In Episode Seventeen Brian returns to discuss strategies for success in long term care facilities.

We answer several great questions from The Hospice Nurse Support Group on Facebook.

Throughout this episode we discuss many of the challenges hospice faces when providing care in LTC facilities.

Towards the end of the episode we address a very difficult situation a nurse named ”Peggy” has recently had to deal with.

At the end of the episode we conclude with some practical advice to help build deeper relationships with staff and leadership.

In my final thoughts, we discuss the importance of considering the bigger picture when working with all facilities. We discuss the fact that working with any facility is about long term goals, and how it takes time to build a mutually beneficial relationship that will ultimately help hospice patients and their difficult journey towards end of life.
