How do you handle inappropriate touching from patients?
I have not been in this situation. However, if I were I would possibly due one of several things. Tell them their behavior is inappropriate and unwelcome. Report this behavior to the charge nurse. Get someone to accompany me next time I enter their room. See if someone else can be assigned to them.
