has any one ever know or has fallen for a patient.

and if so what happend

and can someone lose there license if they feel this way but nothing ever happens between the two people while the patient is in the hospital?

Also can a nurse loose thier license if the two people meet in the hospital but dont hook up untill after the patient is discharged?

I heard of a situation recently and I had all these questions but we are banned from talking about his situation with other co-workers.

It's still a free country last time I checked.

Patient nurse relationships are rarely appropriate and rarely work out. Don't do it.

This isn't the place for legal advice, I'm sorry. You could ask your state board if you are a nurse, but I suspect that would also come under the "can't talk about it."
