Episode Six: Plan your work. Work your plan.

For todays episode we discuss several ideas that will help us be more likely to happen to our days and weeks instead of our days and weeks happening to us.

We discuss the importance of having a new schedule every week. I am offering a free copy of the spreadsheet I have created to manage my caseload. You can visit the download page HERE. Please email me at james@confessionsofahospicenurse.net if you have any problems getting the file to work.

Here is a quick overview of the concepts I discussed during this episode.

1. New schedule every week.
2. Start Early
3. Plan the day
4. Everything at the bedside
5. Embrace the tension
6. Start with the sickest patient - hardest work first
7. Don’t waste waiting
