Hello AN people,
I am in private duty home health and I assist with my patients with all sorts of odd things as part of being their go-to gal in their home.
This weekend I had a blast assisting a patient make a Facebook page.
It really did warm my heart because this patient is extraordinarily isolated due to medical and psychological issues. He is learning to use a communicator to reconnect to the world around him, and one of his first forays into new territory is to make a Facebook page. Suddenly all the junk info I knew about Facebook became useful, and this patient made a stride in coming out of his shell.
What sort of weird little things you have done as a nurse? Stuff that made you go, "I'm doing this on the clock? Really?"
