New year resolution: Embracing change and welcoming new ways of caring for our patients

摘要

Most new year's resolutions are constant dichotomies, between more and less. Eat less, exercise more, read more, work less, learn more, complain less... the list goes on. Each year, we try to be reflective and prepare for the personal and professional challenges ahead. The best advice has always been to reflect on the things that you love and places where you find value and happiness. Inevitably, my work always comes in a close second to family and home. The hospital has been a wonderful place to practice, learn, and grow. Today, it is as exciting for me as it was on my first day as a new graduate in the intensive care unit (ICU), different and changed, but still full of wonder and challenge. Each year, I make resolutions to help guide me through new challenges.
