A lot to think about : Wandering through a Care Home

Some of the resident do get visitor s and sometimes they're relative wants to complain that the carers are not caring enough. but there's a confusion here between what kind of care you are talking about. the characters are there to this after the physical well-being cleanliness and food for the patients. They're paid a relatively low wage for so called women's work. extremely kind and good. but the carers are not cyclist therapists or social workers and they cantprovide a social life for the residents. it's the managers who decide on the number of staff probably as low as possible to get the work done do you think it's a vocation to be a carer? is there a Catholic nuns in a religious order then there may be a rotation but women getting work which fits in with family commitments is very difficult and then they're do this work because they want they need the money but basically the management has to do what they're told by the owners. this economic s

I find it hard that staff say but they will come and talk to me in five minutes and then they do not come and when it's something important and that is very upsetting. constantly waiting and if you are anxious is very hard. and then we can feel as if we are of no value or no importance to anybody at all because even when my neighbours daughter comes and she knows that something is wrong she speaks or writes to the manager or the deputy manager but nothing happens so she gives up despair can set in, once a new nursre came to my room and she said to me Gosh this room shows you are alive with your books and you r laptop your artwork and she said for many of the people this is if they're dead the room so clean and neat. and I have thought the same thing. when a carer just straighten my bed when I was bed bound she told me off for making the sheet crumpled by moving. I said I am moving because I am alive if I stopped moving I would be dead.

if you RN nursing home are you receive very very old and got dementia if you fall out with flu or pneumonia not much incentive to get better because you cannot see a future for yourself other than what you see in these people around you sitting and watching the television or just sitting doing nothing all day long. some don't have visitotd. why get well. you will only have to go through this again and again until you die so why not die now?

Yes some days the screaming is less affecting. Those who weep seem to be comforted. The staff more relaxed. Annoying things are een as humorous. Spring is in the air. Someone bring me some snowdrops Someone brings me a chocolate eclair I had a poor appetite but it's better and enjoy this cake. But it's still boring exit when I start writing poems or one of my friends writes. Something isn't right in the morning but before lunch something shift inside me and I feel as if I am standing on stable ground again All is right with the world
