My full name is Angelica Marie Ramelb Reginaldo, and I am an 18 year old teenager who is still unearthing new discoveries about myself and searching for my purpose in life. In order to get to know me on a personal level, I am going to provide a background information about myself. I was born in the Philippines on February 4, 1999. With the news of my birth, my father was a tiny bit disappointed, because he was expecting a son. However, everything turned out wonderful when my mother became pregnant 3 years after I was born, and my father finally had the son he always dreamt of having. I am my parents’ third daughter, and I was quite the troublemaker. When I attended school in the Philippines, I somehow found myself in the middle of fights, and …show more content…
I did speak to her about which classes I need to take in order to be on track and to meet all the requirements that are needed to get into the nursing program. I have yet to create and discuss a plan with her that will allow me to enter the nursing program on time. I am still a freshman, but my sister told me about the whole process of applying and being accepted in a program. In order to get in the nursing program, I have to apply to UNLV’s or NSC’s nursing program, and attend the nursing information session. I will then take the Test of Essential Academic Skills exam or TEAS. After passing the TEAS exam, I have to practice and prepare myself for an entrance interview. If everything goes well, I will be able to graduate within four years. Furthermore, I just need to survive and get through the nursing program, however I will finish strong and strive to get the best grades. Hopefully, I will be able to achieve my dreams and graduate with my Bachelor of Science in Nursing diploma. If it does not work out, my plan B would be to marry a wealthy man; I am just kidding. All the jokes aside, my real plan B would be to apply to other nursing programs close to my home or to change my major to
I am headstrong in finishing my goal to pursue my education.These circumstances are the reason I started Nursing and going to continue Nursing.Getting an education was very important to me back in 1987 and it still important to me today! I hope to study the bachelor of Nursing course through WGU so that I can continue to accelerate in my Nursing career.
Essay 1: How will you contribute to the mission of the Nurse Corps scholarship program in providing care to underserved communities?
Nursing is a special field of work that requires a well-rounded, dedicated individual with a vast variety of aptitudes such as: patience, empathy, respect, the ability to be detail oriented, creativity, social interaction skills, flexibility, critical thinking skills, and interpersonal skills. All of which I have been fortunate enough to establish and build upon through my education and 9+ years of experience as a certified nurse’s aide. Based upon my knowledge of Molloy’s College Bachelors of Science in nursing dual degree program for second degree students, I believe I would be an excellent fit. I am a hard worker with a considerable amount of experience in providing basic patient care, I demonstrate dedication to the field of nursing and I am prepared for the challenges associated with the
Scholarship, leadership, character, and service are four attributes that define an excellent student. Being in high school, it’s difficult at times to be a leader, show your character, and be involved with voluntary services while being focused on scholarship, but I have managed to do all four numerous times. I am so grateful and excited to have the chance to be a part of the National Honors Society.
My courses and experience has empowered, and has reinforced my determination to pursue a career as a nurse. I am eager and excited about starting nursing school, and having my dream which started as a young girl to come full circle. I am convinced I am a good candidate because I have the innate drive to complete the program. I am willing to learn and use those skills and knowledge acquired to provide something meaningful to the society and humanity. I have the personal determination to face the challenges and rigors of nursing school. With hard work, perseverance, and determination I believe I have the essential character to be successful as a nursing student and an excellent quality nurse in the near future. A degree in nursing paves ways for other degrees to emerge especially for those interested in furthering their education in health care. I am committed to continue to pursed advanced degree in nursing ultimately becoming a nurse practitioner. . In the next five to ten years from now, I want to write articles and books about nursing and healthcare related. Therefore, I believe that if I improve myself further positively, I will grow from strength to strength and one day my paper will be read in one of the prestigious newsletters, journals, and textbooks. I know the sky is my starting
When I began this journey I knew that Nursing was all I wanted to do and in order to succeed and do well in nursing school, it was going to require a ton of devotion and sacrifice. Nursing school did not come without its challenges, not only did we have to deal with going to class, clinicals, studying for exams, but we also had to add in the factors of jobs, family, marriages, children, sickness and our daily life. But our instructors encouraged us and pushed us to keep going, and for that we are grateful because we all made a decision to stick with it, and here we are today. It seems unimaginable that just a year ago this journey was just beginning, but here we are today a year later,
I will begin my education at Germanna in the fall of 2017 and later transfer to a university to get my bachelors. Pushing myself towards my bachelors can impact my future greatly. Attending Germanna’s nursing program will take about 3 years in total. I have a semester of prerequisites that I have to take before I can even apply to their nursing program. After that semester, there is an application process that everyone applying has to go through. If accepted into the program, I will be attending for two years as a full time student. In that time, I will earn my education and prepare myself for the state test that Virginia provides to all students earning their degree as RNs. After passing the state test and completing my courses at Germanna, I will graduate as a Registered Nurse. In my last year of Germanna’s program, I will have options to specialize in a field of nursing. In that time, I will learn everything and anything about becoming a great labor and delivery
During my undergraduate years in college I wasn’t quite sure what I wanted to become when I “grew up”. I would study various professions and never felt like anything fit for me. One evening I sat down with my aunt, a nurse, and I was talking to her about how I couldn’t decide on a major and how frustrating it was to be in college feeling as if I did not have any direction. She looked at me with complete surprise on her face and said, “You aren’t applying for nursing school?” I stared at her for a moment because I was confused as to why she would ask me that. She chuckled and proceeded to tell me that she had always assumed that I would be a nurse because I spent several years of my life taking care of my 3 year old cousin who had cancer. For three years I was his caregiver and it had never occurred to me that I could make a living caring for people. I then spent countless hours researching nursing and what exactly nurses did. This was it! I had finally found what I wanted to do for the rest of my life! It took no time at all to know that I wanted to specialize in pediatrics. Throughout my clinical experiences in nursing school I have immensely enjoyed working on the Pediatric units as well as the Nursery. I am now absolutely certain that I am meant to be a pediatric nurse. Cook Children’s is recognized as a Magnet-designated hospital and is one of the best children’s hospitals in the US. Being a Cook Children’s nurse resident would allow me to fulfill my passion and dream of pediatric nursing. I am interested in a nurse residency at Cook Children’s because of its excellent reputation in patient satisfaction, standard of care, and community involvement. A residency at Cook Children’s would allow me to gain more experience and know...
Becoming a nurse is probably my most noteworthy achievement. Neither of my parents or any family member have ever been to college. My family was never in the best life circumstances of me leaving for college. Yet, I was privileged enough to be able to put myself through school financially, by working various jobs. Being able to achieve my Bachelor's degree from an accredited school is a great achievement I am proud of. Becoming a nurse was the easy part though, the relationships that developed through my experiences have become my most meaningful and difficult achievements. Day in and day out I see people at their worst. People are stressed, hurt and afraid. I love being able to give them strength, hope and compassion. This relationship works both ways though. Patients', their families and their lives have taught me so much. The experiences nursing has given have become my most meaningful achievements. My goal to pursue advanced practice nursing will only further these achievements. I hope to encourage people more, teaching them how to take control of their lives in whatever way they see fit. I know I cannot teach passion, but I hope to inspire people by having them witness the passion that I have, passion that I have acquired by watching patients and their experiences. I fully anticipate to keep giving my gift to wherever the
It would be an honor to be considered for admission to the Eleanor Mann School of Nursing. I currently attend the NWACC Nursing program and will graduate on May 13, 2016 with an AS and AAS in Nursing. Obtaining my license immediately after graduation is next objective. My intent for the fall of 2016 is to embark on my journey as a student at the University of Arkansas. The Eleanor Mann School of Nursing offers an intense, rigorous, well-balanced education and that is what I desire. Many graduates from the EMSON program have recommended it; this carries great weight with me as it is based on personal experience. Consequently, my ambition is to attend the RN to BSN online program at EMSON. Upon receipt of my BSN, I intend to purse my DNP in
Nursing excellence is defined in various ways. I believe that nursing excellence is demonstrated when nurses are involved in promoting holistic patient centered care, quality and innovation, education, evidence-based practice, and nursing research. Nursing organizations plays a pivotal role in promoting nursing excellence. For this discussion post, I will be discussing the role of two organizations; the National League of Nursing (NLN) and the Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN), in promoting nursing excellence and nursing practice.
