Dans le débat sur la fin de vie qui anime la société française, le citoyen est sommé d'avoir un avis bien tranché et de dire si, oui ou non, il est favorable à l'euthanasie. Mais sommes-nous bien « armés » pour penser la fin de vie ? Connaissons-nous les implications éthiques, les droits du patient et des familles, les dispositions légales autour des obligations des médecins et des soins palliatifs ? En clarifiant, de façon méthodique et pédagogique, les notions fondamentales de finitude, souffrance, dignité et liberté, Jacques Ricot permet à chacun de mieux comprendre tous les enjeux philosophiques, sociétaux et juridiques de la fin de vie. Dans cette 2e édition entièrement revue, l'auteur poursuit sa réflexion éthique en proposant plusieurs enseignements autour de la vie et de la mort de Vincent Lambert et en décrivant l'évolution récente du débat sur la légalisation de l'euthanasie. « Le bon livre de Jacques Ricot s'inscrit dans la tradition humaniste, une tradition puissante et éloquente. Peut-être, en vérité, a-t-on besoin de sa force d'évidence lorsqu'on a à affronter cette question, qui n'est pas que théorique, de la fin de la vie. » (Michel Malherbe, Actu Philosophia) « Un livre à recommander aux professionnels de santé et à tous ceux qui désirent aborder de manière réfléchie les questions complexes et les décisions à prendre dans le domaine du soin des malades en fin de vie. » (Patrick Verspieren, Études) • Que signifie « mourir dans la dignité » ? La dignité est-elle affaire de convenance personnelle ? Doit-il y avoir une « exception d'euthanasie »?

"Suicide prevention initiatives are part of much broader systems connected to activities such as the diagnosis of mental illness, the recognition of clinical risk, improving access to care, and coordinating with a broad range of outside agencies and entities around both prevention and public health efforts. Yet suicide is also an intensely personal issue that continues to be surrounded by stigma. On September 11-12, 2018, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a workshop in Washington, DC, to discuss preventing suicide among people with serious mental illness. The workshop was designed to illustrate and discuss what is known, what is currently being done, and what needs to be done to identify and reduce suicide risk. Improving Care to Prevent Suicide Among People with Serious Mental Illness summarizes presentations and discussions of the workshop"--Publisher's description

Exploring the failure of hospice in America to care for patients and families at the end of life.Hospice is the dominant form of end-of-life care in the United States. But while the US hospice system provides many forms of treatment that are beneficial to dying people and their families, it does not encompass what is commonly referred to as long-term care, which includes help with the activities of daily living: feeding, bathing, general safety, and routine hygienic maintenance. Frequently, such care is carried out by an informal network of unpaid caregivers, such as the person's family or loved ones, who are often ill-prepared to offer this type of support.In The Crisis of US Hospice Care, Harold Braswell argues that the stress of providing long-term care typically overwhelms family members and that overdependence on familial caregiving constitutes a crisis of US hospice care that limits the freedom of dying people. Arguing for the need to focus on the time just before death, Braswell examines how the relationship of hospice to familial caregiving evolved. He traces the history of hospice over the past fifty years and describes the choice that people dying with inadequate familial support face between a neglectful home environment and an impersonal nursing home.A nuanced look at the personal and political dimensions that shape long-term, end-of-life care, this historical and ethnographic study demonstrates that the crisis in US hospice care can be alleviated only by establishing the centrality of hospice to American freedom. Providing a model for the transformative work that is required going forward, The Crisis of US Hospice Careillustrates the potential of hospice for facilitating a new way of living our last days and for having the best death possible.
