I work in behavioral health and experience all types of different patients. But even beyond mental health wise know it’s almost never a real problem with you personally. Some patients can just have biases “just because” or not like you because you could fit a description of someone they didn’t like. Don’t ever take it to heart unless they specifically give you a reason why they have a grievance against you. I was called the devil simply because I had blue eyes. You’ll never be able to read their mind but just take it with a grain of salt. If it affects your ability to follow through with patient care then I would approach them, with respect and not accusatory, and ask them if they have a problem with you and how to fix it. Carry yourself with professionalism and respect, some people have way more going on than you’d know so it’s a majority of the time not a personal problem.
My daughter did and I told her to pray that God would soften there heart towards you.
Love them harder.
Just be kind anyway and they will see. They could be afraid of the other people but you just kill them with kindness ❤️
Not everyone will everyone. Different personality, different age they were brought up in. They can be judge mental towards others and that does not make it right. Always do your best, if it continues tell your supervisor and ask if you can work in a different area.

Yes, I’ve had that experience. I stayed professional, didn’t take it personally, and tried to understand their frustration. Sometimes, addressing concerns directly can help. If i was in your place and this continues, I would inform a supervisor to ensure everything’s handled appropriately.
I work in an outpatient office and there was a nurse who I felt didn't like me - even the doctor notice how she treated me. I just tried to kill her with respect and kindness. She passed away from alcoholism 2 years ago. Sad we never got to reconcile.
Compliment them. I love your hair. You have a beautiful smile. I enjoy helping. Find positive things to say about them.
It's when caring is your passion. Everyday, I have to forced to live in different emotions. Was abused in various ways. Even when you constantly asked them to treat you right, they will throw a fit as if you never exist. I always choose to be kind! even when they don't deserve it. And regardless of the experience, I still choose to offer the best care and compassion to what I do. It's them, not us.
