Years ago, I worked as an Intravenous (IV) Therapist at a large teaching hospital in Hartford, Connecticut. Little did I know at the time that I worked in Shangri-La. The patients were well cared for, the employees were happy, and the administration was enlightened. To give you ahint of how progressive they were, not only were we given free meals when we worked on holidays, but we were also given four hours paid time off to go shopping in December.
