This week on Respect Life Radio we are joined by Emmaus Catholic Hospice, a Denver-based organization founded in 2023. Emmaus Catholic Hospice is guided by the Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services issued by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). These directives emphasize that “patients should be kept as free of pain as possible so that they may die comfortably and with dignity, and in the place where they wish to die.” They also affirm that “suicide and euthanasia are never morally acceptable options.”
In alignment with these values, Emmaus Catholic Hospice and its staff do not participate in physician-assisted suicide, including practices referred to as “medical aid in dying” (MAID).
Today, their team shares their mission of providing compassionate, faith-based care that honors the dignity of each individual through the sacred journey of end-of-life care.
