  • Great content

    I found this show about month ago and have listened to a BUNCH of episodes. I am not even a hospice nurse but much of what you talk about applies to home nursing visits in general. James you are so compassionate to your patients AND your coworkers. This show is educational and encouraging! A real find! Thank you!

  • Speed of trust

    I have enjoyed listening to you and Nurse this morning. I love that. You said we have to chart at the bedside is the most important thing. I was charting at the bedside and then told not to. So going in the opposite direction, but I’m going to start charting at the bedside again. It’s more accurate. It puts me stressed at the end of the day and I can still have contact and listen to them even with my computer in hand. Thank you for the insight and good advice.

    I’ve been a clinic nurse since 2008 and recently started working in hospice home health. Today I completed my second day of visits on my own and not sure I could have made it without your podcast. I had been struggling to find material that could help me understand what the heck I am suppose to being doing. Hospice nursing is uniquely complex and much more than I thought it would be. I absolutely love it!! And I was scared!!! I was worried about not succeeding, I didn’t want to be a failure but... more
