Andrea Chassen

My guest today worked for Club Med from 1990 to 1992. Her first season was in Club Med Playa Blanca with CDV Andrea Livingstone, as a G.O. Nurse. She is originally from Queens, NY and now lives in the Sunshine State. She went to Club Med as a GM in Haiti and Copper Mountain in the early 70s. She then went to Club Med Cancun as a GM in 1987 and realized that Club Med employed nurses too. Two years later she got the Club Med magazine in the mail and inside was an article called, “Become a G.O.” and that’s what she did. Please help me welcome, Andrea Chassen! Before Club Med, Andrea attended the University of Buffalo and then obtained a master’s in nursing at NYU. Andrea was a Clinical Specialist at a teaching hospital in Philadelphia and had a month to put everything in order before she left for Club Med after her very positive interview. Andrea also worked at Club Med Punta Cana, Sonora Bay, and Eleuthera. Do you like Club Med nursing stories? Well, Andrea has some! Get ready for scorpion and sea urchin stings and a Chief of Village who did his own stitches! What?! If you were an early 90s G.O. you will love this episode!
