Health care not for everyone

Being a health care worker is not all that it seems to be. There are going to be times you will want to give up and quit. You can not take no more. It is a very stressful job. Just becasue it looks easy or sounds easy. No matter what field you are in it is not. Stress, Stress.

Here a few simple things to think about when you are looking at health care for a work.

How much stress can you handle. Watching someone die. Helping family with the love one after they are dead. Helping them during the dieing process. Watching family cry, or being torn apart. Watching a baby die or a child.

Helping someone that does not want help but can not do it. Stress you have to get firm but be nice and try to find a solution. Keep going back till you find one.

Being able to bath, clohes and help them with tolieting. Seeing people of all shapes and sizes and dealing with that.

Taking care of the opposite sex and not being afraid or nervous. Dealing with them in a very professional manner. Cleaning the privates well.

There are alot of things Compassion for them, true caring,long hours, understaff, and have to say most the time underpaid for the job you do.

Doing for them when they can not. Being a friend and helping them. But sepreating that from being health care worker.

There is alot to concider and you may want to look really good into it.
I have been one for 15 years and just recently had to give it up.
Due to my health and the stress was to much for me.
I would give anything to go back but for now. No to much.

careers in the health industry are the most sensitive ones . They requires equally the most hard work plus skills . I have few doctors in my family . There is an uncle of mine , he is so dedicated to his work , also the fact that he runshis own lab and sometimes even while like after the day when he takes rest and has dinner then , some patients usually come , he leaves the dinner in between in case of an emergency . Thats something called dedication .
