And one more... Kevin Peterson is now an ICU nurse...

Kevin (who decided not to tell us until his last day) is now working in the ICU. I don't think it will take them long to figure out what a great addition to their staff he is going to be!
Good luck Kevin- and please feel free to pick up any extras on the floor!!!! :)
You'll be missed, so make sure you keep in touch! :)

and the list continues... Valerie is gone now :(

Valerie is moving to Arizona where her husband had a job offer as a teacher in Casa Grande. (Congrats to him)!
Val-
Good luck- keep us updated and don't melt! ;)

Janet is NOT quitting!

I think there has been a little note of worrying on the unit for about a week now. When Janet puts up a sign that says there's going to be a mini-meeting and everyone is encouraged to be there because there are going to be some changes on our unit- we get a little nervous.
The good news is- she not leaving. Because of the awsome person that she is, the higer ups have decided that she would be the best person to establish a new position as the neuro surgeon lieason. This will most likely end up being a part of her position here as the manager of the fourth floor. Getting this position up and running will take some serious commitment of time- so she is taking a leave of absence from us to focus on this. Janet says we should think of it as a type of "maternity leave"--Joe will take over for six months, and then she'll be back!
We asked the important questions:
1)Will your office still be your office?
No- this is so that the transistion will be smoother
2)Will you still be around?
"I'll probably be here more than I want to be." :)
3)Will you still be at the monthly lunches :)?
Yes
Good luck Janet- not that you'll need it!!! :)

Holly Jara is gone :(




Holly, who has been on our floor for so long, is now leaving us. She brought us the Jara fall protocol, Teal Thursday, "this is how I fall and slide" videos, special 7 layer bean dip,and was instramental in initiating check-your-check-Tuesday.
I was not there on her last night *sniff*, so I am just going to post a few pics I have of her from other events.
Congrats on the twins- let us know how you are, and when you have them. Keep up on your blog, and call us at night when you have nothing to do! :)

Heidi's last night

Heidi is also moving away from us. Of course we ate (cuz that's what we do) and chatted. Heidi is moving to Arkansas for a few months, and then will be a full time mom- Congrats!!! We will miss you!! (OH- and Heidi, I tried to post the video but it's not working- sorry! :) You are so good at keeping up on your blog that I'm sure we will see pics of the little one not long after you have him/her. :)

We will miss you Ben!

These are some pics from Ben Chu's last night at work. Ben is off getting an education in Delleware- and all of us who have work with him know he's going to be a great PA!
Ben- our floor wont be the same without you're musical influences and humor! Good luck and keep us updated!!! :)



Here is Ellen enjoyin the dinner we had... :)
