Many Personal Care Aides will experience stubborn or difficult clients. The client may have a mental or neurological disorder, have a health issue, be in chronic pain, or be unhappy. You must remain calm and patient when working with stubborn or difficult clients. If you are not capable of extending patience, this will not be a good profession for you. Describe how you remained patient with a stubborn or difficult client. If you are new to the field, you can use an example of extending patience in another scenario.

"I extend patience to all of my clients. I understand what they may be going through and genuinely feel compassion for those that I am helping. I realize it may be difficult not to take care of daily living activities, and I would be stubborn, too! I never take anything personally and extend my help wherever it is needed."
