@hersecretshift: Nobody really prepares you for what it’s like when someone you love ends up in hospital 🏥 As healthcare workers these things can become part of our everyday working lives. But for families, it can be one of the most frightening experiences they’ve ever faced. And sometimes understanding WHY something is happening makes it just that little bit less scary 🤍 #healthcare #hospital #fyp #patient #nhs
As someone who was the patient, I dont think its easy for families to understand just how hard recovery is. Not just physically but emotionally too. Being that sick is very very scary and it takes a toll on your mind and body thats hard to explain

Families realising ageing doesn't mean getting better. It means a gradual decline. It means what can we do now? This is the new normal.

as the patient who is chronically ill the things I am not told are scary to me. overhearing "complete heart block" and then asking what was going on (as theyre cutting my clothes off and sticking paddles on my chest) and being told its nothing was much scary than them just explaining

That sometimes we sit by their beds until they go to sleep because they're frightned or confused and that we check on them all through the night , they'r never alone , even though they think they are.

Incidental findings. My mum went in a week ago with sepsis, overcame it but they found a brain tumour during her CT. She’s still there now because of an incidental finding, not something we ever considered happening. I wish I had seen this post a week ago though!
