Catholic Healthcare West (CHW), San Francisco, which either sponsors or participates in three separate leadership development programs, sees the formation of new ministry leadership as a matter of the first importance. For the past four years, CHW has participated in CHA's Ecclesiology and Spiritual Renewal Program for System Leaders, the annual pilgrimage to the Vatican City in which ministry executives, board members, and sponsors get an opportunity to learn about the church's institutional structure and immerse themselves in its spiritual atmosphere. In 2002 the system established its CHW Learning Institute, which offers all employees training in leadership, clinical, governance, and employee development. Among other things, the institute has developed CHW's Competency Standards for Leadership. In 2004 CHW, with four other Catholic health care systems in the western United States, created the Ministry Leadership Center, Sacramento. This spring, 49 CHW managers were among the students enrolled in the center's inaugural classes. Among other subjects, they studied the distinctive competencies-intellectual, affective, and spiritual-required to lead a health care ministry in its operations and governance.

The five-hour day visit by the Pope to Coventry Airport on 30 May 1982 required a major exercise in medical planning. First- and second-line first-aid facilities were provided by the British Red Cross Society and the St John Ambulance Association. Hospital facilities were provided in a 30-bed Territorial Army field hospital. The visit attracted a crowd of 350,000; 1424 casualties were seen at first-aid stations and 152 at the field hospital. Twenty patients required transfer to NHS hospitals for further treatment, and one woman died. Most ailments experienced were headaches and effects of heat, blisters, and abdominal symptoms. The field hospital treated a wide range of conditions including cardiac conditions, fractures, premature labour, and acute abdominal emergencies.

The regiment of the Zouaves pontificaux was formed by young Catholic volunteers, chiefly French, Dutch and Belgian, who enrolled for the defence of the Pontifical State from 1861 to 1870 against the scheme of the United Italy planned by King Victor-Emmanuel II and Garibaldi. For ten years fights were scarce. They only took place in 1867 principally in Mentana and in September 1870 when the papal state was invaded and Rome taken. At first the military medical service in the regiment as in the whole army was rather inadequate except for the central hospital. The ambulances system was based largely upon benevolent people. But the organization improved in 1870. On the whole amongst more than 9,000 enlisted volunteers, 476 died (5%). The causes of death were more often diseases (78%) than injuries. As in all the armies of that time, cholera, smallpox, typhoid fever made a lot of victims. Malaria which still reigned in the Latium was responsible of a large morbidity.
