what’s keeping you from getting the rest you need.
And after all, no one expects you to look your best
when you’re in the hospital.”
• Patient: “You’d think my doctor would have
prevented me from getting phlebitis, but he’s
too busy to care about what’s happening to
me.”
• Nurse: “You’re wrong, Mr. Iverson. Of course
he cares.”
• Nurse: “You seem to be kind of restless
tonight.”
Patient: “Nobody cares. My doctor wants me
to go—just go on home. He doesn’t care?”
Nurse: “Go home?”
• Patient: “Maybe I should find a hobby or
something. I try not to get discouraged; I
know I shouldn’t let it get me down.”
Nurse: “That’s the right attitude. It really
doesn’t help to worry about it.”
• Nurse: “How are you feeling this morning, Mr.
Patterson?”
Patient: “Oh, fine, thanks.” (unenthusiastic)
Nurse: That’s good.
• Patient: “I can’t go home with this…AIDS. If
they want me out of here so bad, why don’t
they just let me die?”
Nurse: “You can’t go home because you have
AIDS?”
• Patient: “Well, I haven’t been able to work for
quite a while now, and the doctor says I might
not ever work as a carpenter again.”
Nurse: “It must be difficult for you right now,
but I’m sure everything will be all right.”
• Patient: "I'm just jumpy-I get like this
sometimes. I guess it's because I didn't get too
much sleep last night."
Nurse: "Yes, when you don't get a good night's
sleep it does make you edgy."
• Patient: "What's there to talk about? First they
say they have to operate, and then when I'm
beginning to feel better, I get this infection. I
don't think I'm ever going to get out of here!"
Nurse: "I know just how you feel. You know,
everyone gets frustrated when things aren't
going right."
Listening Exercise
• Pair up with another student.
• Person A will tell person B her/his most
memorable recent experience. Person B
should try to think about a problem they have
or an assignment coming up while person A is
speaking.
• Discuss how you felt about both roles and
experiences, with person A speaking first.
• Person A then tells the same story again,
taking about the same amount of time. This
time person B will concentrate as much as
possible on person A and on what he/she is
saying.
• Share the differences between these two
experiences and discuss the relevance this
may have when person A is a client and
person B is a nurse.

lady?” Which initial response by the nurse would
be most helpful to the aide?
• “It is not appropriate for nursing personnel to
make judgments about people.”
