@lyssacrockett14: making and/or hearing them laugh is truly the highlight of my days. im both proud and grateful to be a healthcare worker 🤍 sincerely, your grandma’s (and pa’s) favorite nurse 😉 #nursetok #nurselife #directorofnursing #lyssacrockett14 #assistedliving #nursesoftiktok #ygfn #yourgrandmasfavoritenurse #yourgrandmasfavnurse
It depends on the person. Some of them are my besties some I'm just putting my best customer service voice on and getting through it. There is one specific man who I show videos of my kid playing

I treat my residents like my children because I get attached so easily I’d take me all home honestly

I see my residents as bonus grandparents even on my skilled side.. I get to know them and some I can joke with and some we just talk.. but in my eyes they are bonus grandparents

I 100% do this in long term care. I do in in acute care too.. I love everyone I take care of. Even the mean ones, I am sure they have a story that made them who they are.

I love banter with my residents and I find it makes the job less miserable and actually brightens their day and builds a great relationship with them

Like family, while maintaining professional boundaries. I never understood the whole “don’t get attached” “don’t spend too much time with them” mindset. We’re working with human beings

100%. I worked in a jail until recently.I always tried to connect with them as people. there was mutual respect and they always knew I was going to take care of them. A lot of them I could joke w/ 2.
