Many of my customers, while I was working only wanted me to call, because I treated them the same. Without seeing there many afflictions.


NOT ALL CARERS ARE THE SAME

Put out your flippers,
Don't grasp.
You've eaten before,
Don't give them the chance.
To snigger and laugh,
Try not to twitch.
As they tap on your head,
Is anyone in?.
It's enough to make them grin,
They cannot see your anger and pain,
Holding your nose to open your mouth,
Putting all the pills in no water again.
As they watch you swallow them whole,
It's your life to them it's just a game.
They never realise it hurts just the same,
With every spiteful thing they do.
Cuts you like a knife,
It's not easy being a paraplegic,
All your given life.

We had to move our father-in-law from nursing home to nursing home, several times, until we found the ‘right one.’ Carers are indeed vary despite the customer care manual which is designed to keep things standard.
