I'm completely over today's work I feel so alienated where I support my client. Went around to Bingo in another area today @ the end of it 1 of the other residents there signalled me over had dealings with this resident once before asked me my name which is on a printed visitor sticker when I arrived he read my name asking what it was but running his finger along my name which is on the sticker applied to my left breast that's where I usually place it but after today I'll put it on my shoulder didn't like what happened 1 bit I took his hand and gently moved it away and held onto it so he couldn't do it again. I saw my job co ordinator last week not much support there did put in a job application that's about all. All they want is their grant from the government. I feel everything I do or say is a big effort to do, slowly going into a darkness hole yet every day is a new day. Tommorrow there is a medication workshop with my company god only knows what she will bring up besides issues with medication administered.
Sounds like you are surrounded by dodgy and creepy people. What you are describing is completely uncalled for and is sexual harassment. What a creep. Please remove yourself from weirdos and stay away.

Re: tommorrow
I did today as soon as he recognised me and said something along the lines of here's my lovely lady I think my feet ran faster than my body did and my client because they're in a retirement village they think they can get away with it I wanted to speak to my supervisor about it today medication workshop she was to busy cuddling 1 of the others employee baby I'd lean towards not getting much support there my ears were still burning glad to get away from the BS. On the plus side I have all of you on the forum to natter onto & you give great advice. Time for an shower then I'm off to bed, forgot to take my meds till 2am this morning that's not good

Re: tommorrow
Plus also I support a client with dementia in a locked ward in a retirement home, when the activities are on elsewhere in the home I've gotta take her so there's a lot of closed areas there and he does attend where my client visits as well but I'm avoiding him now
