the Underserved Population;
The
SECRET
---The
secret to having a hospital patient be happy and satisfied is to
simply ask him what he wants and give it to him. (You may have to massage this dynamic a bit to get the desired response.) The patient may have NOT had his preferences cared about for a long time. He may be out of practice with the very basic art of being civil. Or, it is possible that this was never his strong suit. Have NO FEAR...he will eventually respond in an appropriate manner if you are sensitive to his situation.
---That
will usually illicit a smile and a thank you. He will then be set up for a
friendship if one cares to pursue it. Simple supply and demand.
Probably the same thing that works on you and your whole family. I
majored in economics...I should have gotten to this much sooner.
1] Ask him/her what he/she wants and supply it. If this is done you will receive a smile at the very least.
2]
Listen to what he/she has to say AND hear what he/she is really
saying
3]
Take him/her seriously
---If
these steps are followed, I guarantee that will see changes in your
relationships. The more your heart buys into this will be the greater
the rewards you reap from doing it. Be Well.
