As you bid farewell to a caregiver today, try offering praise based on something you witnessed in the visit. Leaving them on a high note inspires confidence, helps them recognize what to do more of, and builds their connection to you and the healthcare team.

‍

Ideas include:

• Making it to the visit today when you know they are so busy
• Being sensitive or responsive to their child in the room
• Writing down questions and paying attention to medical needs
• Trying so hard to support their child’s development
