How can you learn?
You can learn without help, use trial and error. Make costly errors and WITH ANY LUCK learn from those errors.
The predicament is that many people do not learn from their errors, because they don't realise that an error has been made.
Errors are expensive in time, energy and money.
Or you could learn from the experience of others.
So how do you do that? How do you prioritise the different pulls on your time and energy?
From the family's perspective first the accessing of information on the health and physical condition your loved one must be your first priority. You don't need me to tell you that. You probably have already been there and done that. However the concerns that you will have resulting from that contact in hospital is making your head spin. Correct? So do you need to talk to someone? Our forum and blog is a start point.
How useful is it to you at an early stage to have some sort of medical input? Nursing and Medicine are different. Doctors are trying to solve the medical problem that is presented there and then. Nurses assist doctors in their task and try to make your stay as comfortable as they can make it. They also look to your physical, mental and social needs in the present and for the future. Nursing is a crucial area to you and your family. Make it a high priority.
Some people are blissfully unaware of the treatment that they are given in hospital. Others have issues with the treatment given. How can you be sure that the best possible medical team are giving the best possible treatment in the best possible hospital for your loved one's condition?
If you have concerns with anything in regard to the above then the Personal Mentoring Service may be the service you are seeking.
