Self -determined to end your own life is the last wish for some – including a woman who, with the existence of a legally valid notarial death, has taken a deadly medication. But this was followed by a police and rescue operation in which attempts were made to resuscitate the woman. The case is now entering into an opportunity by the public prosecutor to insist on training for emergency services for dealing with assisted suicide.
Euthanasia is an emotional and much discussed subject. And the aforementioned case is also no exception: it is described in the current annual report of the public prosecutor. Accordingly, a woman who had built a valid death removal took the fatal medication that the pharmacy provided in these cases.
Girlfriend of the end of the end alarmed forces
Police officers appeared about fifteen minutes later, and a little later a paramedic and emergency doctor in the apartment – alerted by a friend of the deceased, whom the woman had said goodbye to the medication.
The emergency services pushed a man who was supported by the woman, despite his reference to the death removal and the report of the medication and started with resuscitation measures, including a defibrillator. They rejected the objections of the man – they are their duty to save lives and they are not aware of the official information about the death facility. The resuscitation measures continued until the EKG no longer showed signals.
The lawyer of people Bernhard Achitz personally blamed the helpers. “What you need are clear regulations and information about the subject of death provisions and supported suicide. Legal contradictions must be removed so that emergency services can respect the dying orders.” According to the Vienna Rescue and Administrative Transport Act, for example, the emergency services are obliged to offer the first medical emergency aid immediately because of the immediate danger to life.
“Feitually unjustified” procedure?
However, the public prosecutor has “important concerns whether the police and emergency rescue staff procedure was not a factually unjustified interference in the sphere of both the dying and the man”. The regulations for the living will, the paramedics and emergency doctors involved in a rescue operation are, among other things, obliged not to implement the measures mentioned in the decision.
Change of the required death supply
Likewise, a death conflict can be used for the assessment of the alleged patient, even if the Death Provision Law does not explicitly provide this at the moment. However, the purpose of the law and the judiciary of the Constitutional Court showed that “the free and self-determined location and implementation of the dying person will also include the life-saving or life-resistant measures (which is binding on police and rescue workers).” In any case, the public prosecutor is of the opinion that the change in the death facility is required.
