Response to Any Advice

 

Well I did home health and won't ever do it again. When I was beginning to do home health I thought I would be seeing older people who was trying to stay in there homes instead of going into a nursing home- Boy was I wrong- You see all the normal patients on home health was already taken by the aids that had been there the longest- so being the new one I was sent to the least desirables homes- which included being sent to sexual offenders homes which I wasn't told about (their wife or girlfriend was the patient). Because of the Hippa laws they couldn't tell me about their spouses previous records or that their husband or boyfriend was on the sexual offenders list. I learn that the hard way - one day while I was doing housework the police showed up and arrested her boyfriend or husband or whatever he was to her- and sieze their computers and while there found pot plants and I got taken in too for questions. I never saw the pot plants while I was there-
Anyhow I live in a small community low crime and never expected all that. I will work in a nursing home or hosiptal.
Good Luck
