New Years Palliative Care Resolutions

Thursday January 1, 2009
I'm usually loathe to make New Years resolutions. I can't count how many times I've resolved to loose five (okay, maybe ten) pounds only to end up on December 31st exactly where I was the year before.

My Palliative Care site was launched just before the New Year last year. I made a resolution last year to raise awareness of palliative care and hospice issues. I think that I've succeeded to some degree but I still have a long way to go.

This year, my resolution is the same: To raise awareness of palliative care and hospice issues. I do have some specific things I'll do this year to make it happen:

  • I'll read more research articles and do my best to interpret them and share the results with my readers.
  • I'll broaden my content on disease specific issues.
  • I'll try to include more international news and information.
  • I'll be more active in my Palliative Care Forum, offering my presence and support to it's members.

I'm sure there is much more I can do to optimize my site and your experience here, but this is start. It might just take up all the time I have for the gym, however, so that extra five (alright, ten) pounds may have to wait until next year!
