Patient Hug Day!

Today was a good day, I got a lot done and I did well :) I saw a returning pt this morning and she is just the cutest thing ever, when I walked her out she gave me a hug :) It made me feel like i had accomplished making the patient feel happy and loved! I really do wish i had more time to get to know my patients because most of them are amazing people! Then this afternoon i saw my cousin and did the spit PE on him. He has nice spit, and was at a very low risk for caries so that was good for him to know. Anyway, I learned today that i want to try and get to know my patients a little bit more even if its just an extra five min at the beginning of the appt.
