I think it is their business, however, it should be kept between them and not made obvious to staff or patients. When this happens it creates an enviornment of poor morale by the staff having to "put up with" an open affair that has negative effects on the unit as a team. The nurse and doctor ought to have class enough to take their affair outside of their work place. One or the other should leave.

I am 54 years old and will graduate with my BSN in May 2005. It has not been easy, but I am preparing for the future in case I decide to get away from critical care and the ER. I expect to work until I retire and the BSN will give me an opportunity to find a nursing niche more suitable as I grow older.

Worked through MSN agency. Got to work at all the local hospitals and also in Georgetown. Georgetown was a small hospital, however, it was really "nurse friendly" place to work. Wish you luck..............Keep posted on how you are doing.

I have chosen nursing as my fourth career and have love it the most. Started out as an LPN, obtained my ADN and now in the process of getting BSN. I have been with the VA for 10 years and nothing beats the benefits! I have worked agency to find out for myself how it was in the private sector. Actually, I was quite proud to return to the VA. They say the grass always looks greener and I found out for myself that it was not. If anyone can get in on a full-time bases at the VA, I highly recommend it. Good bedside nurses are needed! I have enjoyed working in CCU even though it does have its times of "madness":)
