In Pursuit of Slowness

I love my work as a post-acute and long-term care geriatrician, and as a hospice and palliative medicine specialist. I freely admit that. Yes, there are plenty of headaches, including administrative and regulatory burdens, and there ’s the unfortunate reality that lots of the patients I become fond of die. But I believe that most of Caring’s readers feel the same way. In fact, I believe most people who choose to devote their life’s work to providing care to the vulnerable, dependent, and ill patients we look after love th eir work and consider it a calling — including arguably the most important members of our care teams, the nursing assistants.
