Urging Patients To Kill Themselves

More Oregon Patients Killed Via Assisted Suicide as Activists Infiltrate Hospice

Salem, OR (LifeNews.com) -- The number of assisted suicides in Oregon has increased 30 percent in the last two years and euthanasia activists themselves may have provided the reasons why. It appears members of Compassion & Choices have infiltrated the hospice system and are urging patients to kill themselves. LifeNews.com reported on the increase earlier this month, but a Compassion & Choice press release last week provided an interesting take on the report. The group said that "nearly 100% of terminally ill individuals using the law in 2008 were enrolled in hospice." Coombs said the assisted suicide law is getting more patients enrolled in hospice, but bioethics watchdog Wesley J. Smith says the pro-euthanasia group "should be ashamed, not proud." "This press release is essentially an admission that its representatives interfere with the proper provision of hospice care, since an essential service of hospice is suicide prevention," Smith explains. He says C&C's involvement in hospice is pushing patients into assisted suicide and corrupting the system. Ref. Source 9
