: We seem to have a tie between answers 2 & 3.  After reading the comments I tend to lean that way too.  Any reflections on how we sometimes take for granted patients will be more "comfortable" on a first name basis?  Is this a change in society in general?
Marilyn, I think so.  We have gotten so use to first name basis that it has become the norm.  For many people, it isn't the norm.
