I spent this weekend nursing a very hard to please patient. Down with fever yet refused to take panadol. He used my words to slap my face.
- panadol will remain in our body
system for 6years! (I regretted telling him this fact) - I hate the panadol taste
- I confirm will vomit
- Panadol have no effect, if not don’t need doctors alrdy!
Above are part of his excuses to avoid taking panadol. I use soft tactics, he said that I’m not firm enough. Hard tactics; he said I’m being harsh on a sickly patient.
Got those gel pad stick onto his forehead& he complains of pain& asked why I put that inside fridge, made him feel v uncomfortable due to the freezing touch.
Gotta go back home bcos there’s school on Monday, now I’m here wondering if he did pop the pills& change the gel pad or not.
Morale of the story: I’m still very worried
