It is also worth noting that while dementia is not consistently associated with completed suicide, rates of assisted dying in this population have been noted to increase when it is legally permitted (Diehl-Schmid et al., 2017); this phenomenon is reminiscent of the increased suicide rates seen in countries or cultures where access to means of suicide is easier (Sarchiapone et al., 2011). doi:10.2174/1567205013666160720112608, Shannon, T.

While the former is considered a form of PAS in several religious traditions and therefore unacceptable (Shannon and Walter, 2004; Rosner and Abramson, 2009; Alsolamy, 2014), the latter would be considered permissible, and could addressed through advance care planning (van Wijmen et al., 2015).
