During my work experience in a nursing home, I was responsible for bathing more than 300 elderly people. This experience gave me a deep sense of embarrassment, illness and aging.
Every morning, I push a trolley full of toiletries through the corridors of the nursing home. The old people were in wheelchairs or lying in bed, and they were looking forward to my arrival. However, every time I took a shower, I felt extremely embarrassed.
"Xiao Li, I can't move the lower half of my body, you can help me wash it." An old man lay on the bed and said to me helplessly. I had to bite the bullet and carefully wipe his body.
In the process of bathing the elderly, I saw the cruelty of disease. Some of them have high blood pressure, some have diabetes, and some have Alzheimer's disease. The disease has made them lose their ability to take care of themselves, and they are unable to take care of themselves.
"Auntie, have you taken your high blood pressure medicine?" I asked with concern while bathing an old man. She nodded, smiled and said, "Eat, thank you, Xiao Li." ”
In addition to disease, aging is also an unavoidable reality for the elderly. They have loose skin, gray hair, and sluggish movements. Every time they take a bath, they have to come to terms with the fact that they are gradually aging.
"Xiao Li, I was a beautiful woman when I was young," an old man said to me with a smile in the bath, "and now that I'm old, everything has changed." ”
Despite the embarrassment, illness and aging of the old people, I didn't give up. I do my best to make them feel comfortable and dignified, and warm their hearts with smiles and love.
"Xiao Li, you are such a good boy," an old man said to me gratefully after taking a bath, "Thank you for taking care of us old people." ”
I also learned a lot from this experience. I learned to respect and understand the elderly, and learned how to communicate and communicate with them. I have learned that aging and illness are an unavoidable part of life, and we should face them with peace.
Working in a nursing home made me feel embarrassment, illness and aging. These experiences have made me cherish my health and youth more, and have also made me pay more attention to and respect the elderly.
"Xiao Li, I felt very warm when you bathed me today," an old man said to me as he said goodbye, "thank you." ”
I smiled and replied, "You're welcome, uncle." This is what I should do. ”
The day I left the nursing home, my heart was filled with emotion. I understand that this experience will forever remain in my memory and become a precious part of my life.
After bathing more than 300 elderly people, I felt embarrassment, illness and aging. These experiences have made me grow a lot, and they have also made me cherish and respect the elderly more. They are the precious wealth of our society, and we should care for them with our hearts, so that they can feel warmth and dignity in their old age.
