I’ve gotten misunderstood in the hospital once it was really bad because I’m autistic I was screaming out for the nurse she wouldn’t come in all I needed her to do or get one of her colleagues to do was just sit with me for a minute so I can calm down and go to sleep because pain medication can only do so much for me being autistic being in the hospital is such a gamble

Here in the Philippines, usually, people dont give nurses a dignity. They treat them as nannies, maid, and secondclass citizens. They say "i can buy you" and other derogatory terms. I think they need help here.

And also, 1 nurse handles 20+ patients.

There is always patients rights. The question is, is there any equal rights for the staff esp for those who are combative, abusive and rude patients and to its relatives
