  • Once upon a time, I was working briefly in a catholic hospital, a childrens and ob/gyn no less.
    As I started there, I was looking for the standards of care. All of my other workplaces had folders and folders of these standards outlining common tasks and problems in the field and how to treat them. A common tool of quality management.

    The only one I found was on how employees should act and behave in case of accusations of mistreatment and sexual abuse. Against anyone affiliated with the hospital or church. Who is to speak to involved parties and press and what employees are (not) allowed to say and do. Nothing about how to treat or help the patient. Only about keeping harm away from the institution.

    Should have left right then and there. But I only made it 6 months anyways.

    This exactly. If you really want to stay anonymous then use a middleman and do it anonymous to the recipient as well.

    Everyone involved with the institution, students, parents who pay tuition, teachers, authorities who financially support the institution (…) have a right to know in whose pocket they are.







  • I know from working in healthcare in Germany, that you can get euthanasia as a non Swiss national if you go through the appropriate channels. You don’t even have to live in Switzerland.

    But it is for all a legally controlled, very lengthy and detailed process with several independent doctors and psychiatrists having to sign off on it.

    My uneducated guess would be, that there are some rules and regulations they haven’t followed exactly. Maybe they thought since the patient has the controll over the button themselves, they wouldn’t be bound by all of them.
