I don’t miss that shit ... at .. all.
Just like Motors say it’s not if you crash but when K9 says if you play with dogs you’re gonna get bit...
Just a dog chauffeur that used to hold the dumb end of the leash.
Man. I really felt a sense of mission/purpose when I worked psych, but I do not miss this stuff. When I got my counseling degree, I picked schools to specialize in b/c I knew that, at least in the short term, I have no desire to go back to a clinical setting.
I dont blame you. To much behaviour stuff that im getting burnt out on.
I would like to find an at home job. Like insurance claims or chart audits so i can build a tree house and stay away from people.
As far as nursing jobs that I've got the utmost respect for, inpatient psych is right up at the top.
Stay safe. And healthy. [emoji106]

That’s pretty rough. Back in 93 Psychologist Bill Damueller offered me a job at the Chester mental health faculty in Illinois. It sounded great until we got into the issue of spitting and biting. I just couldn’t get past it.
Back when getting bit containing folk was a potential part of my work day, I kept a small bottle of bleach to throw on the wound as soon as circumstance allowed, to reduce possible transfer of Hep and HIV.
Doctor recommended. Only had to do it twice. Glad it was there when I needed it.
Also, consider an off-the-record chat with the client's onsite shrink or someone in nursing to see if they're aware of any potential health risks specific to the biter. Technically a HIPPA violation, but if you and someone with access to health records are simpatico, they'll understand and discretely assist.
Hain’t we got all the fools in town on our side? And ain’t that a big enough majority in any town?
