Preparing for the death of a loved one who has chosen voluntary assisted dying

This Guide provides advice on what to do both before and after a friend or family member has died from accessing voluntary assisted dying in New South Wales.

It can be a difficult and stressful time when someone you care for is at the end of their life or has died.  This Guide is intended to give you information and options for further support as you need it.

Information about the voluntary assisted dying process is available on the NSW Health website and should be read in addition to reading this Guide. This can be found at What is the request process for voluntary assisted dying?​
