New goal: work-life integration
It’s been 6 years since we created My Nursing Care Plan! At that point, our focus was on meeting skilled requirements, lifelong learning in nursing and skilled life. The first two goals still make sense, but I’ve been combating the third one for a very long time. Do we ever really balance the whole lot in our lives? I am unable to remember a time when the whole lot in my life was equally balanced, when my energy and time were equally divided between work, family, and all the opposite responsibilities that competed for my attention.

So I made a decision it was time to revise this a part of My Nursing Care Plan. Take a better take a look at what you should do to attain harmony – physically, mentally and spiritually.
