Joint Oireachtas Committee on Assisted Dying
Protecting Vulnerable Individuals from Coercion: Discussion
Dr. Eric Kelleher:
It is wrong and I agree with the Deputy, but I want to really highlight it is also the reality of what many patients we come across face and how we address the biopsychosocial needs of patients. It is not necessarily enough just to treat somebody with medication or therapy; it is about adding in all those layers of support.
