@hersecretshift: Patients lie. Healthcare workers know. And sometimes we just stand there smiling like we didn’t hear the most suspicious sentence of our entire career. Healthcare workers what’s the most obvious lie a patient has ever told you? #funny #relateable #healthcare #nursing #fyp
In fairness, to the pain one, if you’ve been repeatedly ignored and your pain gets worse so you go for help if you say you’ve had it for 3 years they will just fob you off without even letting you explain it’s become significantly worse

The questions about smoking need to change to “do you use any nicotine containing products”. I work in research and when vaping was blowing up, the question was changed because most patients wouldn’t consider vaping smoking but it is a nicotine containing product.

Don't lie to your healthcare workers! They are there to help you. No matter what you have done or who you are, they will do anything in their power to do so.

In fairness to the smoking one a lot of insurance companies including mine charge a fee for smokers and lower the medical help they will allow if you smoke. I “quit” smoking when they wouldn’t approve me for medications that were pricey but have absolutely nothing to do with smoking. I got approved and have since quit for real.

Okay but a tobacco pouch doesn’t mean smoking? Unless it’s a much for rolling their own cigs, it’s probably chewing tobacco. So you should be more specific about what you want to know instead of expecting patients to read your mind.

“i only received the letter the day after the appointment” oh how coincidental when the appointment was booked over a month ago and we sent the letter that same day. just tell us you forgot about it, we respect the honesty more than this overused line.

Tbh I grew up receiving poor healthcare. I did not know how unwell I was. So I never felt pain or illness until I got decent health care… so frankly “I’m fine” and “pain started today” are legit for me🤷♀️

Stretching the definition of healthcare worker, I'm an optician. I totally believe you just opened your glasses case this morning to discover them twisted so badly the case wouldn't have closed in the first place.

I take my medicine everyday. And yet your refill history says otherwise. The refill was for 90 days. Okay, and we are 5 months out from your last refill. The pharmacy records are wrong. I not saying that could never happen, but probably not.
