📢 Customer Service Seminar Highlights! 🏥
📅 July 17, 2025 | 📍 CLMMRH

Thank you to all who joined our Customer Service Orientation Seminar! Here's a quick recap of our key takeaways 💡👇

🔹 The patient is not just a case — they are our customer.
🔹 69% of patients leave because of poor service, not poor facilities.
🔹 A smile, a warm greeting, and a listening ear can change a patient’s whole experience.
🔹 Use the GUEST model in every interaction:
Greet. Understand. Explain. Satisfy. Thank.
🔹 Feedback is a gift! Encourage it. Act on it. Learn from it.
🔹 Excellent service = exceeding expectations. Small acts of kindness matter.
🔹 Even angry patients just want to be heard. Stay calm, empathize, resolve, follow up.

🌟 Let’s not just treat illnesses — let’s create healing experiences.
Together, we build a hospital that’s not just competent, but compassionate.

Hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP) is an evolving process: patients may begin with gestational hypertension and later develop preeclampsia.

For obstetricians, aspirin is considered a “miracle drug” in reducing the incidence of preeclampsia. Starting low-dose aspirin (usually 81 mg daily) early in pregnancy lowers the risk of developing preeclampsia.

Early initiation is important, particularly in patients with high-risk factors (e.g., history of preeclampsia, chronic hypertension, autoimmune disease, diabetes, multiple gestation).

For cardiologists, there may be hesitation to continue aspirin late in pregnancy due to concerns such as persistent foramen ovale, but its major role is during the 1st and 2nd trimesters for preeclampsia prevention.

Its understandable that because of health care cost is inflating a lot of people are looking for cheaper options. Yet may it not cause the life or limb of already financially struggling patients. There are always options find the proper and safer fit. A lot of health care charlatans are preying these poor victims.

TRIGGER WARNING: IM MAKING IT MORE DIFFICULT TO DIFFICULT PEOPLE 😂😂😂

To be difficult to difficult people (without being toxic yourself), you essentially want to disrupt their usual control patterns while maintaining your own peace and power. Here’s how you can flip the tips in the image and use them to strategically become "difficult" for toxic individuals:

💣 1. I Don’t React

> 🧠 Why it works: Difficult people feed off reactions.
🔥 Be difficult by: Giving them no fuel. Calm indifference is their kryptonite.

🔒 2. I Don’t Take Responsibility for Their Mess

> 🧠 Why it works: They expect you to fix or absorb their chaos.
🔥 Be difficult by: Shrugging off their drama with phrases like “That’s unfortunate. I hope it works out.”

🛑 3. I REALLY REALLLY Set Hard Boundaries—And Stick to Them

> 🧠 Why it works: Boundaries frustrate controlling people.
🔥 Be difficult by: Clearly saying “No, that’s not acceptable to me.” And not budging.

🎭 4. I Stay Calm While They Escalate. And laughing inside or even outside seeing them loosing control. Albeit enjoying them loosing control esp in public 😂😂😂

> 🧠 Why it works: They want to drag you into the emotional mud.
🔥 Be difficult by: Staying polite, slow, and firm—like an unshakeable wall.

📊 5. I Use Logic, Not Emotion

> 🧠 Why it works: They thrive on emotional chaos.
🔥 Be difficult by: Keeping it cool and sticking to facts—no story, no drama.

🧘 6. I Refuse to Play the “Fixer”

> 🧠 Why it works: Many difficult people want attention or therapy.
🔥 Be difficult by: Saying “I’m not the right person for that.” End of story.

🤐 7. Im VERY VERY Comfortable with Silence. IM QUITE GOOD IN YEARS OR EVEN A LIFETIME OF SILENT TREATMENT TO THESE PEOPLE.

> 🧠 Why it works: Awkward silence unnerves manipulative people.
🔥 Be difficult by: Pausing before answering. Let them sit in the discomfort.

🔄 8. I Shift the Topic or Exit the Conversation

> 🧠 Why it works: They want control over the narrative.
🔥 Be difficult by: Redirecting or walking away. “I’m not engaging in this.”

🧠 9. I Anticipate and Outsmart

> 🧠 Why it works: They are often predictable.
🔥 Be difficult by: Seeing it coming and defusing it with minimal effort.

👥 10. I Strategically Disclose

> 🧠 Why it works: They want info to use against you.
🔥 Be difficult by: Sharing only what serves your purpose—nothing more.

Final Tip:

💡 Being “difficult” to difficult people = being firm, clear, and immune to their games.
You make yourself the hardest target by being calm, boundary-strong, and unpredictable.

I ENVOKE YOU TO BE VERY DIFFICULT WITH DIFFICULT PEOPLE NOT BUYING INTO THEIR DRAMAS 😂😂😂

IM WITH PAWSSION PROJECT. The sender’s messages reflect a defensive, elitist, and condescending tone, revealing several layers of social prejudice, entitlement, and insecurity. Below is a structured analysis of their intent and personality profile:

✅ Intent Analysis

1. Justification of Exclusionary Attitudes

The sender repeatedly justifies not helping strays, street vendors, and the underprivileged by citing aesthetic standards, safety concerns, and property values.

They believe the city pound and government—not residents like them—should be responsible for stray animals and street dwellers.

2. Self-Preservation and Group Image Protection

The sender wants to maintain the “high-end” image of their neighborhood, Southwoods, and sees public charity work or tolerance for street activity as a threat to that image.

They fear being seen as villains, yet they admit to telling others not to donate or help.

3. Passive-Aggressive Dismissal of Animal Welfare Advocates

There is a repeated pattern of mocking concern for animals (“tara labas na lang tayo,” “fashion vlog na lang”), which serves to trivialize the recipient's cause.

Their mockery is mixed with veiled envy and performative flattery (“we're not really bad,” “we might even be friends”).

4. Deflection and Minimization of Responsibility

The sender downplays their potential role in community support and shifts the burden to the government or to those who voluntarily help.

They highlight how hard they and their parents worked, suggesting that others should do the same instead of relying on goodwill.

5. Desire to Control Narrative

“Hey wait baka ishare nyo ito…” indicates fear of public backlash and a desire to control perception.

This reveals awareness of the problematic nature of their opinions, even if they try to justify them.

🧠 Personality Profile (Likely Traits)

Trait Description

Elitist/Classist Shows a clear bias against lower-income individuals, vendors, and even animals perceived as unclean or unsightly.
Image-Conscious Obsessed with appearances, community status, and reputation. Disturbed by things that affect their curated "high-end" environment.
Passive-Aggressive Uses sarcasm and backhanded compliments to attack others’ efforts while maintaining a façade of civility.
Insecure but Defensive Attempts to validate their privilege by referencing parental sacrifices and hard work, while simultaneously distancing themselves from any obligation to help.
Group-Oriented/Tribalistic Aligns self with “Southwoods residents” to draw collective validation and support for exclusionary attitudes.
Dismissive of Altruism Views charitable efforts as naive or wasteful, encouraging the other party to pursue superficial interests instead.
Conflict-Averse but Judgmental Tries to soften judgment (“we’re not bad,” “we might be friends”), but the statements remain deeply critical and prejudiced.

🟠 Summary Judgment

The sender exhibits a privileged mindset, cloaked in performative civility but laced with prejudice and insensitivity. They aim to distance themselves from any responsibility, justify their inaction, and maintain a sanitized social environment. Despite some lip service to empathy, their underlying attitudes are exclusionary, dismissive, and self-serving.

Dealing with individuals who display elitist, dismissive, and passive-aggressive attitudes, like the one in the screenshots, requires emotional intelligence, strategic communication, and clear boundaries. Here's a guide tailored for your context (advocacy, community work, or animal welfare):

🧭 1. Clarify Your Own Goals

Before engaging:

Ask yourself: What do I want from this person or conversation?

Support? Respect? Silence? Change in behavior?

If their mindset is deeply entrenched, you may not get validation or cooperation—and that’s okay. Your goal might shift to protecting your group, educating others, or exposing harmful bias.
💬 2. Respond with Calm Assertiveness

Avoid matching their tone. Instead:

Sample response:

> “Thank you for sharing your perspective. I understand you value order and appearance in your community. At the same time, our work addresses real lives—animals and people alike—who deserve compassion and dignity.
We don’t expect everyone to agree or help. But we do ask for respect and space to do what we believe is right.”

This: ✅ Sets boundaries
✅ Defends your mission
✅ Avoids emotional escalation
✅ Shows moral clarity

🛑 3. Know When to Disengage

You're not obligated to argue endlessly.

If they mock, belittle, or gaslight:

Don’t defend yourself too much; they’re not genuinely listening.

Say: “I see we have different values. Let’s leave it there.”

🧠 4. Educate the Bystanders, Not the Bully

Often, your audience isn’t the loud critic—but the silent observers.

Post responses that are composed and fact-based.

Use this opportunity to highlight your advocacy’s purpose, ethics, and outcomes.

Let others see who is being constructive and who is being callous.

🛡️ 5. Set Boundaries for Repeated Harassment

If this person continues:

Mute or block them on social media.

Report if their words cross into harassment, defamation, or hate speech.

Document everything if you feel threatened.

💪 6. Draw Strength from Allies

Don’t carry this burden alone:

Share with your team or trusted group chat.

Ask for support when releasing public responses.

Let others help amplify your message and push back against elitism.

🌱 7. Keep Doing the Work

People like this thrive when they wear down your energy. But your quiet persistence, visible results, and integrity will ultimately speak louder than their entitlement.

> Remember: Kindness is not weakness.
And dignity is not exclusive to gated communities.
