How does a Christian approach issues at the end-of-life? This presentation will examine some of the basic moral principles that help to guide us in medical decision-making, and assist us in helping our loved ones to live out their final days with the true dignity each human person deserves. Particular issues such as physician-assisted suicide, MOLST, and the importance of having a Christian Health Care Proxy will also be included. The presentation will include an opportunity for Q & A and materials will be available.
The presenter will be Father Tad Pacholczyk, Ph.D., a priest of the Diocese of Fall River who serves as the senior ethicist at the National Catholic Bioethics Center in Pennsylvania. He speaks and writes extensively on bioethics and medical ethics and has participated in debates and roundtables on contemporary bioethics throughout North America and Europe.
