As we find ourselves in the last week of December, chances are that you’ve been enjoying some time with family and loved ones. 6 am alarm clocks and rushing into the office for your 8am appointments have been replaced by 8am wake-ups and spending the morning reading the newspaper in front of the fire place. What a stark difference having time off for the holidays can make.

Aside from the extra time that you have to yourself, think about how much more time you have been able to spend with family members and loved ones. Instead of getting stuck at the office doing paperwork and HEDIS chart abstractions, you were able to go to your grandson’s Holiday Choral Concert, your niece’s basketball game and out to dinner with old friends. Time away from work means that you get more time with your family and the ones you love.

Waking up after Christmas weekend and having to head back to your practice, do you find that the thoughts, “Why haven’t I retired yet?’” are circulating through your head? If you answer yes to that, you’re not alone! Many people dread heading back to work after time off around the holidays. The only difference is, you’re close to retirement age and can actually make that a reality!

However, the minute you think about retirement, a massive checklist of things to do presumably pops up in your head. You have to worry about your employees – the nurse practitioners, cleaning staff and administrative clerks. Then there’s the building your run your practice from that you have either to sell or end your lease. On top of that, you have to deal with cancelling insurance policies, informing boards that you will no longer be practicing, and then the daunting task of tell your loyal patients.

You’ve likely worked with certain patients for the majority of their lives, and cutting those ties can be emotional. You want those patients to receive the best care even after you are gone, which can be hard to guarantee.
