etiquette. In all of our dealings with a facility’s staff (from Administration to

nursing staff to housekeeping) we must maintain a courteous, professional

and ethical demeanor. However, our courtesy cannot end there. We must

workload of staff and facilitate them in providing quality care to their

residents. Ultimately it is the residents that we serve.

certain kind of realization. They often have special needs, are limited in

their physical and mental abilities, and can even be obnoxious. Still we

must treat them with courteous, professional patience. We must also

understand that we are not nursing staff and therefore not qualified to fulfill

some requests asked by residents. At this point we must let the resident

know this and then notify staff.

of our working environment. Many residents are curious about our tools

and equipment. Some residents with mental handicaps may be a danger

to themselves or others should they climb a ladder, grab a tool, etc. We

must be constantly aware of our surroundings while in their home. Many

common sense things are also written into State and Federal regulations

such as not leaving carts and ladders unattended, leaving mechanical room
