Training to care for a Pakeha

Yesterday I did a full days training for an Agency. Of those that attended there wasn't one Pakeha person there. This is not unusual nor is it a criticism. It is just a fact of life.

However, I asked them how much they new about Pakeha's and they looked at me blankley?

We can't blame them for not knowing about Pakeha's. We haven't told them who we are. It is impossible for them to know unless we tell them. Pakeha's, on the whole are not that good at saying what they want to a person's face. It is likely they will ask for very little then complain when they don't get what they want.

Pakeha's need to stand up for themselves. Tell people who you are. Then they will get the care you want.
