[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would you work in elder care and not want to do whatever you could to ensure they are comfortable and calm? Just get a job at a hotel or something.[/quote]

Exactly. The employee lacks even a basic sense of empathy towards her clients. [/quote]

+1  After her boss pointed out that her hair changes was upsetting to her patients, [i]the woman continued to do it[/i].  That shows malice imo.  How hard would it be to just wear the same hairstyle each day?[/quote]

You have no idea about caring from AA hair. It can be very challenging to replicate the same hairstyle every day without braids or a sew in. And those cause traction alopecia. [/quote]

??? I don't?  That's surprising.  I guess I don't see my blackness when I look in the mirror.  I wonder what color that is?  Perhaps you can help and tell me, oh patronizing one.

Another poster said she thought the employee was being malicious.  I agree.  I don't change my hair style every day, neither do any of my black friends.  I think someone is playing a game with the race card and it isn't the facility.  After her manager said something to her, the fact that she refused to comply says a lot to me about her character.  She should not be retained at that facility.

IMO the facility should institute a policy of consistency for hairstyles and hair colors as well as general uniforms and attire.

My grandfather, who lives with us here at home, has dementia and my mom is a stickler about us keeping the household and everything in it very structured and orderly.  It makes a big difference in Pop Pop's life when we keep to a schedule and when we are consistent in our days.  When he is with us for meals, we all wear name tags because it helps him.  He is a wonderful man and dementia is a horrible disease.[/quote]
