Working in home health and hospice is everything I love best about nursing. I have plenty of time to teach my patients and interact with them. I am getting to know them and their families. I see how what I teach them improves their health. I love every second of it. And it is a bonus that I can usually get all my visits done by 2 or 3 pm. My co workers are great, but most of my day is driving around and being with my patients. It is awesome.
I am only part time for now, but my visits are already increasing. I will be full time by the end of this fall. And, I have officially put in my notice to Dr Saifee's office. As of 9/13 I will no longer be an M.A.! It was a good 15 year run. I learned so much about myself, made so many great friends, but it is time to move on.
