IV Therapist: A Case Study

IV therapist feels that talking with comatose patients improves the overall quality of care. She treated the patient in the same way as other patients. She believes in the fact that communication is the means to develop a relationship with a patient. She knows that comatose patients can hear her, but they appear to be unconscious. She didn’t change her attitude even after the chief resident’s sarcastic comments. She continued to talk to him in Russian language.

Chief resident thinks that patient in the intensive care unit has no control over themselves and they depend on others. He forgot that IV therapist is dealing with a human being who needs respect and care, the only way to show that is through effective communication.
