Left a job that I loved to come and work here. Was swayed by a team of Father/Son Surgeons to come and work with them. That did not sit well with their team. I ended up in the Adult Medicine Department. The job entailed checking patients into and out of their appointments. Making follow up ones if needed, directing them to the and X-ray.

Eventually moved out of there to OB/GYN

Co worker from Braintree Rehab informed me of a position open on the surgical floor of Milton Hospital for a Unit Coordinator. The current Secretary left abruptly. I applied and got the position immediately. When I toured the Unit with the Charge Nurse, I asked her one question. Am I allowed to make changes? Her answer was please!!!!!!
