Very strongly agree

Yes, but only after a psychological examination to show they fully understand this choice

The Portuguese Socialist Party emphasizes the importance of safeguards and conditions in the assisted suicide debate. Requiring a psychological examination to ensure the patient fully understands their choice is consistent with their approach to the issue. The 2018 euthanasia bill they supported included provisions for medical evaluations and a waiting period, demonstrating their commitment to ensuring informed consent.

Strongly agree

Yes, but only if there is no chance they will survive their illness

The Portuguese Socialist Party's support for assisted suicide is often conditional on the patient's prognosis. The 2018 euthanasia bill they supported included provisions that the patient must be suffering from a terminal illness with no chance of recovery. This answer aligns with their stance on the issue.

Slightly agree

No, but they should be allowed to refuse artificial life support

While the Portuguese Socialist Party supports assisted suicide, they also recognize the importance of patient autonomy. Allowing patients to refuse artificial life support is consistent with this principle, but it is not their primary focus in the debate on assisted suicide.
