I want to know what is up with patients refusing care lately. Half my patients yesterday were saying No to everything from the mundane (finger stick checks) to the the clinically important (refusing IV access and blood draws to determine treatment) and, with how exhausted and overworked all of us are now I don’t have the time or patience to get on my knees and talk them through every single nitpick they have about the food or bedding or whatever. 
Hospitals are overflowing and overrun and even my good will and patience can run out. Here is what I want to say to my patients who come to the hospital and won’t let us help without explanation: Go Home. Stop taking up a bed someone else desperately wants if you don’t want us to treat you. We told you what we need to do to get you better, multiple people have come in and explained in varying different ways. I don’t have the time or energy to cater to your every little desire, to wait on you hand and foot like you’re at a day spa. 
I am here to fix or at least manage your medical condition and if you will not let me or others do what we need to in order to get you to that point then Leave.

Unfortunately, that's part of my job. Not everyone gets saved in the ER. Plus in the hospital where I work there is a very large group who has very strict rules about death, so frequently we admit people to die either to the floor if we suspect it'll be a couple days, or the ER if we think it'll be quick. Death can be a beautiful process, or it can be horrific, and traumatizing...just depends how ya look at it.

Once upon a time, I was like 13 or 14. I was hanging out with my mom while she cooked dinner and eating a carrot. I suddenly sneezed. I then had a carrot chunk stuck in my sinuses. I could feel it, but mom didn't believe me. So for 3 days straight I blew my nose constantly. And I finally got the carrot chunk out.
