I together with the rehab assistant tried to get her to walk, but we were not able to convince her to even stand from sitting in the chair. I explained to her that if she wanted to go back to the residential home she will have to practice walking with us, but she just looked at me and didn’t seem to respond to that. Both the rehab assistant and I tried to convince her by explaining in different ways but she just wouldn’t get up. After 20 minutes of trying we gave up. Later that day I discussed the dementia patient with my supervisor.

The patient made it very clear that she did not want the phlebotomist to draw her blood (Finnegan, 2013).This same phlebotomist has drawn her for several days for a Prothrombin Time (PT) and Activated Thromboplastic Time (aPTT) without incident, so he reports this situation to the nurse. The nurse informs the phlebotomist that the patient has formed a complaint against him and did not want him, in particular, to draw her blood. The blood had been drawn from the dorsal side of her hand for several days, which was now bruised and swollen. The patient complained of moderate pain, especially when she moved her fingers. Upon observation there was a diffuse ecchymosis over the dorsal side of the hand that extends up the forearm to the elbow.

Daphne had been written up and reported several times for having to leave the job to get to her kids for whatever reasons.

Of course, this is a strange pursuit because it requires searching for a propensity while at the same time it has always being inside me. One evening, when I returned from school I found out that my Aunt had gone through Uterine artery embolization. She was lying in bed with severe pain, prescribed with a couple of narcotics to control it. Despite being warned by the doctor of the pain she will go through if she lives the hospital after the procedure, she was forced to leave for the fear of how much it will cost her to stay overnight. I tended to the needs of my ill aunt and during this period of time, the idea of playing nurse never crossed my mind; rather, care giving was a way of life.
I could see the catheter bag hanging from the bed which was filling up with blood instead of urine. I thought I was going to bleed to death as I can not accept blood transfusions, due to my religious beliefs. After a week in the hospital, the fluid in the catheter bag started gradually turning yellow. On day seven, the doctor came to my room and gave me the best news that I have heard in a long time. He said “Kerry you can go home but will need to follow-up with your doctor”.
