1. Sit down at bedside with pt 2. Learn an interesting non-medical thing about the pt & ask them about it (hobbies & sports are HY) 3. If dx not made, ask about their perception of dz - what do they think it is/what are they afraid it is? 4. Measure twice, cut once (i.e. before starting procedure, set yourself up for success w/ good positioning using landmarks) 5. Don't tolerate mistreatment 6. Ask pt about transport home prior to d/c 7. You're never above any aspect of pt care no matter how small (i.e. just get them the blanket!) 8. To pts & fam you are Dr X 9. To healthcare professionals you are FirstName (LastName) 10. Ask pt about communicating with fam even if they haven't formally reached out (often their messages fall through the cracks)
