December 4, 2017: We are entering into a season of giving, reflection and gratitude. I encourage you to be sensitive to your patients, families and co-workers who are grieving the loss of a loved-one, friend, house or possessions during this time. Be willing to listen more than speak; acknowledge the loss and express your caring; and ask them what helps and what this experience is like for them. Expressing our I CARE Value of Compassion, along with empathy can be one of the best gifts you can give this Christmas.
