OBJECTIVE: Voluntary assisted dying (VAD) became legal in Queensland in January 2023. This research examines the perceptions of doctors who have no in-principle objection to VAD, about the first year of VAD operation.
METHODS: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 27 doctors 1 year after VAD had been in operation.
RESULTS: Three themes were developed: VAD is largely accepted as an end-of-life option and there is a collaborative approach with palliative care; VAD is being delivered as a public medical service, providing high-quality, timely access; and despite provision as a public medical service, there are remaining system access issues.
CONCLUSIONS: The first year of VAD in Queensland has been generally positive, however, ongoing system access issues need to be addressed to ensure long-term sustainability of the service.
