    Just state the facts and leave out the word demanding.
    You could say: Pt on call light frequently. In last hour pt has placed 22 calls. Lights quickly answered with needs met.

    You could mention the state of mind ie...anxiety, anger.
    Describe the needs met ie: toileting, food, drink, fluff pillows, ask for ice water etc. be specific and that will get the point across.
