The RN
The RN calmly responds, “I apologize for the delay in responding to your call light. I understand that it can be very frustrating when you don’t get the immediate attention you need. Let me help you with your lunch tray and then I can look into why there was a delay in responding to your call light.” The RN helps the patient with his meal before addressing other issues. The RN acknowledges the patient’s frustration and listens carefully to their concerns. They explain what happened and provide options for rectifying the situation, if necessary. Through this process, they aim to build trust between them and the patient so that future interactions are more positive. Ultimately, this is how good relationships are built between healthcare providers and patients – by listening respectfully, validating their feelings, and providing solutions whenever possible.
