Before · During · After
A small pause.
A more complete view.
Use Nurse Prime around a particular moment. Your focus is your own processing in relation to what the situation needs.
01 / Prepare
Notice your state.
What am I bringing into this moment? Check your expectations, attention, energy, and available support.
02 / Connect
Consider what’s missing.
What haven’t I considered? Bring the person, the present evidence, and the wider context into view.
03 / Learn
Choose your next move.
What one adjustment would help? Reflect on what happened and carry one useful lesson forward.
