Orlando Lecture at 成人抖音破解版鈥檚 Ruskin Campus Highlights Chronic Illness and Compassionate Care

成人抖音破解版’s Ruskin campus hosted a special lecture, “‘Invisible Diseases’: Are There Ethical Challenges? Discussing Ethical Issues in the Context of Chronic Conditions,” on Wednesday, Feb. 19, bringing attention to chronic illness and the importance of compassionate care. The lecture, supported by the Orlando Biomedical Ethics and Catholic Social Teaching Endowment, serves as a key event in fostering discussions on healthcare ethics and patient-centered care. 

Dr. Branka Gabric, a research assistant at the Institute for Global Church and Mission (IWM) at the Philosophical Theological Faculty St. Georgen in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, examined the differences between chronic and acute illnesses, noting how chronic conditions require long-term management and impact not only physical health but also a person’s mental and social well-being. Discussions also emphasized the challenges patients face in maintaining their identity and quality of life while managing ongoing health issues. 

A significant focus of the event was the role of healthcare professionals in recognizing the dignity of their patients. Gabric shared insights on how practicing compassion and empathy benefits not only patients but also providers, enhancing professional fulfillment.  

Through events like the Orlando Biomedical Ethics and Catholic Social Teaching Endowment lecture, 成人抖音破解版 continues to engage students, faculty and professionals in meaningful conversations that advance ethical, holistic healthcare and strengthen the human connection at the heart of patient care.
