LOL! Twice this week men who are dear to me have fallen down. They are very old, and also too spry for their own good! It is remarkably hard to try to protect their dignity and pride, while rushing in to make sure they are okay.
Yeah, that’s a true thing, IB. I deal with that in my work life. My resident’s need help, but it’s really hard for them to accept that sometimes. Meaning, occassionally they push the envelope to far and I have to pick people up It’s rather an art to deal with that in a way that keeps them safe and also preserves their dignity. Plus, there are certain life function nobody really wants to have to have help with, but sometimes they have to.
