My Mother's Life Dedicated to the Only Woman I'll Love, My Mother.

Todays worker, a substitute (Augustina), has been here before.  Still, so was Monday’s worker (Charlotte). The new rule in this house, all new workers who haven’t been here for some time, get to read the new care plan.

IT IS SIMPLE, THEY CAN’T BE EXPECTED TO REMEMBER EVERY DETAIL FOR EVERY PATIENT, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY HAVEN’T BEEN THERE FOR WEEKS OR MONTHS.

SO WHY BITCH ABOUT HAVING TO READ WHAT IS EXPECTED?

And yet, that is exactly what today’s worker did. Very argumentative, because gee, she is limited on time.  Well she is here for FIFTY MINUTES, she has plenty of time to spend 5 minutes or even 10 minutes to read the plan. 

IT AVOIDS MISTAKES & UNNECESSARY QUESTIONS.

It also insures that I don’t forget to detail something, which is possible.  I do not get what is the matter with workers today. Is it NO LONGER a profession, but merely a paycheck?  Is that all that really matters to these people?

I cannot believe the attitude I got, from simply insuring that the Care Plan be read. I was forced to stand, and say, either read it, or leave.  Seriously, if something is going to make your work go faster, and be properly done, why object to it?  What are you afraid of?

This whole bullshit, is becoming almost comical, in a Keystone Cop way.

Schedules altered at the last second, phone calls with out right lying about changes, under the guise of being helpful, in informing us of changes.   It is BULLSHIT!    It happens so often, it is like some childish game being played out.

BOTTOM LINE »  It is my Mother, and I WILL protect her interests, at any cost. If some worker thinks otherwise, or if Beacon Community Services think they can wear me down, they ALL have another thing coming.   I WILL NOT BACKDOWN!
