I'm curious to know how many of us work in the rampant healthcare industry and finding time around a busy schedule to care for your teeth. What if you never make it to lunch? What if your working in a busy intensive care unit or ER? Maybe you have to be in the OR for 16 hours. Or maybe you a CNA in a nursing home like myself and you end up having to work a double shift because of call-outs.
This may be gear more to the nurses and medical residents versus those in dental or other office-like settings of healthcare... or I could be wrong!
Working in Healthcare with Braces

Re: Working in Healthcare with Braces
I don't work in healthcare, but I do have a crazy busy job and full-time school. I'm getting my braces on Monday and I'm worried about how I will find the time during the day to take care of them! I figure I'm paying plenty of money so I'll find the time no matter what!

Re: Working in Healthcare with Braces
That's so true. Once your paying out of pocket, you'll find any and ever mean of taking care of your teeth. That's what I've been doing.kohldampf wrote:I don't work in healthcare, but I do have a crazy busy job and full-time school.

I'm not in the health care field, but I do know an RN who has braces and is managing pretty well (she works in a hospital, but I don't know what department she's currently in). She's almost finished with the braces now... lucky

My girlfriend is in Pediatrics, and she said she made time, granted at the end of the day all she did was work and do this or that or her teeth, but it is worth it so far. She has a few more months left.
