Share an example where a patient resisted care you were providing? How did you handle that patient?

Answer:

Last year I was assigned an old patient who had multiple medical conditions. From day one, he refused to be fed. No matter what I cooked or offered him, he did not accept. The family was quite worried about the issue. I probed the family about the patient's meal preferences and cooked the meal daily and left it by his chair without offering feeding assistance. He tried to eat it sometimes but could not due to paralysis. It took me 3 days to build rapport with the old man, but once I did he was a really easy patient to handle.
