Veterans Affairs Canada says it’s closing its investigation into stories that former service members had been provided medically assisted deaths.
The division says in a ultimate report right now that it has concluded the problem was “isolated” to a single worker who raised assisted dying as an possibility with 4 veterans.
Veterans Affairs says it reviewed a whole bunch of 1000’s of recordsdata and adopted up with a whole bunch of former service members and relations as a part of its investigation.
The division says it has issued new steerage and coaching forbidding workers from elevating assisted dying as an possibility.
Employees can discuss the advantages and help obtainable if a veteran has chosen medical help in dying.
But workers are in any other case informed to refer veterans to their major health-care suppliers.
