Thanks very much for this. I just got my pin and I must say I’ve started to feel the heat!😅 But the management in my care home is good, the support is massive. I started assisting the nurse with medication and managing the floor even before osce so it really helped when I started doing that myself. Yes there’s so much documentation to be done but everything is done on the computer eg. MAR charts and care records. If there is an emergency even though there’s no doctor around, just call 999 as you said and DOCUMENT that you have done that. It’s all about covering your back in the care home with documentation. If you don’t understand something, ask even if you think it’s a ‘stupid’ question and you’ll be fine. Make sure calls to any member of the multi disciplinary team is done and DOCUMENT. Have a small notebook on you and write a to do list so that you don’t forget anything and cross them off before your shift ends. Little by little we will get there👍
As a Carer you'll watch me do things and instantly judge me for them, you'll look down your nose and see me as nothing more than someone that deals with other people's body fluids and makes cups of tea. You'll wonder why I can walk out of a room and instantly into another, forgetting that I may have promised your relative a blanket or a cup of water because I was "distracted" by someone else. You'll wonder why I've walked past your relatives room and not entered theirs, you'll wonder why some people are attended to sooner and you'll curse my name under your breath as they wait. You'll wonder how I seem to have time to sit down and write and wonder why I cannot fix things immediately. You'll wonder how, under any circumstance, I could be sharing a smile or a laugh with a co-worker as if laughter has no place. As I walk in for my shift, you'll look at me, your eyes saying that you want me to help and you'll wonder why I can't just make that happen. But here's what, if you're very lucky, you'll never see. You'll never see me lose. You'll never see me take off my sweaty gloves and say a goodbye to someone I've cared for for months or even years You'll never see the weight that we carry home. For minutes or hours, days, or weeks, or even lifetimes. You'll never see our children's faces as we kiss them goodbye on Christmas morning so that we can make it a special day for your family member. You'll never see the deep breath we take as we walk into a room to prepare a loved one before family enter to say their last goodbye. You'll never see our hearts ache with the pain for those we have nursed and passed and those that continue to battle. You'll never see our minds as they tirelessly overthink and overwork scenarios, wondering how or if we could do something better next time. You'll never see us break the news that someone's husband or wife, that they have been married to for 50 plus years has died because they have forgotten again, you'll never see us comfort them as they cry. And for the most part, I'm okay that you can't see those things. It's my job to do, my burden to carry, and my labor of love and service so that you don't have to, so that the relationship you have remains as it always has been, so that you don't have to become their Carer. I'll take on that role for you. However, I'll be honest, there are times that I wish you could understand the alternative to your relative that's waiting. There are times I wish you understood the difference between urgency and emergency. And there are certainly times that I wish I could be transparent enough to tell you when your relative dies it breaks our hearts too. If you know, or love a Carer please do me a favor and just give them a hug. Or maybe a fist bump if hugging isn't their thing, or maybe even just a nod of approval but more anything please remember were more than just bottom cleaners and tea makers. We're working as hard and as fast as we can, and most days, it's never enough." Copy and share if you know, love or appreciate people that are 'just' carers.
I discovered your channel today but I must say your content is one of the best. I have watched several of your videos and I think ur made to be a leader or manager. Smthing special about how you present facts
Hi Beca good evening,trust you are doing great in London,I've watched all most all your video here and the I must say they are very educative, informative and inspiring.Will soon join you in London....hope to build friendship with you.👍👍
Woo my dear sister, you have done an excellent 👌 job here by enlightening so many of us who are, may and already in stuck with this, May God Almighty bless, protect, keep and increase you continually with wisdom etc in Jesus Mighty Name amen.
Thanks so much for this.i have been in a care home since march and am enjoying my role as an RGN, documentation no be here but am getting use to the routine and ours is done electronically.The residents are fun and cheerful though some can be annoying but all the same, understanding their moods will enable one have a stress free shift.And as you said Asking question is very important even if it's to call 111 for clarification.
Its good to let people know, as they will call you names which you have never heard in your life, and some can even do other messy deliberately and you need not to complain lf something happened to you as they have mental challenges.
Indeed, it's really challenging and can be depressing(personally). Patience dierr you need "fiftyBillion"🤦♀️But always ASK for help, call 111 when in doubt. Always thankful for event free shifts 😆 Thanks for this video.
Thank you Becca This is quite relieving I had a offer with a care home in Northern Ireland Conway group healthcare to be precise. Do you know anything about it? Thanks Annie Mark
If you like you abuse me, I don't care😀. Sorry you won't break my soul, I know why I am there and your insults won't get to me. Stay strong guys and ignore negativity.
Hi Becca you have done a good work, it's quite understanding if a patient with dementia hit you but if a patient without that, do the same can't you report. If am dealing with a patient and have not finished and am being called by another patient,will I be query for that, Becca am scared o please enlighten me thanks.
U will not be queried if u have to finish with one before u move yo another and u can fill an incident report or datix if a patient/relative/College abuses u
I appreciate this information as it prepares the prospective carers. However, would you kindly tell us what should one do if this happen? Are there no laws or policies pertaining such things? Or do I just get beaten as a carer and I go to hospital and that is it? If workers are not safe at their work place, can I file a case against the employer??
Actually everything you said is true about the carehome is 💯 true, if I saw this video back home I wouldn't have come to a carehome, for me it really stressing in a carehome , I'm not coping well in a carehome, I wish I can go to nhs but trap with the money to pay them back Do carehome allow transfer to another carehome
I was racially abused by a resident in August on a night shift, mehn I cried a river. I stood there looked at the time (wee hrs of the night) I should have been asleep but Charley here I am packing shit n being racially abused on top. Care paa dierr it's a means to an end for me n that night solidified it for me. may God see us through🙏
Care home nursing is a mind field. It is what we call " Granny farming". That's the ugly truth. The reality is those shiny brochure saying home from home, is rubbish. It is about money. If any nurse gets in the way, with the NMC rules, you are on your way out. Private owners want cash and that's it. Care homes should be publicly owned, the standards would be better and happier residents and families. You are so spot on with getting struck off. NMC doesn't want to hear it. The private owners, with no qualifications, will get you in a heap of trouble. Make sure you know your stuff. That said, residents are brilliant and should be the priority above the private owners. Lastly, the grass is not greener, do not be fooled.
My dearest pads are everywhere, even in hospitals, personally i had an operation this year but I had to wear pad and catheter nurses had to help me change my pad.
My sister, that cannot happen in America ever, and it just goes away like that. NO WAY!!! America have zero tolerance for abuse both from the client to the caregiver or from the caregiver to the client.
His sister Becca greetings to you please ma i just came across your post now am a cameroonian and a certified nursing assistant with 7months experience in a hospital settle here in dubai please i really like to relocate to uk i dont even know where to start or what to do please is there any sponsorship visa that can be of help please sister please
The whole point of moving to the UK is money , money Money after watching your videos have come to decide that ill rather work in a care home than in the NHS..
I'm just proud of you Auntie Beca 😊😊...may the Lord continue to lift you and also increase your knowledge and wisdom. You are a blessing to GH and the WORLD 💪.
I am imagining someone going through those troubles to make some money then your unappreciative relatives in the motherland keep bugging you to give them money.
If a resident assaults or verbally abuses you, you may report him to the police and/ or sue him, as you could anywhere else. Workplace is absolutely no different.
Yes, true, but all these customers, got dementia and are old and sick. If you work in this job, you have to put up with it. Sad, but true. I'm working since 7years in care.
My father has dementia. He is frightened of people who do not look and speak like him. This is his homeland and these people are foreign to him. He cannot understand their accents or ways.
Leave that thing because you hav make already even we the blacks ourselves we killing each other so what some people have bad luck some people have good luck let me go and experience it my self don’t come there’s nothing here but they will come and house’s
