Hospital Love Stories ! ! !

Published

it would be nice to read about someone having a crush on one of their co-workers or how you fell in love with that special someone.....this would be cute, so everyone share your stories.........:heartbeat

I don't know the specifics, but my RN aunt fell in love with and married one of her patients. He had polio as a child, and now they've been married about 35+ years. :D So cute.

I cannot imagine the hospital as a setting for me to fall in love. But then I met and married my dh before I became a nurse. I think it's best to keep work and love life separate and distinct.

Perhaps, but it doesn't always work out that way. Many times it works quite well.

The next day, he switched floors at the hospital so there would be no conflict of interest, and last April we were married. I am still head over heels in love!

What a great story!! So, I have to know, did you invite cranky charge nurse to the wedding??? :)

Specializes in Telemetry, OR, ICU.

My wife & I met on the Telemetry floor at Seton Medical Center. I did a nursing clinical rotation on the Tele floor, and after graduation was hired on full-time as a staff nurse. Susan was one of the best skilled RNs, and best looking, too, on the Tele floor. ;) I hated giving shift report to some of the nurses since I was a new nurse. Some of them would ask questions about issues not really relevant to a change of shift report. However, I could usually get Susan to laugh while I was reporting off on a patient if she asked me some off the wall question. Once she started laughing the question was usually dropped. I always enjoyed seeing her at work, yet never got the nerve to ask her out before she left SMC to go work at another facility.

About a year and half later I started doing agency nursing at the Heart Hospital. I remembered Susan left SMC to go work at the Heart Hospital. I started asking some of the other staff nurses about Susan, and on my 5th shift working at the Heart Hospital she was coming on shift while I was coming off. I decided to go say hi to her, and if the conversation went well I'd ask her out. Needless to say, the conversation went well, we went out, once, then many times... several years later we got married.

:kiss

I agree. I think it's too likely to cause problems. :stone People have enough to gossip about as it is, and gossip is unnecessary in the first place. But that's another story.

These are cute stories, though. :) I just don't think that's for me, especially since I got married before I even came to the place I'm at now :p

I have seen some nasty so-called "love stories" in 2 of the 3 hospitals where I worked that actually compromised morale and the chain of command, on our units. The behavior involved was very indiscreet and improper and generated gossip that was unnecessary and inappropriate---not to mention insanely distracting. I hold that love stories belong OUTSIDE work, not at the worksite.

Now did I say no one should fall in love with a coworker, ever? Nope, nowhere did I say that. I said, keep it at home, not at work. And I stand by what I said. This is not "General Hospital!"

SOAPS gets on my nerves though. In fact, I was flippin' through channels the other day, and realized that a person just died that died 10 years ago.....WTFUDGE IS THAT? :chuckle
