Hospice and Physician-Assisted Death: Collaboration, Compliance, and Complicity
Hastings Center Report 40 (5):26-35 (2010)
Abstract
Although the overwhelming majority of terminally ill patients in Oregon who seek a physician's aid in dying are enrolled in hospice programs, hospices do not take a major role in this practice. An examination of fifty‐five Oregon hospices reveals that both legal and moral questions prevent hospices from collaborating fully with physician‐assisted death.Author's Profile
