RCN members: Have your say on assisted suicide

Published: 05 May 2009

RCN members now only have a short time to respond to the key RCN consultation on assisted suicide. To help members understand the key points on this important issue, a short (four minute) film has been produced which outlines the key issues associated. Go to the film.

A briefing document, which details the current legal and parliamentary positions on the debate, which vary between the four UK countries, has also been produced. The briefing lists current arguments both for and against assisted suicide and potential issues relating to nursing practice.

To have your say on the consultation, complete the online survey by 22 May 2009.
