Um, you know, it doesn't assume that someone's inner circle is a member of someone that they would identify as family uh or friend.
It might be a hired caregiver, it might be a social worker in the community or other person who may not sort of identify with that word friend or family.
Um and it allows, in my opinion, it kind of allows people to sort of share with us who.
are the important people with us out without us passing judgment around like who who qualifies to be important people.
I think some folks we care for in the hospital also really value that you know in the inpatient setting.
The inpatient care team can actually also serve as a support to those.
Family members or friends, whether they're visiting in person or keeping in touch by phone, and to know that we are a source of support for.
their trusted people is also very reassuring.
And so in the inpatient setting, we can kind of also offer um that reassurance that we can be here to help answer their questions or help them think through how best to proceed if they find that there's more on their plate over time.
And that offers a sense of calm.
I would say, how does it feel when you're worried about something and somebody else tells you don't worry about it?
It doesn't usually lick the wound.
You know, it you you know the truth is if someone is worried about something, that worry is going to be sitting on their mind or in their heart, whether we tell them to not worry about it.
And in fact, if we say don't worry about it, we miss an opportunity to really hold on to some important information with them and sort of sit with them in their worry.
And the truth is there might be truth in that.
You know, there might be a degree of stress or burden that their inner circle just can't imagine taking on.
Um, and and that doesn't mean that they don't love them.
Or wish that they could.
Um, but it it it might be very much based in the reality of how difficult things are right now.
And if we kind of minimize that or shoe that away.
