I have a very similar circumstance- My husband is an administrator and I an RN- the catch to that is that we work at the same facility, he as administrator and myself as Director of Nursing. I enjoy working with my husband and have worked with him for several years, he is a great adminisistrator- sorry to say there will be problems still though, most people enjoy working with the 2 of us (many don't realize we're married until they notce last names)! My only advice is to keep work and home seperate, do the best job you can and at times things do have to fall harder on the spouse at work just to rule out favoritism. Good Luck:balloons:

Just going to post that I followed up with the boards in Texas and LVNs if checked off by a facility RN can care for, flush and piggyback through central lines- just not IV push meds.

Hello- I am a DON in a long term care facility, we perform a lot of skilled care here. I have heard that changes have been made in Texas so that LVNs cannot flush, administer meds, or complete dressing changes on triple lumens even if they have additional certification- anyone know if this is valid or what the stipulations are in Texas- anyone have a policy already in place? Thank you
