So much for posting monthly

But since September is almost here, with the feeling of renewal, I will post again!

I have been thinking about how though making change to improve things is at times extraordinarily painful, that there are great pay offs. There have been multiple changes at work, significant ones, and I can see results that are so very positive. Such as family members saying how much they appreciate care, and thinking back to what we used to do, and now have changed things dramatically.

Like no visiting hours-with no problems. Like avoiding blanket rules and instead focusing on what specific patients need.

It is so easy to get caught up in the negative and lose sight of what we're doing, but looking at our care-I think we do a great job. And I didn't think I'd say that 5 years ago.
