I'm a parent of a severely autistic child who has in home nursing care. I'm fed up with lazy nurses who secretly slip a few capsules of benadryl into my non verbal child's applesauce, so he'll sleep through most of their shift. I'm fed up with loquacious nurses who ramble on about personal problems when they are in our home to give us a break. I'm fed up with nurses who eat all our food. I'm fed up with nurses who use our phone to dial relatives overseas. I'm fed up with nurses who steal our clothes, money, dishes and yes, even a can of oysters. I'm fed up with the no show nurses who have every excuse from "I had to pick up a sick relative" to "I got lost" to "I forgot the time" or "my alarm clock didn't go off." I'm fed up with in home workers who sign their initials to treatment care plans like "checking vitals" when they never checked jack shit. I'm also fed up with the failure to think outside the box and get off your lazy ass and take the child outside to do some exercises instead of sitting down in front of TV. Look if you can't handle a severely autistic patient, don't waste the family's time. Don't take the case. Go watch a bed ridden 98 year old man and sit on your big fat ass all damn night for all we care. But don't expect a 12 year old severely autistic boy who likes to run all day to be sitting in a dark room why you text message your friends and talk jive on the cell phone. Now, to all the good nurses out there. YOU ROCK. To the bad ones, get another line of work. Let me tell you what I’m fed up with.
