"What if we created another class of medical professionals known as death doulas, who could fill a gap between treatment doctors and hospice workers? During childbirth, some women engage a doula to act as their advocate, ensuring that, as much as possible, the woman's wishes are followed. Such a position could also be created to oversee the end of life for the terminally ill. Most of us know how easy it is to lose one's footing stepping in a hospital. Sometimes, it's because of unforeseen medical events. Other times, it may be a disagreement on how to proceed in a complicated case. A death doula's job would include ensuring, to the extent possible, that a patient's stated desires are obeyed. And if we are squeamish about doctors "violating" their ethics and prescribing lethal medication for the terminally ill who request it, we could shift this responsibility to licensed doulas, after physicians certify they can no longer help the patient."
