I used to be a nurse and hospitals slowly starting to be perceived as HOTELS by people is a gigantic annoyance.
Last years i was hospitalisé 6 times and this years i was in the hospital from janiary31 to february 28 so i see à lot of stuff i live in Canada so here its free so à lot of People came for stupide stuff they complain to wait 12 hours at the emergency but go Just bécause they Hurt they wrist !!some give the nurse sh*t Just because théir food came 10mins late or because its à little cold !
Me the nurse was always telling me dont worrys you can push the button for help because i Never push it i was waiting somebody else was pushing it in the same room has me !! Sorry for the fault my phone is french like me lol so autocorector do wtv hé want haha
It blows my mind that people do that. Must have insurance. I couldn’t imagine spending $1,000+ for an ER visit just to sleep there and treat people like shut.
I guess with homeless people I can kinda get it, but just out right entitled people that drives me nuts.
As a former aide .... "WHERE'S MY TURKEY SANDWICH!!!!!! THIS PLACE IS BULLLSHHIIT!!!"
🥴🤌♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ Just some PTSD for ya today lol.. I worked on MEDSURG so I definitely know the Hotel Hospital
@@kaii6216 lol I was also on a MedSurg floor.
I'm a retired nurse and I just thank the Lord I'm not working any more. Steven is a bad example, but he's not the only example.
How can someone that depends on others to even live, treat everyone like dukey? The audacity.
Dukey! Lol I've never heard it spelled that way. I've only ever seen dookie.
@@BeeTeePee dookie? Is that like a brookie? Jk
@@ShrexyGuy lool more like an inedible snickers
Watch out for that dewcki
@@MessiahJesus *Dew-kee
As a nurse, just FYI, the reason it often takes us a long time to respond to call bells is because we are dangerously understaffed and have to treat people based on priority. If theres a patient showing signs of heart failure or stroke and other emergent things they are first, then theres the people who need specific nurse/doctor procedures attended to, and a patient screaming to turn off a light is right at the bottom. and we will still try to come over with a smile and our utmost care before we are called back to the next emergency 😓
Id end up behind bars for throttling a patient lmao
I also cant trust a call light of a pt who screams at me every time I answer to it lol . If you are pressing the call light because you need actual help I will be there as fast as I possibly can , but if you're pressing it because lunch is five seconds late , you best know I am caring for my other patients first lol
I’m sorry you guys have to deal with this! Respect and kindness should always be shown, ESPECIALLY to those who help save our lives. Thanks for all that you do ❤
The real ones know this and wait patiently 💕
I have a question; when patients call in are they also ranked depending on their situation/call? That is what I think happens. Yet I don't want to assume. (This is my husband's account)
I'm SO HAPPY to see a Doctor stand up for his nurses. Nurses are seriously underrated, overworked and underpaid for what they do! anytime I've gone to the hospital (Canada, mind you) they've always been so sweet, informative and kind.
Hell yeah, I totally agree. Dr. Now is awesome! We need more doctors like him.
not all nurses are like that. plenty are abusive especially towards the disabled and elderly.
I want to the mental health ward in a hospital for like two weeks. Some of the nurses were the worst but there were some that were so genuinely amazing and made me feel so cared for and validated. One sat me through a panic attack and another was just so motherly and it melted my heart. With any profession I think some are great some some arnt so much. But honestly I love and respect all the nurses out there cause it can't be an easy job
I'm sure they're not underpaid of all things
@@bob-nm3tj" i'm sure" do your search first
If you've ever been in the hospital before and have tried to call the nurse, but they take forever to get there, this guy is the reason. There's usually a handful of nurses for each floor/unit and tons of patients. When you keep demanding their time and bugging them with phone calls, it keeps them from their duties with other patients. The entitlement is strong with this one.
Just going by your comment I'm gonna jump the gun and sayyou haven't been to a hospital or ED since before covid. We are drastically understaffed and we would love a handful nurses per floor. That doesn't always happen and usually isn't the case. I've worked where there was a max of 3 nurses per floor and lemme tell you, it's honestly the closest thing to hell I can imagine. I love my job but even one call out can ruin a 12 hour shift. /end rant. Sorry.
@@xGhouI you're correct. The last time I spent significant time in a hospital was pre-covid. My overall point here was that needy patients like this are the reason why it feels like it takes forever to get anyone to answer your calls. I think it was absolutely justified to kick him out and tell him not to come back.
@@firehawk2324 on the subject of pt like that guy, did you know they just recently had to put signs up that it's a crime to assault the medical staff? How fcked is that
@@xGhouI so, they have to point out common sense? Sad.
@@firehawk2324 yup. Apparently enough of us got assaulted and had to call out due to injury that they had to put signs up
That poor nurse (the one who had to clean up the urine) sounded like she was just about ready to cry. Honestly, why be rude to the people who were LITERALLY able to kill you and make it look like an accident?
You saying this shit right here is why nobody trusts nurses. Cut it out. Most nurses don't even know how to fake their own medical certificates, let alone get away with a perfect murder.
Lol, good point?
Right like she could pull the plug and say she tripped on it because he was demanding so much medicine 😂
Hearing that nurse on the verge of tears hurt me so much. That guy doesn't deserve the help he got
Because that's the long-shot hope. He has no access to the means to do it. So he needs to motivate someone to hate him enough to do it for him.
this dude would straight up be a serial killer if he could actually get out of bed.
As someone who works in the healthcare industry, Ken portrays exactly what we're thinking when patients are like this.
What are the worst kind of patience in your opinion?
@@How_To_Drive_a_TARDIS Ppl like him, ppl who think the world rebolves around them & complain that help doesn't show up in a millisecond cus they don't stop to think that there's other ppl that are worse off than them & staff might be tending to them first cus their situation is one critical.
“I gotta wait on everything” THATS BECAUSE YOU ATE YOURSELF INTO IMMOBILITY-
Hell, it ain't even that. The nurses have other patients to tend to as well and I doubt he was the highest priority there.
I'm reading that in my paternal grandfather's really thick Irish accent and it's just KILLING me.
Love a My 600lb Life reaction. This guy was beyond help, rude and abusive towards Dr Now’s staff. No one deserves that.
- Thank goodness for Dr Now for standing up for his staff. Good man.
When he knew he was on camera. Imagine what this douche is like at home
He is slimmer
@@assasin19991999 he's become a toothless crackhead !
@@assasin19991999 shouldn’t you be in cryosleep
He was rude to Dr Phil too.
Steven: I can’t believe this is happening to me.
It’s not happening to you bud, it’s happening because of you.
That nurse aounded so close to tears....i hope she finds happiness in whatever shes doing now
Nurses are so underrated it’s insane! People like Steven treat them like shit but they deserve so much more respect!
And so are us CNAs since we have constant contact with the patients/ residents.
That one nurse sounded like she was about to cry..
The best way to respect the nurses is by staying away, lower the workload by living healthy.
I don’t want more respect I want more money! The amount of work is not paid enough. Heck, I’d argue doctors aren’t paid enough. All positions in healthcare put in an absurd amount of training and work.
@@sarahmccullum2880 cnas are my best friends fr fr. Yall make my shifts somewhat manageable. When you’re understaffed I’m not having a good day.
Nurses saved my life when I had a baby and to see them treated so poorly really angers me. Nurses deserve so much more.
Same here. Even though I have been at my worst because I'm literally in the hospital, I could never imagine treating another human being like that .
Same here the nurses who helped my have my son and kept me from having unnecessary surgery are a blessing. The staff did not deserve it at all
My sister in law is a nurse, and I have nothing but the highest respect for her and other nurses
Agreed, nurses and teachers both.
Nurses, teacher and caretaker are the foundation of socity and should be treated as such
This guy is needy AF. All I wanted in the hospital was to be left alone so I could sleep.
It’s hard to imagine treating healthcare workers like this, especially in his condition when he’s completely dependent on them. I am full of “thank you”, “sorry to bother”, and “I appreciate your help so much” everytime I’ve ever needed medical care. So gross to treat them the way he does
Steven is a mess but he made Dr. Now say some epic stuff. "Why you do weird things?" "Have you ever heard of soap and water? I have people back there puking from the smell." "What in the world is wrong with you?"
It needed to be said 💯
The dr isn’t so great himself he’s too old and needs to retire. Bedside manner is important regardless if the patient is a jerk. My grandma was head nurse and she had tons of rude patients but she….had good bedside manner. That’s a requirement for anyone working in the medical field if you’re dealing with patients.
@@nicolette1598 If you're being respectful & trying, yes. If you're being harmful & manipulative, no.
@@FurbyParade226 you don’t get it. A doctors job is to lose the emotion, insecurity and do their job. This is why you aren’t a doctor honey you mentally aren’t equipped to do that which is why you don’t comprehend why it’s an issue. For example I have very expensive health insurance blue cross blue shield…these doctors especially the ones who specialize in certain things like this guy does are paid millions……so someone has expensive insurance and is rude well there’s two options… ignore them or do your job. He is a weak human if he can’t brush off what a pathetic man who can barely move, who is also being humiliated on tv says. You appear to be someone who values their petty opinions and feelings too much.
Big difference between nurses and doctors
Steven has been on multiple episodes of “My 600 lb Life” and he has not changed. He is a complete diva every time he’s on the show and every time Dr. Now kicks him out.
What’s insane is the first time Steven was on the show, he was with his brother. His brother did everything he was suppose to do, got the surgery, owns a hobby shop, and is living life away from his brother and father.
Good for the brother, he did great, getting away from them might be the best call he could have made
Good for the brother hope he continues to succeed
Excellent tactic. Sell yourself as a duo to get on the show then take all the steps and help you need to improve, then shut out your toxic family and live happily.
As a dayshift nurse in the hospital on a medsurg floor, thank you for recognizing how busy we are. 💜
Every shift we are understaffed. Pain medicine is set by the doctor and is given when the patient requests it (within the time frame the doctor set usually every 4 to 6 hours, definitely not available every 15 minutes) we could lose our licenses by giving pain meds without the patient requesting it every time. There are many times we have 6 patients at a time with some discharging and new patients coming in, many 12 hour shifts I do not even have the chance to pee let alone eat or drink.
When a patient keeps calling, we do our best to cluster care in order to provide care to every patient.
Its treatment from patients like him that nurses burnout and quit the industry. We also deal with being verbally and physically assaulted by patients and visitors. Once saw a fellow nurse who was pregnant get punched in the neck by a patient. No reprimand to the patient, coworker ended up being okay but that behavior should not be tolerated.
Good on Dr. Now for discharging him. Hospitals are meant to help people, and if someone is not compliant that room can be used for someone else in need who sincerely wants the help.
when i had back surgury there was a little pump and a button that I could hit to self-administer the painkiller. It was on a timer so you couldn't OD. I think I only hit the call nurse button about twice during my entire week I was at the hospital.
I’m chronically ill (vascular ehlers danlos syndrome, mcas, pots, high output ileostomy are my main issues) and have been hospitalized a bunch, the medsurg floor is always so so so busy . I learned a long time ago that you don’t want to be the one that the nurses are focused on bc that means you’re having an emergent issue, or some other complications. Stephen makes people like myself who suffer with debilitating pain like addicts. Thank you so much for what you do, I respect nurses so much and have only ever had a few “bad” nurses but the majority are amazing humans. You are an amazing human ❤
The father in this situation played a huge part in how his son turned out, and all he does is try to pawn off responsibility for him, because he can't discipline his own kid
He's not a kid anymore. The father should run.
As a home health nurse, I had 2 patients who were this size, but they lived alone and were the polar opposite of the guy!! They did take issue with a few nurses and requested me (even when I was sent to work a different area), so I saw them for years. If I was running late, they just told me “It’s ok… please just be careful!!” This guy and Tammy give people suffering from obesity a bad name.
That leg condition is pretty common for them. It’s called lymphedema and can cause stasis ulcers like he had on his ankle.
U are so far the only nurse who hasn’t said anything disturbing on these comments. Thank you for not talking crap about your patients. You are clearly a good nurse and we need more nurses like you.
a lot of people become obese due to mental health struggles and p much eating their feelings. it makes sense that the majority are generally kind - and self-conscious
i'm glad you are such a good nurse
Thank you for speaking out about your patients, Nurse Joy 🙏
You sound like an absolute joy :)
Not discrediting anything you’re saying & thank you for being a nurse!!! Much love. But just wanted to give Tammy some credit here! She got the surgery and seems to be up and moving on social media. So happy she turned her attitude around.
I literally raged quit watching the episodes of him. He made me so mad. It did turn out he was addicted to his pain meds too.
Might sound cruel but at least addiction helps lose some of that way…..😞😞😞😫😫😫
@@marzthescum3113 When someone is addicted to meds, or really any substance, those take priority over things like food, water, sleep, safety, etc.
The chemistry in your brain literally makes your body prioritize the meds/substance over the things you need to survive, so it makes you start to lose weight and become sick/gaunt/weak and pale because you aren't taking care of your basic physical needs. 😬
Addiction is gnarly, and people don't realize how it takes over everything in your life, and it becomes the only thing your body craves to survive even over food and water.
post partum, there was a huge air bubble in my IV and the machine started going crazy. I called a nurse and she left me mid-way to help another mom who's stitches busted open, and told me to call her if the air bubble got too close to my arm. lmao she eventually came back and stopped it. she told me the hospitals were so understaffed everyone had more patients than they could really bare. i cant imagine acting entitled in a care area. alot of those ppl work so damn hard
Were u watching it, and did you plan on pulling the iv if it got 2 close?
i pinched the line lmao i was too scared to pull it, because itd taken soo many tries of them sticking me to get a vein. i was crashing with clampsia and had taken 2 rounds of mag at this point, i could barely stand or take myself to pee@@clark2491
I didn't even know it was possible to get kicked out of a hospital 'til today. A real lesson to be learned
From working in the medical field, it’s extremely annoying to deal with patients that constantly press that button for no reason. Most of them are bored and lonely and use it as a way to have human interaction, but they fail to take into consideration all the other patients needs.
One of the reasons I was pretty unwilling to press the help button for stuff like a glass of water, when I had my appendicitis. Knew for a fact I wasn't suffering like other people there.
At the start of the pandemic I was hospitalized for a bacterial infection in my bowels. The only time I pressed the button is because I had a major panic attack because I was scared to be away from home and I have emetophobia and was so sick I kept throwing up (which made me panic even more).
The day I could leave, the doctor would do his final check-in with me, they gave me a time and I waited for more than 1.5 hours w/o pressing the button, because I WAS BETTER. And other people in there needed the help sooner than me, because I got to go home.
The way Steven only thinks about himself and disregards the feelings of other patients, nevermind the staff, is BEYOND me. Truly an occupation you do out of love. Not money or respect. Geez.
I’m pretty sure he does it because he enjoys the attention- positive or negative. Looking at his smug face as people struggle to move his ass is proof beyond.
Maye they need like a robot that can talk and hold conversations.
I had to use to call button since I couldn't walk at the time I was ignored by the nurses as they thought since I was in my early 20s at the time I was faking it I almost pissed myself waiting for my mom to get their in the morning so I could go she had to help me up to the bathroom. When a nurse did show up they were very irritated with having to help me, I was 22 year old woman at the time I truly don't want to take a piss in front of a nurse and I hated how they thought I just wanted attention it was a smack in the face on an already humiliating experience.
He doesn't need a doctor. He needs a drill sergeant to get his ass in gear. No one with sympathy can help this child in a mans body.
I worked in the healthcare field and it's sad to admit but there's no help for this guy even for a drill sergeant. If he isn't going to help himself and make others suffer and refuse to change, it's best just to leave him be and let him rot till he dies. No hope for him and no need to for this effort from everyone else.
In the body of an elephant seal.
I used to be a PDA (Patient Dinning Assistant) and you’re right Ken I used to be the only person on shift for a WHOLE hospital. Placing orders, printing tickets, PLUS handling new patients in the middle of passing out food. It’s just a real hassle sometimes and patience is appreciated.
The "fall precautions" sign looks like Gerard Butler just kicked the man down the stairs after yelling that this was Sparta.
its crazy how manipulative steven truly is. He knew that those nurses had to respond to his call button even if he's consistently pressing it because they could lose their jobs. Then how he was speaking to Dr. Now like he actually has remorse and wants to do better but right when he steps out and he thinks he's gone he presses his button again. I hope he loses all the weight so someone can give him the same treatment he believes he's so entitled to.
i think he died?
@@eggman5436 No he didn't. Lol.
@@eggman5436 He faked his death
@@flutterbyinthesky9282 wild
I'm almost 100% sure that this is the guy who got addicted to the pain meds, gained all the weight he lost after the surgery and ended up getting his family to get him Mrs and get high.
Steven is such a miserable human being. I feel for him to a certain extent. However, he's not tried to get better then takes it out on everyone around him.
Mental health is like this. Until he gets out of his victim mentality he will be stuck. It sucks but only he can save himself.
@@FayieElphis absolutely agree. Been there.
Better person than I. I don’t feel one bit for him at all, and that’s saying a lot.
Don't. He was so much worse than it shows. He would throw the urinals at staff and scream like a toddler if you tried to say anything he didn't like. If you didn't answer his call light, he would bombard the hospital and nurses station with phone calls from his cell phone. Constantly had mountains of food delivery showing up for him that he already paid for on an app.
@@hippybag ugh. I remember the pee. He made that poor nurse cry.
Steven Assanti is the kind of patient where you just KNOW those nurses are doing best out of three on rock, paper, scissors to see who checks in on him when his nurse isn't available. He is awful toward them, treats them like less than maids who are there to "serve" him, and him alone, and acts as though he's in a five star hotel. I'm genuinely surprised that Dr. Nowzaradan ever allowed him into the hospital in the first place.
There is no way that TLC weren't the reason he wound up at that hospital, rather than the doc, himself.
The excuses he makes for his shitty behaviour, rather than taking responsibility and being accountable as an effing adult, and then puts the onus on the nurses to "...if I'm acting like a child, treat me like a child."....... 🙄🤬
As someone who has, unfortunately, spent my entire life in and out of hospital because of health issues, I would never even THINK of treating my nurses this way (hell, I've currently been in for just over a week, and still don't know when I get to go home)!!! The nurses are LEGIT what gets me through each stay.
They help with literally everything for on average four patients each at a time (the legislated patient to nurse ratio cap here in Victoria, which they at times have to exceed due to staffing shortages - it used to be eight not all that long ago), even providing emotional support beyond the scope of their duties when it's needed, as well as helping to advocate for patients when what the doctors are doing isn't working.
They are CONSTANTLY going above and beyond their care responsibilities for their patients, and are what makes staying here bearable for most patients, whilst also having more of a hand in patient care doing a basically thankless job, which they don't come even CLOSE to being paid enough for, than the doctors do.
The way he treats the nursing staff is beyond disgusting. Hell...I literally had to wait forty minutes for a response to my call bell the other day, because they were so swamped with everything going on that day, and didn't even bat an eye because I actually understand what this job is like for them. I simply appreciate the help that they give me, in whichever time frame they have available to be able to help me, and I make DAMNED sure that they always know EXACTLY how much I appreciate them for what they do.
If you want a good idea of just how shitty of a patient, and person in general, he was, I highly recommend watching the full episode or two with he and his brother (who isn't much better of a person, in all honesty). His episode/s have to be the most hate watched My 600 Pound Life episode/s in the shows history.
My favourite part is definitely from after Dr. Now kicks him out of the hospital - he presents at multiple ED's eight times in like the space of a week or so, drug chasing, and Dr. Now winds winds up reporting him to the authorities so that if he does it again, he just gets straight up arrested and sent to jail. THE LOOK ON HIS FACE WHE. DR. NOW TELLS HIM......freaking GOLD!!!! 😂😂😂 6:47
im almost 100% positive that the lights can be controlled by the same remote he is using to call the nurse
He’s clearly lived his whole life rarely (if ever) being told “no” and thankfully the hospitals are not tolerating his mindset. I wonder if it only went on for multiple months for the show and how long it would take in a non-televised case for a hospital to kick someone this toxic and abusive out.
I think Maybe it Will take longer for à non televise patient because here they have proof on video that is abusive to the nurse and help nurse but for à regular patient they have no real évidence that is abusive to them but Maybe im wrong
I've been admitted into the hospital quite a few times and I ALWAYS feel terrible pressing the call button even if I actually needed it like for help to the bathroom or something, I always apologized and thanked the nurses and tried to make friendly conversation. I could NEVER imagine treating hospital staff like that, especially when your life is on the line.
I always feel bad to so I always wait for the other People in my room to press the button like this they Come in for two People at once instead of ckming to times
@@sand_Ra24 I've used that method a few times too but my last hospital stay I was kept for 2 weeks and immobilized so I was in a private room and couldn't do that, but I would force myself to deal with things that wasn't a necessity for the nurses sake bc I was 100% dependant on them
I am exactly the same way.
I usually ask family members just so I don’t have to bug the nurse.
Don't feel bad. It's what it's for.
If I was a nurse in that hospital, I would take my sweet ass time to respond to him. He’s like the boy who cried wolf and it’s going to catch up to him
It's already caught up to him
Whenever anyone says they are "fustrated" like this guy, it annoys the hell out of me.
When I was in the hospital I would wait with anything that wasn't an emergency until a nurse came in, and they kept telling me I should call more often, that I was sick and they were there to take care of me. There were many hugs and tears when I was released. Those nurses were amazing.
I was the same way with nurses the times I was in the hospital. They were actually worried because I wouldn’t press the call button. I didn’t want to be a bother to them.
So many people now are just fine with speaking like toddlers, it’s insane
Omg I feel so bad for the entire staff while he was there.
I'm actually surprised he's still alive & hanging on..
HE’ S STILL ALIVE!?
I thought I saw that he died years ago
Just looked into it, there was a rumor, but he refuted it. He’s also married 😭
The most miserable seem to be kept alive for karmic reasons 😂😂
yeah he does cameo and shit now, but he clearly still has massive addiction problems and remains a POS
Someone this deeply psychologically flawed and entitled has been trained to be this way by his parents/caretakers his whole life. “Oh my precious baby boy! What do you need my sweet boy?”
His dad has unintentionally signed his death warrant using love and kindness as a pen
Excellent metaphor!
100% true. He also favored Steven over his brother a lot and let Steven bully him all the time and let him even take his pain meds from him. The dad is as bad as he is not hard to see who he gets it from.
You should be a poet lol
While I agree to a degree and that the dad is definitely also the enabler, I also feel that when you wind up in your 30s there comes a point where an intelligent person will use their brain and realize what they're doing is wrong and start to do some serious self-reflecting. Especially after being kicked out of others with this hospital being his last resort. Epecially after he's been given fair warnings in this hospital, to boot. He's a grown ass man now so he definitely is also responsible for his own actions at this point. And he chose to be... like this.
That ain’t kindness man. That’s codependent enabling!
As a nurse, I really appreciate the people sympathetic to the nurses.
Steven: "Everybody has feelings."
Dr. Now: "... Uh, yeah... that's true..."
🤣🤣🤣
I remember how he treated his own brother, who was his polar opposite and seemed like an actually decent person. I hope his brother is doing okay.
His brother is doing better, he did everything Doctor No wanted, got the procedure approved and now owns a hobby shop.
@@ritterdesimperiums7655 that’s awesome! So good to hear it.
I'm a retired RN and have had a couple of truly outrageous, impossible patients like this tool. We just got a very, very small glimpse...you know this guy was on that light day and night...the staff were probably all threatening to quit, and I know they dreaded dealing with that abusive behavior.
But you know what sounds like you dealt with it the right way. More than I can say for many other nurses in these comments. It seems there is such a high number of new nurses especially the two year degree ones….and it’s really putting a stain on their chosen career as many of them do not care about the patients, lack empathy and are beyond cruel. I have blue cross blue shield platinum and i don’t like talking about it but something really odd was happening that needed to be removed/checked. I was wearing a playboy hoodie and sweatpants…the nurse told me I didn’t have health insurance even tho I gave her my id to check, when I called my insurance because I paid out of pocket they open d up a discrimination claim against her because she never even checked, she just disliked that I had platinum blonde hair and playboy sweater on. She probably lost her job but still…it’s people like that that make me fear nurses. This other girl who is a friend of my friends is a nurse and claims “she doesn’t want to help homeless people because they’re gross”……oh and btw she has three friends who are also nurses, exhibit the same behavior and two of the three are…strippers who are addicted to drugs. The one literally steals drugs from the hospital and does it with one of the doctors…..🤦♀️ my grandma was a nurse and she was so wonderful that they made a scholarship for future nurses in her name. I really wish all the good nurses like you and her didn’t retire because oh boy hospitals scare me now lol
@@nicolette1598 I am sorry for your bad experiences but I also do think that those have given you a rather negative bias towards nurses as a whole which I don't find very fair. And you spreading such a negative view and generalizing them all like that isn't helping. Being a nurse is an incredibly demanding job, both physically and mentally, and they do get a lot of unjust shit already. I really don't think most nurses, nor the ones in the comments who vent a bit in a general senses about dealing with similar patients like the guy in this video, are necessarily bad nurses. It is a fact that it simply sucks to be yelled at while you're literally running yourself ragged. We're all only human. It's no different from a customer service worker getting annoyed at a Karen but the sad part is if it's a patient, especially one that's staying for a long time, dealing with them is not just done and over with quickly. You're stuck dealing with it. Day in, day out. Being a good nurse doesn't mean being okay with being treated like dirt. I am not saying there are not bad ones out there. There are. But, there's shitty people in every profession, as well as how there will always be shitty patients health care workers will have to deal with. Both suck. That's just the bottom line. Yet, there's also plenty of good nurses and plenty of grateful patients, too.
@@nicolette1598 it’s always the people with lovely nurses as family members that spread this negativity… thank goodness your grandma isn’t reading this awful negative generalisation of nurses…. The issue here is if someone reads this will think all newly graduated or Practicing nurses are awful but they aren’t… stop spreading negativity about nurses and the profession
@@nicolette1598 a TON of great nurses quit very early on to get out of bedside care. Its extremely abusive and downright dangerous. My mom (Paramedic/EMT/E.R. Nurse of 20 or so years.) Has been stabbed with a fork, had chairs thrown at her, was punched REPEATEDLY, and thats just a few of the things that happened to her. Management at a lot of hospitals are NOT like dr. now, they dont care to protect you and will definitely punish you if you try to refuse a violent assignment.
I did CNA work for about a year in an LTC, in that time I was spit on, had urine thrown at me, i was punched several times by multiple patients, I was touched underneath my scrub top by a patient, I was kicked, i had coffee thrown at me, sometimes food trays. I had one patient attempt to hit me with her bedpan. The verbal abuse alone was insane.
I started that work because I wanted to help people, i had taken care of my grandma and it meant something to me to take care of other people loved ones. But just a few weeks in I realized a lot of these patients are just downroght hateful and management will do absolutely nada to protect us. There were 12 people in my starting week, they were all incredibly kind and had the right motives. There is not a single one of us left. There was one travel nurse I adored who would help with my overload of patients (11-22pts depending on callouts. There were always call outs.) and gave me tylenol when I had a kidney infection and didnt know it yet. I got to work 4 shifts with her and then she never came back. When we are expected to tolerate horrible horrible treatment with a smile, we lose all of our good people. The only ones left lack empathy, because they have to to make it through the day. If we treated the staff better from the get go, especially post covid, we wouldnt be in this situation. This is a problem of the publics making.
@@nicolette1598"I don't really like talking about it" proceeds to write a damn paragraph talking ALL about it... Lololol Also your apparent NEED to describe your appearance is weird .. Definitely just screams "pick me" energy. Yikes 😂
As a CNA, hearing him trash talk about the nurses not answering call lights fast enough hurt my soul 😅
I hope you don't mind me Asking but what does CNA stand for?

@@kathybeasley1823 Certified Nursing Assistant. Basically, while nurses take care of medicine and things, Nursing assistants help patients with everyday things, like using the bathroom, showers, changing briefs, etc. At least the facility I work in, it’s usually the CNAs who answer call lights, not the nurses.
@@Kate-kh9wwWe have ward boys in Indian hospitals to clean the patients, hold up urine jugs to help them piss if they are too sick to go to bathroom
People like Steven and their family members, who often times are even more abusive, are the reason why I quit nursing after 18 years.
Steven is gonna have some hellacious withdrawals after being on IV pain meds for months, too! Why he couldn’t take it by mouth is beyond me. If the doctor had changed his pain meds or threatened to stop them if his behavior didn’t stop, I’m betting he would’ve been singing a different tune.
I remember being in the ER waiting for help and my mom (who is a nurse) had to not only take my vitals, she had to check my IV and other things… I’m starting to think people like him are the reason the nurses were overwhelmed
One of the many reasons they are overwhelmed at the moment 😕 on top of staff shortages, unhelpful management etc. people really need to think before they press the button for help as awful as it sounds
ERs are overflowing with people who do not need to in the ER and tools like this guy. That why people who actually need help have to wait longer.
God he's ridiculous. I get annoyed with myself when I ask nurses for ice water more than once lol and he's just doing the most and being so rude.
If you drink a lot of water, consider asking for a pitcher or several cups at once. I definitely never minded doing that for my patients and it usually saved me 2 to 3 trips back and forth per patient. Everybody wins!
Ps. I do the same thing at restuarants because I drink a LOT of water.
I was in the hospital in January for my epilepsy, and I had to stay for about 4 days to be monitored. I ended up with a kidney stone (the only one I’ve ever had) because I felt bad about having to have a nurse come assist me to unhook my IV bag every time I had to go. Not that I was going more than usual or anything, but it was just the thought to me that the nurses had more important things to do than help me to the bathroom for four days. To see this guy just treat everyone like they’re his personal servants hurts my soul since I hate inconveniencing them and feel so bad about having them come to check on me or bring me my food so much.
8:06 The way how light goes off when he says “Turn This Light Off!!!” kills me everytime 🤣
My mom is a respiratory therapist and the amount of people she talks about that treat her hospital like a hotel is uncalled for.
As a nurse, this behaviour gets under my skin. I had a falling out with family after I confronted the negative behaviour toward hospital staff when my grandmother was in the hospital. If my grandma had been aware of that behaviour, she would have been so disappointed in those family members.
I’ve been in the hospital multiple times. Your day is very planned out ahead of time. You know when your food is coming, you know when the person will be in to help you get washed up and dressed, you know when the doctor is coming and when your pain meds are coming. If you need a nurse for some other reason you need to understand that they may be dealing with patients who are much more ill than you and give them time. It does get annoying for them to answer the bell sometimes but just remember they are only one person and you are only one of their patients
That doctor is hilarious. I love how blunt he is. He is too old for this shit lol straight up! 😂
“You don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here” 😂
Closing time😂
That’s one of my favorite songs. That was a good callback
I've unfortunately had to go to the hospital far more times than most people due to kidney failure and a weak immune system. And every time regardless of the pain I am in, I always am polite to all of the staff. One time I remember the nurse telling me she was sad to see me back so soon but glad to have been reassigned to me as I wans a easy patient to work with. If you treat them with respect, they too will return that respect. Thank you to all of those that keep the hospitals running.
Nurse here.. the amount of patients that I have had from every walk of life that act like this is astonishing.. you would think people like this are far and few between but sadly they are much more common than You would expect.. large part of the reason I left the field due to burn out. I could feel my compassion and empathy drain and you can’t be in that field without those 2 qualities, or at least you shouldn’t be.. now everyone annoys me..
its called PTSD.burnout.
I worked in a hospital for 3years and i can tell you respectfully, the very big heavy patients were always the ones who gave the nurses and and nurse assistants the hardest time during their stay.
I worked as a Nurse Aid in a trauma unit and literally people manipulate you and use the call button nonstop. And yes by law we need to respond, but unfortunately when you get people like Steven it makes my shift so much harder. In my unit I served half the floor at times because of understaffing which would be 60 patients. And then you get someone calling you to get their purse next to them and shuffle through their purse for a pen. It's frustrating because you want to help but you also need to promote their independence
God, I remember Steven. He was so aggressive and nasty to so many people and had his father wrapped around his little finger. He really needed some intensive psychological help, but I don't know if even that would have helped. I remember a commenter on a CZcams upload of the show saying Steven might have had Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, because of his facial features and the fact his mum was an alcoholic, and that it could explain his aggressive and violent behaviour.
It was really a mess of a time - they did multiple episodes on him and his brother, and it really felt like they were taking severe advantage of an awful situation that needed actual intervention and not to be made into a spectacle on TV. It's so sad and scary.
The thing is, it's best for others that he doesn't get out of that bed. Imagine if he was walking around - he's either hurt someone or piss off the wrong person and get hurt himself.
@@creativechaosify I really don't even think it would be possible for him to get that mobile tbh. He did lose a lot of weight at one point, but even then was still bed bound, and eventually he just put weight back on. I don't think he has the mental capacity for it, and when I say he needed intensive help it wasn't really to get him to lose weight, but to at least have a modicum of control over his emotions so he doesn't keep abusing people. But like I said, idk if that would even work
I agree with fetal alcohol syndrome theory. He has some kind of mental disability.
“Little finger”
@@mango4981nah cuz that’s exactly what I said reading this comment 😭 😭 😭
shoulda said obese finger
I felt bad when I had to call the nurse because I was throwing up when I was hospitalized with preeclampsia right after my son was born. The meds they gave me to stop me from stroking out made me massively sick. Plus I was, also, on meds to pull fluids from my body because my body had so much built up fluid that it was compressing my heart and lungs. I seriously was in danger of dying and didn’t want to bother any of the nurses because I knew they were busy. I hate when people don’t have empathy for hard workers.
I saw him on a TikTok live almost a year ago begging for money and yelling at people for saying his teeth are falling out from pills but “it’s from the soda”
Those poor nurses, they deserve much more respect and kindness
11:14 That poor woman made me sad. She just sounds so defeated.
We’re turning into walle. Looks and acts like a baby, is severely overweight, and he’s got a red onesie.
I was in the freaking psych ward and didn't treat the nurses like this. I saw a patient get kicked out for treating them like this too. You just don't treat medical staff this way. Or anyone for that matter.
As a nurse I feel for these healthcare workers. The stress and the lack of staff makes it harder to deal with these kind of people. Patients need to understand that we are not working to serve people but to treat people.
I can heavily relate to the constant requesting of the nurse. We encourage independence to the fullest extent. On my unit, we have taken up to six critical patients per nurse. Care is a balancing act, and having a patient that is understanding of that makes a world of differenece!
It truly does! The place I work the residents are pretty patient and nice so I got lucky in that aspect but it always a catch 22 because the staff sucks. 😂
I had to go into the hospital last year for a total of 3 ½ weeks. I hated having to push that button because at the beginning, they had me on an external catheter & required me to call a nurse when I had to use the restroom. Almost every nurse was an absolute angel & I hated to bother them, but they also had me on Lasix & there was NO WAITING. I was embarrassed quite a few times on that stay because even though I'd call the nurses ahead of time & clearly explain what I needed assistance with, they didn't get to me in time, Almost every time. Even though I had that external catheter, it didn't stand a chance against all the excess fluid & the side effects of a high dosage iron pill... still I tried not to be a nuisance & I couldn't ever dream of yelling at them the way Steven did.
@@BeeTeePee you shouldn't feel that way because you had a serious situation going on which they should have made sure you were priority #1 since you had a catheter so I'm sorry you had to deal with that.
@sarahmccullum2880 thanks love. I tried to be as low maintenance as possible because I would be in my room & I could hear some of the other patients being just absolutely unbearable to the nurses & I always felt so bad.
@@BeeTeePee Girl im a cardiac nurse so I totally get the Lasix! I will always try my best to help my patients as quickly and as efficiently as possible!
Tammy seems so sweet and kind now.
Steven walked so Nikacado could run 😂😂
More like Steven waddled so nickacado can roll
i think we all know why his dad wanted to get him into a new facility so fast lol
got a taste of freedom and NEEDED IT
Imagine having to deal with this piece of human garbage for 3 months. I wouldn't be able to tolerate him for 3 minutes
Be nice to your nurses, they work very hard to make you as comfortable and feel welcomed, don’t think it’s what you deserve they are being angels and showing kindness.
The look of horror on their faces when the first clips of Steven comes on the screen 💀💀 I bought 2 cameos from this dude, he’s missing teeth and his hair is all weird now, and his inability to follow a script was hilarious
I am just surprised he's still alive. Some days I feel like I should just become an asshole because shitty people always seem to live forever. But then I couldn't even live with myself being that kind of person, so then I am like, nevermind. 😂
im a med student and had to do nurse work for just a month and some of those patients were so insanely disrespectful to me it was crazy; luckily our Sister Rabiata was there to bring them down from their high horse and make them realize that theyre in a hospital and that nurses have more important work than bringing someone their tea
Reasons why I never pursued that field sick people seem to forget their manners
The doc is right about that here in Texas. It's called Southern Hospitality for a reason. But it does have its limits when it comes to people acting like this.
If Texas were anything like that movie "North", he'd be right at home!
I wonder how a person even gets like that. It is intriguing.
Dang, Colt really let himself go
😂
😂
😅😅😅
LMAO
This guy never heard The Boy Who Cried Wolf as a kid and clearly got everything he wanted.
I'm currently on mat leave from a medical floor and this video was like a 'Nam flashback, good lord.
I wish we could kick people out for months of toxic behavior, God bless Dr. Now for standing up for his nurses.
That one nurse that turned the light off is definitely the cutest nurse
“If I act like a kid I want you to treat me like a kid”
Alright staff, grab the belt and take away that iPad!
LMFAOOOO
I used to work in a hospital as a healthcare assistant, this guy is the worst.
Respect to the ward staff for putting up with his shit for so long.
As a carer it's hard sometimes people don't understand how busy we can be when you're cleaning ir helping someone to the toilet you can't just drop everything just to adjust a pillow
In the hospital he's like "man it takes too long for food that I'm losing weight"
"In the whole state of Rhode Island"...
My brain immediately goes to an old Family Guy Episode where Peter's obese and carried around by a crane 😬🤭
*Also, what an Asshat! Those poor nurses. We loved all of our nurses during the births of our kids. One even said we were so low maintenance coming in to see us was like a little break.
Someone needs to give these nurses a raise.
I have had patients like this. What's even worse is when these types of patients call their family and the family members call the nurses station to inform them their call light is on.
What he needs is to have NO ONE help him. Let him do it alone. You either fly out the nest or fall and perish
Dr. Now is a badass! He doesn't put up with any trash at all.
Huge plus to working in the veterinary field. Your patients can’t do this ^^
No but their owners can and do 😂 I've done both and left both for very similar reasons.
I'd rather be kicked in the head by a horse than dealing with this guy
I imagine the cats just sit and quietly judge 😊 Sorry I just love cats 😂
As a former nurses assistant this guy is triggering me so badly. Where I worked I was so busy I was unable to sit for the entirety of my 12 hour shifts. Some patients have emergencies and we have to attend to them for long periods of time. Also if I'm in another room I can't hear or see an announcement that I'm needed. Most of these patients are super rude when you do come give them care too. Sir this is a hospital not a hotel. GAH just needed to vent
I work in Healthcare and this is how people think they can treat us and act towards us. They think they are the only patients we have and if we don't answer the second they call they will become angry and sometimes get violent. It's a problem that is over looked
What a great sociopath. Can’t do anything involving moving but still gets his way.
It's really rough having patients like these especially if you have a patient passing away or someone with high needs and you're constantly having to run back to put a buzzer off for nothing questions
When I was admitted back in January, I never pressed the call button. I was too nervous to bother anyone, even when I was throwing up. 😅😅
I cannot imagine abusing the hospital staffers like that.
9:44 PRICELESS!!!!! The timing,reaction,delivery, and edit!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣💯
In the middle of his interview right after leaving the room🤣🤣
Doctor Now is one of the most savage professionals on tv 😂😂 Steven is so annoying if i were at his place, he would gave caught these hands
I feel bad for his dad. I wish my dad was still alive
jesus man, I hope ur feeling alright, if anything I bet u make ur dad proud ❤
Sorry for your loss.
We've had someone kinda like this in a hospital I worked at. No one was to go into the room by yourself, always had to have a second person in there just in case.
Like I was in the hospital for 16 days with broken femur, tib, fib, and pelvis, lacerated spleen and a brain bleed and I hated asking for anything. Like I always felt bad when I did and usually just dealt with it once the nurses came back around. I could not imagine doing anything like this.
I remember watching these episodes. His brother was so sweet, and I remember he opened a figure store or something like that. And I think Steven actually eventually lost the weight and got a girlfriend if i remember correctly.
