Great topic. I just got released tonight after an 8 day stay to ditch my pneumonia… As with every job in this life, you’re gonna come across just as many patients (clients) that know less about their health and treatments as you will encounter those who know 10x more about their health issues than yourself. I had 3 RT’s walk away without connecting the oxygen tube they just disconnected 5 minutes before a treatment. I’m ok with letting them know their mistake without being condescending towards them. I do think that many nurses look down on RT’s which is bullshit…because I find them very undereducated with only booksmarts instead of compassion. It is what it is
"Upper hand"? like we're intentionally being difficult? How do you deal with difficult doctors who lie about things you've already researched many times and know better? Ya know, the doctors who treat the symptoms and act like they don't know the route cause? Yeah, how do you deal with that?
@@johnskarns1607 That's a great idea! However, I've been through too many doctors who are like that to even trust another one ever again. I get more accurate information about my conditions from my research, I just get tired of it because I have ADHD and can't read too much because my brain automatically distracts itself and I don't retain much of the info. I'm beginning to think that my life itself is actively killing me. I give up. If I'm meant to live, whatever's wrong with me will go away. Otherwise, it doesn't much matter as I have nothing to live for anyway. 😞
I find the more the patient is disagreeable and difficult. The more the nurse bothers them ,, just stay away give the patient some room, don’t bark don’t be bossy, sarcastic and demanding…
You’ll Never Guess What Happened To Me! I was given a brain cat scan a year ago for nothing out of malpractice and then the doctor said I don’t know why you were given a brain cat scan. I went in for gas in the stomach and got a brain cat scan smh. After the scan I started having foamy urine to this day, dark spots appearing on left foot, toe pain, flank pain and pain in the kidneys in the back that comes and goes, burning in stomach, frequent urination and much more. I got a kidney ultrasound and it came back normal, urine test and it was also normal, no protein but I still have foamy urine for a year now, flank pain and toe pain. What should I do? I’m Only 33 Years Old! A Young Black Male. I Want The Foamy Urine To End Please
If they gave you the nuclear dye, telling you it's completely safe, that's why! I was talked into Gadolineum dye when I told them I cannot have dye or chemicals of any kind! Sure as Sugar, I had severe reactions, & GADOLINEUM DYE WAS RECALLED 2 DAYS LATER, LIKE TOO MANY FDA APPROVED DRUGS ARE! Wishing you the best . You might try a cleanse..
Empathy Making them feel herd Do not argue Empathy Stay calm Donot take insult personally Have complete understanding of integrated health care model and bio psychosocial model Learn relaxation techniques Stay calm and composed Ask for help from a senior colleague/ consultant , refer the patient if you are not making any headway Always sit at a 45 degree angle with respect to the patient Maintain an open body posture Set boundaries Always have a look at the emergency exit Take history in a more funnier way.
If you’re a patient, don’t feel the need to tell your doctor your life’s story. Just answer their questions. Less is more. Your doctor doesn’t like it if you think you know more than him or her. So keep your answers as short as possible.
09/20/2022 How do I handle a difficult ER DR? Very well known about her history of near abuse. COmments to upper staff. Shortage of staff. She was over scheduled. She worked all night. All BS. She would not allow any clean up of blood on neck, shoulders, chest, back, arm and hands. I refused OXY. She went nuts. Wrote me up as a difficult patient on permanent record. Rude, short temper, and bad sercice. She forbade other staff to help. I had to return to ER by Ambulance. Different ER DR. So much better but would not discuss the other DRs work. Management said she was overscheduled, short staff. My record is now scarred. Don
The more easy way to manage difficult patient is just to ignore them, actually we help them when they need but if it not urgent just leave them. This is happening to me as well.
In the U.S, sedation is usually welcomed by the patient, but frowned upon by the lawyers and finger pointers who essentially are choosing your “ best interest “ for your livelihood and health. You have to tell them how it’s gonna be, or you’ll get pushed in the ER room hallway for hours
@@jphb7730 your right....here by us they push you in the ER hallways for hours and make you wait until you pass out or fall over before they will attend to you and not even then i think they would
What you’re saying is hospitals are war zones, conflict between patient and nurse is unnatural. Something is definitely wrong with the system and how nurses perceive patients, health care is definitely screwed up, patients are the enemy, and that crazy…

What can you do about a GP who won't let you talk - she already knows whats wrong with you and why!!!!!! I'm changing PA's
Awesome Topic! I would say no. 4 - Don’t Take it Personally is a really good one, though it is easier said than done sometimes.

Q: *What’s the difference between God and a doctor?*
A: _God doesn’t think He’s a doctor._
@@DaRyteJuan Another difference between god and a doctor is that doctors actually exist. 🤣
@@travismorse4762 True. But that’s not how the joke goes. lol
@@DaRyteJuan I guess you're right, but it's funny either way. 😆
First thing . Ensure your personal safety.

I know 1 way straight how to manage a difficult patient....One way and the only way: SEDATE THEM... Bam....easy as that.... lol 🤣😂🤣
In the U.S, sedation is usually welcomed by the patient, but frowned upon by the lawyers and finger pointers who essentially are choosing your “ best interest “ for your livelihood and health. You have to tell them how it’s gonna be, or you’ll get pushed in the ER room hallway for hours

Give ‘em a hot enema !
That’s fucking weird
Lol....or sedate them....that's 1 way to handle a patient

Just lock them in the morgue………
