Abstract In 2013, the term disaster neurology was introduced to describe a new practice opportunity for neurologists interested in providing needed, nonsurgical neurologic care in regions affected by natural or human-influenced disasters. Although previously presented as an option for interested neurologists, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has made it clear that every neurologist should be prepared to take on the unique challenges of disaster neurology.

To characterize the goals and approaches of clinicians with experience discussing long‐term prognostic information with older adults. We used a semistructured interview guide containing 2 domains of perceived benefits and strategies to explore why and how clinicians choose to discuss long‐term prognosis, defined as life expectancy on the scale of years, with patients. Clinicians from home‐based primary care practices, community‐based clinics, and academic medical centers across San Francisco.
