I am guessing the situations where this would happen would be unique. I refer to someone not having the physical ability to self-administer the drug. These would be unique circumstances, but I am sure such a situation could be accommodated. I think this happens in New Zealand. If people there cannot physically self-administer the medication, then they are helped by a physician. Again, though, I do not think this changes the parameters of assisted dying in respect of the New Zealand model.
