That is what the institutions are for and the speciality of it. I had one resident named Hoyt. His wife did her utmost to help him out and she wasn't in the best condition herself. She slept in a single bed by his bed. His cancer worsen every day. He was a very cantankerous person and the cancer just made their relationship worse. Finally, the kids of the couple said enough and took Momma home. Bless the ladies' sweet heart but he was just too much for her and the kids knew that. She made our jobs easier by taking care of him but then eventually she would get on the call light before she eventually left and asked me for help with him.
We have one lady named Ruby who has the bag right at the stomach. They sure have gotten smaller than what they used to be. I asked Ruby this morning just before I clocked out if she needed help with it. She said no but said thanks for asking. I have some that can be really hard to deal with at times and I can understand. I know you must still love her but have trouble dealing with her as she is. I have trouble understanding some of the illnesses especially when there are more than one. I can certainly empathise.
I think competition is good. What gets me is that we have banks all over the place here but just a few hospitals. When they used to have the gas wars it would bring the price of gasoline down because they wanted your business. Why is it not that way in the medical profession? It would seem if a medical facility did not live up to your expectations or a medical practioner did not treat you right you could just go elsewhere. Here there are few elsewheres to go.
I have a little Spitz that chews on everything. She is getting long now with the German Schnauzer. Soon I will be getting a French Poodle. I can't wait to see how they all interact. The Spitz and me just about butted heads when she started chewing on my pillow. So far my shoes have been left alone but finding socks that match requires looking under the bed at times.
How do you take this one? Low maintenance and high maintenance. Low maintenance means that it doesn't need much maintenance and high maintenance means it needs a lot of maintenance?

I can live with that.
What is the best way to develop a bedside manner?
I don't blame you.
