Nursing ethics and the Holocaust: Pilot of an innovation in teaching
More nurses than doctors killed in the Holocaust but are little studied. In Nazi ‘euthanasia’ institutional patients, with others, were killed by nurses.

In Australia, 21 participants (health professionals, community members) completed pre-and-post questionnaires testing levels of knowledge.…

These factors have influenced the country's memorialization of, and responses to, the Ho…
