After two months of waiting, this finally showed up in the mail.

I know I haven’t been very active here lately. Getting back to work has kept me busy. The ER isn’t too overwhelming at this time of year, but we’ve been working on ways to improve the patient experience.

Lately, I’ve been focusing more on supporting underinsured and uninsured patients. The goal is to help close the gaps in care they often face once they leave the hospital. It’s been challenging. A lot of them are just trying to stay afloat, and sometimes all it takes is one person who believes in them, especially when they’re struggling to believe in themselves.

At the same time, there’s ongoing talk about proposed Medicaid budget cuts, and now all this heartbreaking news about wars and missile strikes. It’s a lot to take in. What else is 2025 going to throw at us?

Hope you’re all staying safe and looking out for one another.
