Actually now that I have a fenistrated trache in an can breathe I am fine - showered - changed - cleaned my room - checking emails etc... I am just appalled apt the lack of Concern for a patient - who cannot communicate and Is having trouble breathing. Its terrifying that the do this day after day to people - stick them in a room and leave them - with no ability to communicate - difficulty breathing - and then not come when you're called.. I dunno but I would fire someone like that since airway is priority - I am pretty self sufficient - but when you are that vulnerable you are all right - someone should b there to advocate. I always used to look at the patients and see the individual - and try to put myself in their soies - it's a perspective a few of them cold learn. Thanks guys you all are amazing
