What is Quiĕtus?
Quiĕtus comes from the Medieval Latin word quiētus, implying a sense of stillness and eternal rest. We help terminally ill New Yorkers navigate the legal and logistical complexities of the Medical Aid in Dying process, and connect them with the doctors, nurses, social workers, psychologists, and others who can provide the care they need.
our mission
How Quiĕtus Began
Quiĕtus was founded by two veteran hospice clinicians who saw that terminally ill New Yorkers needed knowledgeable, compassionate guidance for Medical Aid in Dying. We built a network of expert doctors, nurses, social workers, and psychologists to provide this care.
Our Promise
We handle the complexities of the law and the coordination of care so that you and your family can focus on what matters most: the legacy of your life and the option of a peaceful end to life's journey.
