The Voluntary Assisted Dying education module is now available via the Queensland Health website.
Developed in partnership with the Queensland University of Technology, the short online education module provides a general overview of the voluntary assisted dying legislation in Queensland for a broad range of healthcare workers across all settings. This is different to the mandatory training clinicians need to complete to become authorised voluntary assisted dying practitioners.
The education module takes approximately 45 minutes to complete and covers:
voluntary assisted dying in context
an overview of the voluntary assisted dying process in Queensland
healthcare worker participation in voluntary assisted dying (including roles, responsibilities, and obligations)
