Hi guys!
I am a very patient person and I have dealt with really bad family members. But today I almost LOST IT!!!
it was 1830 almost time for me to give report. ANyways, the daughter of this patient comes in and start asking me all these questions. So I am answering very politely, etc. Then she asked me If I could put Lotion on his arms and hands because they looked dry. So I said ok and did it while I was talking with her. When I finished I washed my hands and put the lotion away and she says: oh.. honey you missed a spot!!!!! could you put more here??!!! I was like!!! you gotta be kidding me!!??? I felt like crap like I was her maid!! I looked at her and said, here hon, you can do it. and left. GOSH!!! I told my charge nurse and she felt the same way I did, totally insulted!
gosh... thanks for letting me vent!
