Lien is a Vietnamese 43-year-old recently divorced registered professional nurse (RN) who has been working on a 40-bed medical surgical department in a private hospital for about 12 years.

Her colleagues are respectful to personal problems, and she is even comfortable to ask for 3 days off because of her marriage problems, and she is confident that her colleagues and also managers will approach her considerately and give the time she needs to solve her personal problems
