Welcome to the treehouse @Karledwards123 - it’s wonderful to have you hear and thank you for sharing your experience.

I personally can only imagine the toll that that kind of day-to-day responsibility can take (and if only more people cared the same way it sounds like you do)!

What sort of things have you tried in order to help “switch off” after your shifts and is there anything that you found worked better than others?
