Centre of Expertise on Euthanasia[1][2] (Dutch: Expertisecentrum Euthanasie, formerly known as Levenseindekliniek) is a Dutch mobile euthanasia clinic.[2] The clinic was established in 2012.[3] In 2012, 32 people received euthanasia by the clinic.[4] The clinic doesn't have a physical place to perform euthansia, because of that, all operations are done in the patients home.[3] The clinic only helps people who have Dutch residential address.[5]
