‘Bad side manner’ what does it mean?
Could you please explained what does ‘badside( bat?side) manner’ mean?
It was from a movie, with no subtitles.
‘Her badside manner is terrible but you’re safe with her’.
It was about a woman with a gun. And she was going to guard someone. Where wasn’t any bad around:)
I guess that it means something like - her way of helping( communicating?), but the ‘bad’ confuses me.

It's "bedside manner". It means the way of relating that is good for dealing with sick or vulnerable people. Nurses typically should have a good bedside manner, which means that a patient feels cared for.
In the film, I imagine that this woman was not considered a very caring person but was still trustworthy. The sentence is a little ironic.
