It's a privilege that family put their trust on careworkers, to look after their parents, aunts, uncles etc. To ALL THE FAMILIES....THANK YOU FOR TRUSTING US ❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much, taking care of diementia patients is so demanding but l enjoyed doing it because caring for sick people is my calling and l love doing it
I used to be an RGN ( Registered General Nurse ) here in England - and so have looked after many people with dementia. I gave up nursing, mainly on the grounds that it`s a thankless job which one can really never get away from ( meaning, even on days off the phone rings.... ). When the Local Authority comes inspecting they`ll ask, `why is this person losing weight ?` Answer : Because they`re not eating. Question : Why are they not eating ? Answer : Because they have dementia, and no longer know how to eat. Question : So, what are you doing about it ? Question : What am I supposed to do about it ? Force food and liquid down their throat ? Of course we liase with family members, etc, but there`s a fine line between caring and comitting a crime ( by forcing someone to eat ) in such circumstances. I, clearly, am not - and never was - cut out for the job. I saved a few lives whilst I was a Nurse - and I can do no more than that.
thanks.. i work with dementia patients and its very demanding job, physically and emotionally. i get slaps, stuff thrown out, aggressive attack and even sexual attempts and this actions come come out unexpectedly. Sometimes its overwhelming and cant take time off work cos i need to pay bills
Bobby Lewis jr I’m a dementia nurse , and it’s not the job for just anyone , good training is very important, and lots of patience. Always remember these people once had full lives. They brought up children, and worked . Aggressive behaviour usefully stems from frustration and fear.
@@bobbylewisjr5250 Now that isn't either. When someone does get attacked by someone with dementia they are also a victim. An unintentional victim yes but still a victim too. Last night one of my residents with dementia got to a cna and threw her on to the floor and she landed on her back. Now of course she is a victim. He isn't an evil man, he is a sick man but when you get hurt physically or emotionally then you are a victim of what happens with dementia too. These nurses, cnas and activity workers are hard working people who do get hurt on the job and they should be able to vent as much as anyone else.
@@bobbylewisjr5250 Of course a person with dementia is suffering. They cannot help their behaviors but it doesn't diminish the effect on care-givers. All the people I know who care for dementia sufferers have physical scars from being lashed out at. When they get hit it still hurts.
I am asked to sit at home with a friend's family member. They only want the family to change them. They refuse to be rotated.They yell for me to leave them alone. I speak as softly as I can. When I gently touch them they yell for me not to touch them. I keep explaining I have to do it to make sure they are taken care of. Please help me.
is a person having dementia can't talk any more after 4-5 years of being diagnose? or hardly utter words and cant even know how to get up ? or how to walk..
