Home euthanasia kits for Belgian doctors
Cape Times | April 18, 2005
Brussels: Family doctors who wish to carry out euthanasia at a patient's home can now procure a "kit". They will have to order the kit themselves and pick it up in person 24 hours later.
Euthanasia is carried out in the home in 40% of cases in Belgium. The kit costs €60.
Belgium decriminalised euthanasia in cases of the hopelessly sick or injured or where the patient is in constant physical or psychological suffering. - Sapa-AFP
