    Awesome job showing that non-pharmacologic methods are still the best medicine! Looking forward to teaching our 4 new Fellows about the as preaches. I say !

    Today’s challenge was to engage a couple of irritable pts. Sitting down & politely chatting at the bedside usually does the trick. Old school medicine a la works pretty much every time!

    Last night, I gave my elderly patient a bath and back rub with lotion. Got him in fresh sheets and chatted with him about his years as a teacher. He said “thanks for making me feel human again” and my heart melted.

    Why is it that every Children’s Hospital is filled with child life specialists, but the concept of an elder life specialist barely exist. Don’t all people, young and old, have the right to have their basic needs -comfort, compassion,anxiety relief- addressed in the hospital?
