Popis: This article examines various sides of the recent discussion about establishing a medical category within the “moral injury” discourse. Essential differences between the nature and development of moral injury among physicians and combat veterans are acknowledged. Essential similarities are also explored. Case notes from a 3-year encounter between a clinical chaplain and a disoriented physician are offered as an illustration of how moral injury interventions with veteran populations can inform care for physicians experiencing burnout.
