Not that my dad was a hard patient because he wasn't but I loved him so it would of not mattered. I just love what I do I think of my Patients as part of my family and treat them like they are and the way I would treat my parent and the way I would won't to be treated if it was me. I think it is the way that everyone should think of it that way but i know a lot of them don't. I am a hard worker and I am a very organized person and get done what I am expected to get done. And I am willing to help others out when needed we are suppose to be a team so I act like one.
