Hi, everybody. I have a question. I am a student nurse in Canada, almost done with my RN program. During my consolidation I met this nice man. I never was assigned to care for him, it just happened that we started talking and there is a strong attraction between us. I reviewed CNO guidelines, and it says that the nurse can date a patient after the discharge, after applying fair judgement and if it is not obvious that this nurse will continue patient's care. But actually, he never was my patient to start, nor will I ever have to work with him as a nurse after I get my licence. He is getting discharged in a couple of days, asked for my phone number. I declined explaining all ethical aspect, valnurability and such. He said that I surprised him, because he never felt as if I abused my powers, and besides I was never his nurse. Would it be unethical and inappropriate if we have a dinner after his discharge? Or at least exchange numbers, wait for few months and if still feel like talking to each other, have a dinnner or coffee? He is mentally stable, was at the hospital with fractures.
