Create a questionnaire that lists 15 interview questions you would ask your patients or their family members regarding Death with Dignity and end of life/palliative care for the patient. Ask your questions to a friend or family member, and document their answers in a Word document in question/answer format.

Be sure to include this question: Do you agree with the Death with Dignity Act, why or why not?
