The Names are changing

Specialties Geriatric

Published

I kind of got this idea from the OB/GYN site about names. It seems that at the LTC facility where I work we have suddenly gotten more than our share of Dorothy's!! I have 6 on my hall of 42!! Plus there are 4 more in the building. (and 1 staff with that name). About 10 years ago, we had a whole bunch of Edith and Mables!! What are some of the common names you are seeing?

Thought this might be fun!:wink2:

helens & dorthys,& evelyns

Have noticed that most Deb, Debbie, Deborah, Debra's were born in the 50"s. Will be seeing all you LTC young "pups" in the next 10 years or so. Also, just a thought but will be seeing more tattos on some of us older ladies. :lol2:
