3 - Health

I meet with patients in my office with the door closed for privacy. There's another office close by with a two-way mirror where we will also conduct interviews. It's often helpful for another nurse therapist to observe or supervise without physically being in the same room. We always ask the patient's permission before doing that.

I do a lot of work over the phone. When a patient calls me in crisis, I talk to them over the phone and sometimes that's enough to calm their situation.
