Pursuing a degree in my current field was not the first choice I had. When I was a child I wanted to be a teacher and then in high school I wanted to be a nurse. When I went to college I was not accepted into the nursing program because I did not have the right grades to get in, so I was undecided for two years. During, those two years in college it was very eye opening to me because I realized that being a nurse was not what I wanted. I did not want to do all the science and the math, but I chose a major with just that. When I decided that I wanted to pursue a degree in nutrition I did not know yet what I wanted to do with the degree just that I wanted to know more about food. When I was in college I found out that I was allergic to raw fruits …show more content…
My studies deal with every population group and all the knowledge that comes with it. My studies now are really helping with my future career goals because for each class that I take they are all connected in some way. I get the best information out of people I talk to. I plan to use my studies to achieve my future goals by getting out there and being active in the community. I am not a person that likes to volunteer but the classes I have taken have been an inspiration for me to love volunteering. The classes that I take in school have me interacting with different people everyday and figuring out what I could do to make their lives easier. Researching different topics and information that I have learned from people helps my knowledge grow because everyone has something important to say. My studies are getting me ready to understand how to conduct a proper interview, how to teach people what I know, and how to service people that cannot get to a hospital, so you must come to them. My studies will not be over when I get my nutrition degree because I also want to get a psychology degree because nutrition and psychology go hand and hand. These degrees would give me a detail on how to deal with patients in this
Leading You to a Healthy Lifestyle: Nurse Practitioners. I have imagined myself in several different careers that have interested me as I've grown up, from styling hair to being a fashion designer, and even a professional singer. Now, even though it is crazy to believe time has flown by so fast, I am at the age where I am deciding what I want to major in. Even though all of those professions I listed above were very interesting, there was one job when I was growing up that I knew would be a stable and interesting profession: a nurse practitioner. I have always been interested in health sciences and seeing as though I was familiar with a doctor’s office/hospital setting due to being born with a birth defect, I felt that nurse practitioner was the most suitable job for me.

To be a nurse means more than being a caregiver; it means being selfless, compassionate and committed to serving patients and their families with top-notch care. Nursing is also a passion and requires a deep desire to care for others both physically and emotionally. My decision to be a nurse stems from this deep desire to care for others. I enjoy helping people and doing what I can to enhance the lives of those around me.I’ve always wanted to be a nurse ever since I was a little girl.Nursing is a lifetime career. It is not just a job. It is a state of being. Nursing is one of the most respected occupations. Nurses have the trust and respect of their clients and others. They are loved and appreciated by all.
You may hear the words “I've always wanted to be nurse” abundantly, right? Well, for me, waking up and knowing that I wanted to be a nurse is not actually, how it went. As a young girl I have always known that I had a passion for helping others, however, I could not particularly distinguish between how I wanted to help others. What I did know, is that I wanted to go beyond the everyday staple of helping. Nonetheless, not until years to come, I was able to gain knowledge through experiences to find my purpose, nursing.
Both my current job and are dream jobs are in the medical field they are very similar yet different. For example, my job now is a certified nursing assistant and my dream job is to become a registered nurse. Both jobs consist of taking guardianship of people providing hands-on work, comfort care, and compassion. My dream is to further my career from a nurse assistant and become a nurse that does more for people in the world.
Becoming a Professional Nurse remains a mystery up until this day. Consequently, the answer is still unknown. Furthermore, to figure out the answer why I became a professional nurse starting from the beginning is best. Hopefully, an answer will be provided by the completion of this paper.
I have chosen the nursing profession because, I care deeply for others and their well-being. When individuals enter any health care setting such as a hospital, doctor’s office, clinic, or nursing home they are there because some type of injury or illness is occurring. After checking in at the reception desk, in most of these circumstances, the patient explains his or her ailments firstly to a nurse. The nurse must be able to accurately obtain and record vital signs, while paying close attention to the objective symptom’s the patient is displaying, as well as listening carefully to the subjective symptom’s the patient is experiencing. Also, it is essential that the nurse be able to properly record this information for the medical chart and the Doctor. The role of a nurse is very important and requires extreme sacrifice, hard work, and long hours. In addition, it is paramount that a nurse display professionalism in their attitude, dress, speech, and conduct. Nurses have the obligation of performing their job duties at all times, and have knowledge of their nursing training.
When I first thought of what I wanted to do with my life after college, the first thing I thought of was helping people. The next step in deciding what I wanted to do with my life was to exam how I could accomplish this goal. I started pondering and I was thinking about how much I love to take care of my body. Health care and personal hygiene has always been an important factor in my life. So I decided to major in Health Science. With this major, I will be able to further my education in ways to be healthy and possibly learn how to help others. I decided that being a health physician or nutritionist was something that I was really interested in. This is where communication studies came in. I figured that if I minor in communication studies, I could improve my oral and written communication to better help in my future of nutrition.
As I stand on the cusp of high school graduation, I can't help but feel a mixture of excitement and fear for what the future has in store for me. While I am sad to leave behind the familiar halls of my high school, I am eager to embark on the next chapter of my life. I have big dreams and aspirations for my future, and I am determined to do whatever it takes to achieve them. My goal is to become a neonatal nurse, working with newborn babies and their families.
It’s been my desire, longing for a nursing career since I was in my primary and secondary school. At the age of 12, I began to look after children and baby-sitting then, from there, I gained the understanding of how to deal with children. Nursing is one of the highly demanding careers that bring new challenges every day and it comes with various rewards and a real sense of job satisfaction. I chose nursing because it is a profession where you never really finish learning. It has been my dream job since my tender age. Seeing nurses visiting my school treating students, immunisation, teaching us about health and sexual health issues, this encouraged me. My goal and desire at that age have been to help people within the Health sector. That is how; I decided to go to college where I am currently doing my Access to Higher Education Diploma (Science), which involves Biology and Chemistry. I chose this pathway because I want to gain the relevant skills and knowledge of my career to be. As someone who wants to become a nurse, I found biology as an important role in the delivery of client car...
In my post secondary studies, many people are interested in what I want to do after I graduate and where I want to go in life. It is far rarer to have people ask the question of why. Why do I want to pursue a career in the medical field? Why do I want to spend my life helping people? Why do I want to attend the nursing program at Clarkson? My answer to the big question of why is not a simple one-faceted answer. I want to be a nurse for a myriad of reasons. In this reflection, I will touch on my long-lasting love for a career in medicine, my experience in school that solidified my desire to become a nurse, and the path that led me to apply to Clarkson College.
Pursuing nursing is my passion as it is my ambition to be there to help and serve others which I know will bring value to my own life as well. Whether that is in a position of health promotion and teaching kids about stress relief at a health fair like I was able to this last fall. Or, being there when they are in a health crisis I want to get to know my clients so I can best serve them by truly taking the time to get to know their individual needs. Staying true to my values of faith, family, and serving others my career goals aim to look at the bigger picture. Through pursuing my passion of nursing my desire is to continually learn from experiences, take on opportunities to learn to be a good leader, and continue to serve my
After spending 4 days in the OB section and being hospitalized multiple times throughout my pregnancy, I wouldn’t have made it without my nurse, Anna. I always knew I wanted to have a job in the medical field but because of her, I have decided that I want to also become a labor and delivery nurse. Restrictions I am hoping that in the near future I can become a labor and delivery nurse. But just like any other career choice, this decision comes with restrictions. The main thing that is blocking my path of this career choice is the amount of education needed.
I have always been told that I have a big heart because I am willing to take care of anyone or anything that I see. I would love to become a nurse because when I was around seventeen years old I had to take on the role of taking care of my grandparents. It all started in 1998 when my grandfather was diagnosed with lung cancer and dementia. My grandfather had “sundowners,” which is a form of dementia. With this illness, a person is unsettled in their mind and body. They need to be moving and busy doing something to feel right. A few years later my grandmother was diagnosed with stage 4 rectal cancer. It was hard for her to do much of anything, with the house work and with grandpa. So this is when I began to help out more.
My choice of nursing as a career was inspired by past experiences that made me appreciate the field and its virtues. My mother was an obstetrician-gynecologist in China. I grew up having spent lots of time in her hospital. The medical field really appealed to me. Nevertheless, my mom thought that being a teacher was a better career choice for me. As a result, I worked as a high school teacher till my husband and I came to the U.S. to pursue our post-graduate education. I started my retail business in Madison, Wisconsin after I earned my master’s degree in Organization Development. My life appeared to have nothing to do with my childhood medical dream. However, things changed when both of my sons were diagnosed with Autism. The successful experience
