Avoid sleepiness while driving.

Returning to the office after a long work day, Kristin, a hospice nurse, learns that the nighttime on-call nurse is ill. Kristin agrees to take call and hopes it will be a slow night. Now it is 2 am and Kristin has to travel to a client's home. Yawning repeatedly and driving over the rumble strip on the highway, she turns on the radio and opens the car window to the chill air, trying to shock herself into alertness.

Bag and supply transport tips.

Wearily glancing at the front entrance of the apartment building, about 100 yards away and up two flights of stairs, Chris thinks, "One more trip and I should have everything." Two boxes of supplies and a bag of assessment equipment are needed for this visit and Chris must transport everything alone. For the next visit, Chris will again be required to transport various boxes and bags. Because of increasing shoulder and neck pain, Chris resolves to stop using shoulder straps and start using bags with wheels and portable hand carts for the boxes and other bulky supplies these visits require.
