Work sucks sometimes... This is like a phrase used to start a composition.. i could just go on and on... and it would reach no end... i just feel really unappreciated no matter how hard i try sometimes... Firstly i am upset cause i was attending to this patient for 3 or 4 times getting her up and down the bed... and she is so damn freaking heavy but i just discharged my duties as this is my job... The aunt's family keep on wanting us to transfer from bed to chair, from chair to commode numerous times... i attended to her although its not even my patient. Obviously inside my head and mind i would not be happy to do it but i just did it... so after my break i came back and it just so happened that her call bell was on and no one was attending to it, so me and my colleague went to attend and we saw the aunty back on the chair when before my break i had put her back on bed... so i just commented "huh... how come she is back on the chair again" Thats all i said... After that, the aunty's daughter who overheard this said sarcastically, "You CANNOT
be like this u know, these patients are very old and suffering". "how can u pass these sort of remarks""U all should try to understand them and grant them their wishes." Then i was so diaoz... she just kept on rambling on and on but i couldn't bother to listen to her so just put her back to bed with my friend's help... I just feel quite irritated but its just something i have to swallow . I really wanted to say something back at her but i think if i said anything it wouldn't have been something pleasant...
I really feel irritated. Sometimes no matter how much u try to help someone, ppl just dun seem to appreciate it... And its frustrating. i dun even thinki said something wrong or sarcastic or was complaining. It was just a comment that i was saying to my colleague. A aptient of family member can always vent their anger on us or treat us as high class maids but we can never do the same or voice out our frustration. Just becuase this is our job and they are freaking "customers", we are suppose to give the service with a smile... SHIT!!!! I understand how patients are miserable and we need to empathise with them... I dun expect u understand how we feel but at least treat us as human beings and not maids or robots...
I just feel so disapointed with this world sometimes....
