On June 12th, Dr. Nick Carr, known for his unwavering commitment to the topic of VAD, participated in an insightful interview on ABC Radio’s Life Matters. Joining him was Dr. Eliana Close, Senior Research Fellow at QUT, in a discussion titled ‘Balancing choice and protection: what are best ways to regulate voluntary assisted dying?‘
The interview addressed critical aspects of VAD legislation, with Dr. Carr’s perspective highlighted from the 7:20 minute mark.
The segment also features a particularly concerning comment from a listener who phoned in, stating that their husband faced procedural hurdles while accessing VAD, including needing a scan to confirm a prognosis of less than six months.
