favorite job you ever had

[believeallispossible]

Hello LPNs! I would like to know out of all the jobs you have had, what job have you enjoyed the most?

The job I enjoyed most was working in an intermediate care facility for children and adults(both units) with developmental disabilities or considered medically fragile. I started working full time evening shift, then worked full time night shift, moved to weekend program days...now work on a per diem basis(any shift) in a pool position which works well with my frequent traveling and family responsibilities. I learned a great deal and utilized many of my nursing skills in this setting. Its been a challenge and a very rewarding work experience.

my best job was in an assisted living facility. it ran like clock work, had low acuity pts. and everyone got along great. then management changed and everything went to hell in a handbasket! when i left that job after 3 years, i landed in the world of emr-new areas, cutting edge. my medical background has helped alot with getting good paying projects, in town and out of town. by far the best gig i've ever had in 28 years.

I loved working in the chemical dependency unit of a local psychiatric hospital because there was never a dull moment in that place. It was cool seeing these people improve and go home to their families after initially being admitted in a down-and-out state. Also, some of the stories of the patients were rather interesting.
