I'm very sorry your not happy with your partners care, however your more than welcome to take them home or to another care facility if you desire.
I work in aged care and love it, that being said I really dont think that the general public have a bloody clue as to how underpaid nursing and care staff are compared to how much hard work we put in plus all the BS to go along with it.
Now granted I have only been a nurse for approx 3 yrs and i have grown so much in that time but my patience on the other hand has grown very thin. I know it sounds mean but tell me why is it that when someone is unwell we as nurses spend more time looking after the relatives emotionally when our focus is to be directed towards the patient.
I think that for every person that complains about every little nit picky thing that there should be a program that automatically enrolls them into a 1 day full on session and actually do an 8 hr shift where thay have to change dirty pads, and wipe bottoms as well as try to undress people who dont want to have a shower and will resist you at every turn.
maybe they should try to feed someone who wont open their mouth and then also try to get them to drink 4-5 cups of fluid a day.... the list goes on and i have to say i have had enough of the guilt ridden baby boomers who think they know it all.
walk a mile in any one of my care staff's shoes and then tell me how easy it is to look after 30+ elderly demented time consuming patients plus all the paperwork that needs to be done and then tell me how easy it is. Or how about they be somewhat thankful that they dont have to do this at home, or that they are somewhere being verbally and or physically abused.
LOL anyone else want to add their 2 bobs.
