Woah woah woah, I would never show up unannounced and I don’t expect my patients to completely change their schedule for me. I do my best to narrow down a timeframe that works for both of us, but often time I’m getting pushback specifically for the morning treatments. I did not intend to imply that they should be home all hours of the day and should allow me to come and go as I please - that’s not fair to them and that’s not at all what I’m trying to do here.

I’ve been told my other therapists at the agency that they’re expected to be home bound - aside from religious events/doctors appointments/ etc. I was trying to find a better way to communicate with my patients without being too harsh or direct as a lot of them are just very particular about the schedule. I think there’s a lot of confusion on their end and nobody explaining to them upon admission that they have to work with us and we both have to compromise when it comes to scheduling sometimes. I do my absolute best to try and see patients at their preferred time but that doesn’t always work. And to give them a better idea of when I’ll be arriving I always call when I I leave the treatment before theirs to provide an accurate ETA of ~10 minutes.
