I don't know that they meant to hurt you or that they even think of you that way. They are probably speaking from their own experiences. Not all nursing homes are the same and some do have employees that should not be there. I am sure you do all you can for the nursing home that you work for and I am also sure you are great at what you do. I just wish that there were more like you out there. The sad fact is that abuse of the elderly go on in a lot of nursing homes. I know that in my hometown there is a nursing home that has a VERY bad reputation. It is well known that you try to avoid that home at all cost. I guess once you have had a bad experience at one it kinda clouds the idea that nursing homes are great places. Doesn't mean they don't exsist tho. {{HUGS}}
