My first day of blogging as related to my work at Hospice of San Angelo

This will be my first exercise in blogging as related to my job.   One of my visions for Hospice of San Angelo is for it to have it's very own blog that is contributed by many and offers up a wealth of information for the community that we serve and our staff who serve it.  As often happens, I am awake thinking about work.  This may not sound like a healthy practice but it's the way I process things sometimes.  Today is one of those days.

Blogging for our hospice is one of the many facets of my personal vision for this organization.  I can't say that it was my idea, and certainly we are not the first hospice out there blogging.  I do think it's an excellent way to give more in depth information to the people who need it.  I also think it's a great way to give kudos to our staff who are out there everyday making sure that our patient's and their family's needs are met to the best of our ability.

I hope that our staff will share their ideas for this blog and especially for the forthcoming "official blog" of Hospice of San Angelo.  Currently we are in the process of working with some volunteers who enjoy blogging and are willing to help us with this.  I look forward to watching this process develop and will probably blog about the process as it goes on.

For today, I want to thank all of our staff, volunteers and board members (who are also volunteers) and express my most sincere gratitude for the hard work and dedication that happens here everyday.  I never thought I would be one who loves my job, but I do.  It's not easy, I never have enough time in any day to accomplish all that I would like to, but this may help.  I tend to express myself much better with written word than in person and look forward to the opportunity to do just that!

If you are reading this, Thank You!!  I hope you look forward to the words to come as much as I do.
