Guidelines for Caring for Incapacitated Teachers and Students at Former Jesuit Colleges in Europe.

The aim of this article is to explore the regulations governing the treatment of incapacitated people in former Jesuit colleges in Europe, focusing on the academic staff and students residing in these institutions. This treatment was strongly influenced by the spirituality of Ignatius of Loyola, who perceived disease in dual terms: as an evil to be combated through all available means and as a test of faith from God. Ignatius instructed college superiors to prioritize the care of the sick and appointed specific officers within the community, such as prefects of health, nurses, and pharmacists, while also formulating detailed rules for the care and treatment of the sick.

Emergency Care for High-Altitude Trekking and Climbing.

High altitude regions are characterized by harsh conditions (environmental, rough terrain, natural hazards, and limited hygiene and health care), which all may contribute to the risk of accidents/emergencies when trekking or climbing.

Aim: To evaluate the suitability of a drama-based workshop as a method for ethical deliberation.

"Not me!" a qualitative, vignette-based study of nurses' and physicians' reactions to spiritual distress on neuro-oncological units.

Purpose: People with primary malignant brain tumors experience serious health-related suffering caused by limited prognosis and high symptom burden.

The aim of this study was to analyze the attitudes and behavior of nurses and physicians when confronted with spiritual distress in these patients.

"So we brought these players together": a qualitative study of educators' experiences to analyze the challenges of creating an e-learning program for neuropalliative care.

Background: In recent years, the subspecialty of neuropalliative care has emerged with the goal of improving the quality of life of patients suffering from neurological disease, though gaps remain in neuropalliative care education and training. E-learning has been described as a way to deliver interactive and facilitated lower-cost learning to address global gaps in medical care. We describe here the development of a novel, international, hybrid, and asynchronous curriculum with both self-paced modules and class-based lectures on neuropalliative care topics designed for the neurologist interested in palliative care, the palliative care physician interested in caring for neurological patients, and any other physician or advanced care providers interested in neuropalliative care.
