Did you call me a black bitch?

We’ve written here about how CNA’s are often the victim of discrimination and racism. But this article takes the other side to the extreme:
WEBSTER — A certified nurse’s aide is charged with allegedly hitting an elderly resident at a local extended care facility after the resident, who is suffering from dementia, called her a racially derogatory name.
It’s hard to be called names. It’s even harder to be called racially charged names. How do aides ignore this and walk away? Is there a better way to prepare people who want to work as aides, to deal with these comments?

I do feel what this person did was wrong but I can understand why she would do this . I have had some residents that were very abusive and sometimes you hit your breaking point
