Hey CCIM! With everything that has changed so rapidly in the past week, it is important to not only consider why presence is important with our patients, but also how we can take the time to be present with ourselves and our thoughts and emotions as we process the changes with our temporary transition to online learning. As you read this article from CLOSLER, think of how you can apply the principle of presence both to your future patients and also to yourself.
"When talking with your patient, dedicate at least two minutes to pure listening. During that time, try to not think about the next question you want to ask and just hear your patient’s perspective."
