Must Be Doing Something Right

So for all you renal RD's out there who work in a dialysis unit, I am sure you draw mid-month labs for phosphorus.  At my unit, we look at Phos over 7 and really try our best to give these clients a little extra attention.  My list has been running between 5-8 patients.  Well this month, I got it down to 3! Yes 3! To me it is unbelievable.  I just hope it had something to do with the board I set up.  As mention in the previous post, my clients seemed to really like the interaction and were always asking me if their acorn was in the tree.

I took a sneak peak at our numbers for October and how we did meeting our targets.  Alb went up but we are still not meeting goal.  I am in the process of setting up my hockey themed board.  Hopefully, this will motivate my clients just as the Acorn Board did.  Once I am done, I will post pictures on here and Twitter(@AspiringRenalRD).

I am really enjoying my time out in dialysis.  I knew I was going to love it.  I am very grateful I was given this opportunity. Love my new renal family!
