As a nurse, I’m not sure how to take your posts. Are you advocating the withholding of treatment in patients that you deem unqualified?

Absolutely not.

It isn’t up to me, and it shouldn’t be up to the government either..these things used to be a family decision and in a dignified way.

The government has ‘depersonalised’ medical decision making...for now.

Let me state it another way...

It isn’t my decision to with hold care, or the government’s. It’s the patients and the families.

but what is the basis for the families and patients decision? Is not at least a part of it financial?
