Medical Aid in Dying: Compassionate Care or Ethical Crossroads? | Ep. 24

www.mynursedad.comIn this episode, RN Glenn (aka Nurse Dad, IG: @nurse.dad) sits down with RN Scott (IG: @homehealthhustle.nurse) for an honest, unfiltered conversation about the winding road through nursing—and the ethical crossroads facing healthcare today.Scott shares his unexpected journey beginning in the U.S. Navy, moving through the intensity of ER and ICU nursing, and ultimately landing in home health, where medicine looks very different once the hospital walls disappear. Together, Glenn and Scott break down what frontline care really looks like across settings—and how those experiences shape the way nurses see patients, autonomy, and responsibility.The conversation then turns to one of the most controversial and rapidly expanding topics in U.S. healthcare: Medical Aid in Dying (MAiD). We examine how the program works in the United States, how it differs from Canada’s MAiD model, and the ripple effects this shift may have—not just on patients and families, but on nurses, physicians, and the public’s trust in medicine itself.This isn’t a debate for clicks. It’s a bedside-level discussion about ethics, compassion, burnout, boundaries, and what modern medicine is becoming—whether we’re ready or not.🎧 Watch & Listen on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts👉 Visit www.mynursedad.com for links, resources, and to grab your FREE 35-page Nurse Dad Guide.🎧 Tune in now on Spotify & YouTube by visiting visit www.mynursedad.comThis video is for entertainment purposes only!Follow RN Scott's INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/homehealthhustle.nurse/\RN Scott's TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@homehealthhustlenurseRN Scott's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@homehealthhustlenurseRN Scott's ETSY: https://www.etsy.com/shop/homehealthhustlern/?etsrc=sdtNurse Dad's on SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/4BAgc4kUmJfMTeICilAjXm?si=-sBb6E5UTwy0Y3NThrtezQNurse Dad's Instagram: nurse.dad https://www.instagram.com/nurse.dad/Nurse Dad has his RN BSN and is a veteran of the U.S. Navy Hospital Corps.TitTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nurse.dad0Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-nurse-dad-podcast/id1828365865Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61566874179530X: https://x.com/Nursedad0Nurse Dad's FREE GUIDE: www.mynursedad.com (fill out the pop-up)Nurse Dad's CHILDREN'S BOOK: https://amzn.to/48IIIPO (Amazon)IF YOU'RE GOING THROUGH A TOUGH TIME, BELOW PLEASE FIND SOME INFO THAT CAN HELP:988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline:Phone/Text: 988 Online Chat: 988lifeline.org Provides free, confidential support, counseling, and referrals for mental health and substance use concerns.
