There is loss and disappointment but also beauty and joy. Understanding that a parent may be overwhelmed with responsibilities such as other children, a spouse, a job, running a household, doctor/therapy appointments, and financial crises will help foster a bond. As a provider, you only have limited contact with this patient. A parent has that responsibility and stress 24 hours a day. Having a child who may have abberant behaviors and/or look different from other children can result in parents feeling isolated from other “typical” families.
Does the patient have a roommate, someone he or she is close to? What are the “family” dynamics of the residence? How does the patient fit in with/get along with his or her housemates and staff? Another aspect of patients’ personal situations you may wish to delve into is about hobbies or things he/she like to do. What is their typical day like? What kinds of activities do he/she enjoy? Many practitioners use patients’ interests to foster a bond, whether it is a favorite sport, hobby, television show, or other interest.
