Assisted Dying & Mental Health Part 2, The Veteran

Synopsis

In this second of a two-part series on Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) and mental health, Erin is joined by Mark Meincke, a Veteran and host of the Operation Tango Romeo podcast focused on trauma recovery. Meincke made national headlines this fall when he revealed that Veterans Affairs Canada had already suggested to several Veterans that they consider MAID on assistance calls that originated with a Veteran requesting support for mental injuries. Mark also bravely discusses his own difficult journey with Post Traumatic Stress Injury and how important it is to get Veterans the mental health support they need when they are most vulnerable. The Veteran demonstrates that the Doctor's concerns from episode one are well-founded.
