Rational Thought

There have been several reports and articles published that outline the struggles facing palliative care (PC)  
The usual lack of funding for beds and staff. 
Some in the PC field have expressed the concern that legalized AS will somehow render PC redundant when it comes to allocating funding , ie;  that the bean counters will conclude :  "We have AS now so we don't need PC."

I agree with you, there is need and room for both AS and PC as end-of-life options.
