19.17

又四分律云。看病得五功德。一知病人可食不可食。可食便與。二不惡賤病人大小便利唾吐。三有慈愍心。不為衣食故看。四能經理湯藥。乃至差病若命終。五能為病人說法歡喜。己身善法增長。

Furthermore, the Dharmaguptaka-vinaya states: 'Looking after the sick brings five merits: first, knowing what the sick person may eat and may not eat, and giving it when permissible; second, not despising the sick person's urine, feces, spittle, and vomit; third, having a compassionate mind, not looking after them for the sake of clothing and food; fourth, being able to attend to broths and medicines until recovery or the end of life; fifth, being able to explain the Dharma to the sick person to gladden them, so that good dharmas increase in oneself.'
