My son big "E"

I learned a few more things about my son today and his oral hygiene. Since moving out his oral care has not been on the fore front of his mind. The path that he is on he will have to have his tissues excised to get them to heal. Maybe this experience will help him to be more consciencious about taking care of himself. He is sensitive to pain in his mouth anyway so our discussion in class about not being over bearing but getting your point across I had the opportunity to put into practice. Being sensitive to the patient's feelings but getting instructions across is an delicate approach. I would like to focus on being more direct in my instruction but then again supportive with my willingness to be of assistance.
