    I've done it all except , 5. Thank you very much. These tools were not taught 38 years ago. I keep tripping up myself, then get a talking too but with no real communication help!This will help me a lot. You are terrific!

    im sooo glad i came across this video (you got a new fan here lol!) im currently in my first year of nursing school (i just entered second semester) after just graduating from high school. ive been extremely worried over how id respond to patients in situations like these once i start my clinical placement next week, and because we've been taught not to promise them ANYTHING no matter what. so this is soo reassuring to me, thank you for all you're doing

    Having to teach virtually and going to use this for my students to critically think about communication and give them different scenarios and see how they do. Thanks! Definitely guilty of the false hope.....cheerleader nurse ;-)

    WOW @9:20 that was AWESOME therapeutic conversation. Although I've found that the real issue is people being in denial about their state and saying "I want to go home" is really just a wish "i wish I wasn't sick and didn't need to be here ". But I still like the approach! 🤗

      You add another perspective to consider - the key is to find out from them what they mean

    when you ask the patient open - end question, that means we can't ask him/her question like:( have you ask anybody?),,,,,have you considered..... they can just ask by yes or no which is close- end question.,,, in general you were great ..., thanksssss

    • @NurseMinder
      @NurseMinder  3 роки тому +1

      Asking a question such as “have you considered …” can be used as a checkpoint or clarification- and then from their answer explore more

    My biggest mistake is saying to patients, "don't worry. We will fix you up"

    I love this!!! I wonder if it will be okay to use your videos with my students who are first year nursing students in Japan? Of course I will have to pre-teach some of the vocabulary. I think the 5 traps and 5 great ways are excellent to know.
    Thank you

    About a month ago I had a 40 years old female patient came to clinic for consultation ,I asked her what bring you here ?she said “I have cervix cancer “ (with a kind of smile on her face and she answered my question very quick) it totally shut me ,I have a couple seconds standing there without a word,then I say we will take care of you...... Really don’t know what else to say

    • @NurseMinder
      @NurseMinder  3 роки тому +1

      Yes. Sometimes we can feel uncertain as to what to say. It sounds like you handled that moment with grace :)

    We had a 9 month old boy have a seizure. Family was eating dinner and the kid started seizing. The family thought he was choking until they realized he was seizing. We arrived on scene and told the family we would take care of their baby and that seizures are extremely common and nothing to worry about. I took the time to explain some of the things we do and that their son would need to follow up with primary care to probably get medicated for new onset epilepsy. Mom hugged me and dad shook my hand and we rolled out! We adminstered versed, more versed, more versed and nothing. That child continued to seize for 45 minutes, was RSI'd at the hospital and died in the trauma bay. I left and cried and cried. My son was 8 months old at the time and to this day I feel horrible for telling that family that we would take care of their child. I have seen horrible mutilations, people burn alive in front of me, decapitations etc... but nothing has ever affected me like this child seizing. I was watching a commercial two months later about gerber and broke down in tears about the event out of nowhere. I had no idea I was still harboring these feelings that much longer down the road.

      I am so sorry to hear about this and how it continues to affect you. It is understandable with what you have shared. I came home many times from the hospital and simply hugged my family because I could - and the family I was caring for at the hospital no longer was able
      You were confident in your assessment and skill set. You could not have predicted what would happen. I do hope you find peace with your heart centered intentions to help that baby and their family.
