Find a Common Interest
At the Hospital: If your hospital has groups or clubs for employees, it could be the perfect way to meet coworkers with similar interests. Volunteer for the hospital’s philanthropy efforts. Or start your own group at the hospital. Finding coworkers with similar interests guarantees that you have something to bond over that’s not just work.
Out of the Hospital: No matter what city you are in, there are people who share your interests. Find the local groups of your interest. Love to bowl? Join a bowling league. Enjoy a good book? Find a book club. Are you an avid runner? Get into a running group. Finding smaller pools of people also allows you to interact with people in a closer, more personal way.
