Jehovah's Witnesses.....

My hospital has patients of all religious variations that are out there...every hospital does also. Frankly, that's not that insightful.

But of all the 'religious' peoples' who become inpatients the Jehovah Witness patient tend to be... well... "jerks."

I have been backed out of rooms. Told to "Stay away!" Told to "Don't ever come back."

Hey, patients have told me they didn't want chaplain visits. That's ok. The bottomline of hospital chaplaincy is that "It's about patient care, not chaplain care!"

But this is different.

In talking to our Social Workers and others in the Medical Team; it seems that it has been this way for a long time.

What the F#$%^^& is up with that?

Get over yourself!
