From the basic standards of hospital and residential care to questions about assisted suicide, debates around end of life issues are rarely out of the news.

Chapter One outlines the theological and ethical framework for the Church’s contribution to end of life debates
Chapter Two explores the questions to be asked about physician assisted suicide
Chapter Three considers the ethical and pastoral issues involved in organ donation
Chapter Four offers a hospital chaplain’s perspective on healthcare issues towards the end of life.
