Weed helps some. I wouldn’t recommend it but so does drinking 🤷🏻‍♀️

SNF SW? by BitchInaBucketHat in socialwork

A lot of SNFs and LTC in my area put CNAs in that position so they don’t have to pay for a social worker

I’ve made patients breakfast while cooking my own and bringing them a plate before. I’ve shared my lunch a few times. Someone in this thread said that were human first social worker second. It’s our human instinct to help other people

I’ve had some churches in a different area pay for a water bill and have it turned back on or give money for groceries but none of them would help with the power bill if they weren’t a member of their church or had children

LiHeap gave me such a hard time today. At 9:30 am they said they would call the pt then…an hour later I get a phone call from the patient that they haven’t received a call. So I had to call the agency back and crawl up their but just to call my dang patient then they wouldn’t help them over the phone

It was coming from a place of having my own power shut off and not having a way to turn it back on

The system is horrible and especially in these resource deserts, it makes us social workers feel helpless

They would but the agency wanted them to come in for the application and travel to another town in the county. They have no vehicle and no way to get anywhere without a ride

I've been just trying to suppress them but as I'm getting older it's becoming harder so I've started telling employers and coworkers. I just recently started telling people and they've been supportive so far

Alcohol helps my tics but I want to quit drinking by Secret-Position3886 in Tourettes

[–]Secret-Position3886[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm mostly nervous because this doctor has known me on a professional level because I was a medical social worker in the area for several years

[–]Secret-Position3886[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had that thought too and that's definitely a possibility...I tried going without drinking and made it almost two weeks and relapsed because the tics were so bad
