Well I had my first day of orientation at the Catholic Hospital I ot a position at. I said something about getting the job before..
Well anyway, I must say I was really impressed. We had a Nun, who was the initial speaker/proctor? of the orientaion. Kind of wierd when she introduced herself as Sister, becuase she was wearing street clothes. I did ask her where's the habit, lol, and she said it was pretty much optional nowadays. I metioned to her I was Orthdodox, and her face kind of lit up in a smile and she said "really?"
But back to it..this seemed to me what a hospital should be like (so far). Everything was about God, and Christian virtues, etc. Everything focused on this, and patient care. Usually when you go to orientation in a hospital, you feel like it's a business. I didn't get that impression here. She also went into the history of the sister hospitals, and who the Saints were who they were named after. Was pretty interesting.
I think I will be happy here..
Anyway thought I would share..
