Inspections

Wow, we had an inspection at Balmoral yesterday. After quickly getting thru that inspection with zero deficiencies we move to another place in our quest to improve what we can do in our community. Anyone who knows Medicaid knows that you don't make much money that way but, our owners see fit to give back to our community. I feel fortunate to work for such a company.

After many days of preparation it's all over. A relief? Sort of , now the work of continuing in excellence! Isn't that how life should be? Continually striving for more? Some retire in their 50's, me? I pursue a different area in nursing! Bless me indeed and enlarge my territory, that Your hand might be with me, that You would keep me from evil that I might not cause pain. CAN I? Some of me screams NO, don't make me!!! The rest of me can't help but move on, try for more, to grow.

Because my coworkers are younger, much younger in many cases I feel younger! So yes, stretch! I don't always love it but I feel better most of the time... it's okay once in a while to go UGH! Growing old is not for sissies! If I'm going to keep up with the younger ones I've got to work hard. I'm working out again at least a couple of days a week, I'm trying to make myself do a 5K in May, I know I can quickly walk it but I don't want to just walk! I want to be healthy and happy as possible all the days of my life and that is a choice I make daily by watching what I eat, what I do and what I think! The battle is between my ears and I intend to win! I'd like to take others with me, to promote health not just symptom cover up!
