Aged Care Nursing does not hold the same esteem as Nurses working in acute hospital settings. Some moments I feel the same, working initially at the Aged Care Facility (ACF) was not my first plan but fate turned me to its direction and I cannot be happier and feel blessed to be given the chance to experience this noble and very caring aspect of Nursing. My perspective turned 360 degrees around and I learned so much of myself wile working in the ACF. I never knew I could be patient, but indeed, my patience was stretched farther that what I have expected.
I admit it's not always a bed of roses, arguments and stress fill the day if not most of it but that's when you realize that these arguments and stress happen because you care and you wanted what's best not only for yourself or the staff but most because of your patients.
I cried many times, not only because I pity the residents but more on my own frustration to look after my elders. The ACF has opened my eyes to how lonely my parents had been when most of their seven children spread their wings and flew out of the nest. I appreciated them more than ever and despite having some issues with them, I know that I will always be there with them. And working in the ACF has both filled a big part of longing for my parents and appreciating all their hard wok and love they have bestowed their children unconditionally.
I now work at an Acute Hospital setting and I still get to look after the older population but the bond and rapport you build is nothing compared when you are given time to nurture and build a relationship not only with the patient but with their family and friends.
I found this video on the internet and just had a big impact on the realities of aging. Enjoy the video.

CLUTTERED MINDS
Beautiful! I wish I could really do and practice this in my everyday life!!
How many of You are holding onto relationships that DO NOT SERVE YOUR HIGHEST GOOD?
How many of You are in Relationships that DRAIN Your Energy?
How many of You Lack the strength or are too Fearful to Speak Your Truth and Implement Healthy Strong Boundaries into Your Life and Relationships??
Imagine living a Life where Your Relationships fill You with Love, Energy and Excitement. Where the people in Your Life Lift You Up and Support you in Achieving Your Dreams and Desires! Where the people align with the core of your being and they actually GET YOU!!!
When you LET GO of Relationships that do not serve your highest Good you Clear the Space for Higher Vibrational People, Experiences and Relationships to FLOW in to Your Life!
When You Speak Your Hearts Truth You Step into Your Authentic Power!
When You Speak Your Hearts Truth it Opens Your Throat Chakra which connects to your Heart Chakra. And when you do this and Your Heart Opens more and more, the Energy Flow increases into Your Next Chakra Your Solar Plexus, the seat of your Personal Power.
If You Choose to Not Speak Your truth Your Chakras will remain at a Low Vibration and this is where you begin to manifest Symptoms of Sickness in your Body and challenges in Your Life!
If you Desire a Life of Flow, Ease n Grace, then OPENING Your Chakras is a Fundamental Step in the Direction of Your Dreams!
This is Why with all of my clients I teach them How to Open their Chakras and keep them Flowing and Balanced, to Speak their Truth and Smooth Their Words with Love and Peace, Stepping Continuously Into their Personal Power Living their Dreams!
