In reality, she's probably jealous, and feeling a little guilty about the fact that she may not be as attentive to her resident's needs as you are. That's typically the issue when one person insults another for engaging in a kind act. You definitely had the right response to her, and frankly, you should be commended for being so courteous to your resident during your personal time off when you don't have to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5946276814268946467.post-90600756969628103712011-03-16T21:08:54.228-07:002011-03-16T21:08:54.228-07:00@thorn246-Thank u..I truley appreciate your words....@thorn246-Thank u..I truley appreciate your words.

I was a late child so I am 38 but it is difficult to say the least . I can only hope that when the day comes that I am unable to handle her daily care any longer that there is someone like you in the facility she will be in to care for her. These days the elderly are seen as a nuisence and pushed aside. We are ALL gonna be there someday and can only hope to be cared for the way you care for your patients .Thorn246https://www.blogger.com/profile/01586940976775282719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5946276814268946467.post-29690967614094468432011-03-15T10:11:00.194-07:002011-03-15T10:11:00.194-07:00Thanks ladies..I just get so upset sometimes when ...Thanks ladies..I just get so upset sometimes when my co-workers are bothered by me liking my residents.
