Loading ...Maya, then you should do fine. Yes tropical or humid weather can cause skin issues. I was lucky with that but plenty are not. Dry hot weather can have it’s issues too. Good you found a quick cure all. Watch out as a mouth rinse though it can stain the teeth.
You should be very happy once surgery is over and your back on your feet. PT should know what to do but better your understanding what their saying but you already do.
I remember when I started out as a nursing assistant as a teen learning everything from the ground floor up which I think nurses should do they don’t come in thinking it’s a cocktail party or understanding their job for many reasons and knowing when to help that may not occur to them not pull them from one thing to another before their finished. Also know what’s reasonable and not on both sides where another isn’t doing their job.
Anyways as a teen I asked this one patient I was helping into a chair I didn’t have any info on and asked her if she could stand to pivot her into a wheel chair. She weighed a little over 300 lbs. She said yes she can stand. So I helped her up and learned she couldn’t stand and grabbed her so she wouldn’t fall and didn’t know yet it’s okay to put them on the ground instead of if hurting yourself that’s not falling. So I held on and trying to take a couple of steps and got her into the chair without her falling. I couldn’t talk for a week after but I got her in that chair and learned something. Post op people who could normally stand think they can buy their knees can buckle or get dizzy so go BP so they should never be alone at first.
You know that have these chairs that lower to the ground now with a remote that lifts them up to the height of a chair or bed now. So if something should happen and they can’t get back up instead of calling the lift and assist program at the fire department and waiting if not a emergency. That can keep people in their home longer. Many wives can’t lift their husbands off the ground but could happen to them too.
