Proposals to legalize assisted suicide challenge hospice's identity and integrity. In the wake of Measure 16, Oregon hospice programs must develop practical policies to balance traditional commitments not to hasten death and not to abandon patients with dying patients' legal right to request lethal prescriptions.
将协助自杀合法化的提议对临终关怀的特性和完整性构成了挑战。在《第16号措施》出台后,俄勒冈州的临终关怀项目必须制定切实可行的政策,以平衡传统上不加速死亡、不抛弃患者的承诺与临终患者请求开具致命处方的合法权利。
