Do you *really* think the social worker would tell you her job is to manipulate families if it were *you* she was trying to manipulate? I wouldn't think so.

Now - a lesson taught me by my mom - a nurse:

Nurses these days are very overworked, and I would imagine in this case they aren't paid much either. The best way to handle them would be to smile and ask when they will be taking the blood sugars because you want to see the results. Ask for a schedule... Then if they miss the schedule you can smilingly, while acknowledging their business, ask when they will get to the next one.

She has another trick, too. She always takes a box of chocolates to each shift. Small, but they will remember you kindly and go a bit extra.
