It is ingrained in the training of nurses to be compassionate and patient with their patients, even when the latter happens to be rude or difficult. They understand that illness alters one’s feelings and personality. When it comes to such events, here is how they would act-
Empathy and Compassion: Nurses understand the psychology of the patient and seek to understand the patient’s emotions and feelings.
Effective Communication: They communicate in a clear and soft tone where the patient feels comfortable and all his fears are calmed.
-Patient comfort: The nurse first ensures that the patient is comfortable with the setup.
-Personalized care: They have such ability that allows them to develop the strategy bearing in mind the individual and preferences and requirements each patient has.
-Dietary consideration: while feeding a patient, they take into account on what the patient must not, what he or she likes, and his or her health condition. They might have to contact a nutritionist for the healthy feeding of the patient.
Healthcare providers bear the brunt of mental weariness and boredom arising from the situations they endure; it however, comes with the expectation that they do not show or act on these pressures within the confines of their profession. They’re deemed as poised members of that profession. Compassionate care, care giving and presence to every patient remain the priority and the challenge.
