I've had my fill this week of rude and/or inappropriate patients, either to me or to the CNAs I'm working with in the room. I always limit set with them--as professionally as possible, of course--so, in the moment, they will back off. As soon as I have to go back into the room, it starts again.
What the hell? This is ridiculous. I have yet to figure out what makes them think they can talk like that to people who are doing their best to take care of them when they are sick.
Being sick is no excuse for ongoing rudeness. Maybe once, but after limit setting, STOP!
Rant over.
