Episode Description

I love caring for patients with chronic conditions now, but it wasn’t always the case. Like so many new grads, I struggled with caring for patients managing chronic conditions -- where to start, how to proceed, feeling like we weren’t making any progress towards “control” of those conditions (diabetes, chronic kidney disease, hypertension, etc).

When I was a new nurse practitioner, I was incredibly focused on the diagnostic algorithms and medication management. Which, of course, is crucial to know, but isn’t truly what moves the needle in chronic conditions.

In this episode, I cover:

What moves the needle in chronic conditions
Normalize what and why this is so hard
What my dog has taught me about caring for patients (and can help you too)
A practical framework for navigating the management of these conditions
