Doctor Calls


When visiting a client, do you save some calls for the doctor for after you leave or do you always do ALL calls from the clients home. Which ones do you choose to call once you have left.

Default Re: Doctor Calls
I would save a call for after I have left the home if I suspect that I might want to say something that I might not want to say in front of the client. Sometimes we want to have a little license to speak frankly, or for that matter, answer a doctor in a frank manner, without having to be aware of who might be listening in and how they might perceive our comments.
