Dying, guides us through the realities of medical aid in dying in Vermont—from the process itself to finding a safe, appropriate location to take the prescribed medicine.

This conversation addresses:

• What MAID actually is (and what it isn't)
• The role of a MAID doula or Wayfinder
• Why people travel to Vermont from out of state to access MAID
• Options for Vermont residents who don't want to die at home
• Common myths and misconceptions about medical aid in dying
• How families are supported throughout the process
• What questions to ask if you're considering MAID

This is a robust, revealing conversation that expands understanding of this deeply personal end-of-life option. Whether you're considering MAID for yourself, supporting a loved one, or simply want to understand this aspect of end-of-life care, Kasey offers compassionate, clear insights.

Death on your own terms—that's what MAID makes possible.
