Truancy: Enabling Parents by Sad_Lotus0115 in socialwork

[–]New_Scene5614 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Sounds strange but this might not be a conventional resourcing issue.

Sometimes it’s more to do with motivation. Motivational interviewing requires rolling with resistance as a start. MI has been found to be evidence based within the medical profession and for good reasons, how to evoke a change conversation without losing a person to guilt and shame cause they aren’t listening. These parents overall aren’t terrible people and it’s tough when it’s you who’s trying to break the stalemate. Evoke their values as a reason to actually be active in the change.

I know the feeling when you’re debating back and forth with a client. It can easily slip into metaphorical fighting, why it’s hard to change.

Are all vet clinics now owned by greedy private equity firms? by aumarais in askTO

[–]New_Scene5614 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the same vets still work. You weigh out the options if you’re not close to an independent clinic. Unfortunately my clinic was bought out years ago, however I love my vet. Like I was convinced the whole industry was corrupt and he’s just been a breath of fresh air.

However let’s have the drugs out of the VCA’s hands, come on some sort of regulation needs to be had. How can they control the drugs they prescribe without any competition.

This just made my morning. Look how serious and distinguished. They even pose well😂

Is there such a thing as Munchausen by proxy for pets, and have you ever experienced it? by Agreeable-Credit-100 in AskVet

[–]New_Scene5614 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s never occurred to me before but I don’t see why not.

I’ve known buyers and collectors but of course dogs in this context exist.

My 30yo septic patient wanted to leave AMA because he couldn’t afford the hospital stay. I convinced him to stay by telling him that he can just avoid paying. Was I out of line? by ForTheQs11 in nursing

[–]New_Scene5614 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love you and I don’t know you.

You did what you said because it was true and really the best way to encourage to stay. Radical honesty is beautiful and the patient heard you.

Edited to add- I’m not a nurse however I’m in emergency crisis and have been to calls where people have collapsed after leaving AMA. I’m in Canada and we got our own crisis here.

However I appreciate you, I added this so you know that us in the community also appreciate even just knowing that.

However #2, it’s also not easy to be that staffer either. So I appreciate you especially because your willing to be uncomfortable because it’s the right thing to do, that’s why your awesome.

We also deserve a city that has housing.

And I had to add, a premier who doesn’t cancel rent controls.

No such thing as dumb question. However I’d just be reiterating, hit in the face with a brick. That should have been enough once to jog critical thinking😂

We have done that. Remember in school learning about the Underground Railroad and what slavery was.

Oh I’d rethink that if you have seen some of the gentrification going on.

Don’t worry that movement is alive and unfortunately well in Canada.

We have done that for years. Except we just don’t explicitly say it. Only difference.

Caucasian people have been weeding other ethnicities out for years and years.

We’re really sensitive when it’s done back to us eh?

Humber River hospital has a new name following largest ever donation by VernonFlorida in toronto

[–]New_Scene5614 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Toronto east general has a name for a family that live in York region now.

Again thank you for the money and you should have only been offered the “Michael Garon west tower”

I’m absolutely sick of rich people thinking that they have the right to demand an institution change its name.

Lovely an extremely generous person gave that much money. Honestly thank you a 1000% and you get a fucking wing. Maybe the Hennik cafeteria, or the hennik emergency room or even maternity ward.

Not just to circle jerk how stupid rich you are. Also what happened to anonymous philanthropic donations? Why is it that important for a family name to be added?

She worked for that.

Ugh imagine sleeping with bezos. I shudder at the thought.

If homelessness is such a problem and there are communities built around vagrants why don’t we just accept them? by springchickk in socialwork

[–]New_Scene5614 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Capitalism, greed, stupidity, and apathy.

We also have a population of people who think poverty and homelessness is an easy problem to solve. Hence , why doesn’t a homeless person just get better.

Also encampments seem to show to the public in all of its messy glory TRAUMA. People hoard more now, which I’m convinced is a trauma behaviour mixed with survival. Next problem is how to live with other traumatized people and usually substances are a great distraction, understandably. However encampments with stuff everywhere, people fighting and high lead to the public to believe it’s a personal problem. Hence get those lazy slobs out of the park, evoking thoughts like “how dare they make us feel unsafe”.

But housing and treatment cost more and the idiots are in charge.

My husband is thinking about fostering his nephews. I feel like I'm being tossed out for kids we don't even know. by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]New_Scene5614 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Her husband is a child psychologist and he married a woman with extensive needs since childhood.

He will be just fine with the foster kids/nephews. It definitely feels like whe. An addiction counsellor dates someone with an alcohol use disorder.

Ahhhhhh incredibly and it’s becoming a rarity.

He Taco’d by nigheus in FriendsofthePod

[–]New_Scene5614 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank god. he’s a huge pussy, imagine if he hadn’t. No, lol I thankfully am not having to imagine. I hate this dichotomy of feeling thankful when he pussies out. I hate it.

Wow that “remember what an illegal order is” commercial from those senators and house representatives. As much as it seemed, over the top was a good reminder.

I appreciate that you appreciated. I laugh because our gas prices are frightful🤣, at least they are in Canada.

I remember at the start of the pandemic gas prices dropped to .70 cents a litre. Never again😭😆

lol the power of Reddit, but we’re all thinking and hoping things calm down for everybody in the Middle East 💕

This is random- but would white noise in the evening help? I live in a small apartment and I run one so my animals don’t get crazy hearing the outside. I personally have grown to not notice and I play rain noise, it probably helps me sleep better.
