What are some things you do to give yourself time to think and breathe? I take a break during the workday to get out of the office and walk for about 1/2 hour. On my own time, I also volunteer with kids at my church and for a beagle rescue! These things take my mind off of work and provide a sense of purpose and fulfillment outside of my professional life.
What do you think is the most important attribute of today’sprofessional case manager? Compassion, not only for patients but also for coworkers. Compassion for patients leads to our best efforts to help them. Compassion for coworkers leads to better morale and teamwork and lower attrition.
