My Career Plan In Nursing

Throughout these years, I have been faced many challenges. I started with a newly creative position right afterward graduated from college, decided to start a second career as a nurse, transition from a student nurse to a registered nurse, and lost my love one.

I helped internal medicine department in chronic disease management, preventive medicine management, protocol development,

In addition to this, I found out some of the patients was uninsured or underinsured. They were experiencing financial difficulty to get their medicines and medical equipments especially if they were on multiple medications. Therefore, I discussed with my clinical director to expand their original medication assistant program. I reached local pharmacy and searched online drug stores to get a discounted price for a list of standard medication and medical equipments such as Glucometer and blood pressure monitor. I also promoted the medication assistant program at the community workshops and good health day. The program initially started with four to six patients. The number of the patient enrolled the program was fourfold six months after the program expanded. Our patients appreciated our hard work very
