you cant have everything,no matter what they say

OK, so when you go into the hospital pretty much you are told you can have what you want,when you want it, how you want it. wrong, its not a hotel. and you aren't in a spa. reality is, we do have cable television. probably not gonna get all the channels you might get at home. so don't complain to me you are missing one of your shows. i cant do anything about that. I'm a health care professional. ok i deal with health care issues. your complains should be addressed to the CEO of the hospital. these are the idiots telling us the staff what to wear how, to wear our name badges and so forth. staff doesn't set the rules. but we get the brunt of the complaints. when i have a really sick person down the hall the last thing i want to hear is that you are missing the latest episode of whatever. i don't care. I'm worried about my patient. not that you aren't important. its just i have other things on my mind. so direct the complaint to the CEO. these are the people making the rules. i have nothing, believe me nothing to do with how things run on the floor.
second, when you know you are coming into the hospital please don't think we are a Starbucks or a MacDonald's. truth is, no coffee and no fries. if i really like you and you are nice, i might go the extra mile and try to find you a coffee or treat. its gonna be really hard though. we have virtually nothing on the unit to snack on. so if you know you are coming in please stop at a fast food or bring your own. no salads at 3 in the morning. sorry. the best very best i can do is give you a premade sandwich. i wouldn't though. stop somewhere and eat or have someone bring you something. i will never tell someone "you shouldn't be eating that", unless you come in with a bowel obstruction and have a chance of puking it up all over the place. what you eat is none of my business. this goes back to having what you want when you want it. its just not reality. no Starbucks or anything good to eat. i love the patients that come in with abdominal pain and the first thing they say when hitting the room is," I'm hungry". right then and there i wont take you seriously. if you are really sick and in pain that's the last thing any normal person wants to do is eat. first sign of going downhill is loss of appetite. look it up.same thing with "I'm nauseated" do you have anything to eat. if you are nauseated dummy who wants to eat. those two things don't go together. just saying and just the truth.
