In episode nineteen I go into detail my strategies for managing visit frequencies. 

To start out the episode I discuss the importance of following agency protocol regardless of any advice I provide. I also challenge leadership to reconsider any expectations that do not make sure patients get visits from their primary nurse for all crisis. 

I discuss how increased visits help build the two most important tools we have in our nursing bags.

I compare the hospice experience with a good book and explain what the first 7 days should look like and what the last 7 days should look like.

I discuss situations when we should put patients on daily visits even though they are not in steep decline or actively dying.

At the end of the episode I provide an update on my new website Hospice Nurse Training, and I discuss the upcoming training schedule.
