Becoming A Nurse Practitioner

Unfortunately I have no related work experience in a heathcare office or facility; however, I hope to start working in a heathcare office or facility within the next 2 years. 2 years from now the career goal that I have set for myself is to be graduating as a Licensed Pratical Nurse (LPN). After graduation I would like to start working in at a hospital as a licensed pratical nurse while also continuing my education with nursing.

After graduating Anacortes High school I plan on attending a four year private liberal arts university. I will be pursing a Bachelors of Science in Nursing leading to a career as a Registered Nurse. My main interest is a specialty in pediatrics. Following a month stay at Children's Hospital after enduring emergency surgery and a difficult recovery I decided nursing is what I'm meant to do. The nurses inspired me, and I hope that I can help a family and child in the same way that they helped

I will be steps closer to my aspiring goals. However, most importantly the graduate program will help me reach my primary goal of impacting the health of the community as a whole. My dream of becoming a Family Nurse Practitioner will allow me to help patients increase their overall health outcomes while managing their primary health concerns. I see myself specifically working as a Family nu Nurse Practitioner with different population across the life span from newborn to geriatrics in a family clinic aiding those with less access to healthcare resources. Being working as RN in the hospital setting, I witnessed numerous family and community members fall susceptible to diseases that could have been prevented or better managed with the correct help. As a Family Nurse Practitioner, I want to effectively assess, diagnose, educate, communicate, follow-up, and provide personalized holistic care. As I mentioned before becoming a family nurse practitioner will give me the professional latitude to diagnose, prescribe, and manage the overall care of a patient including the emphasis on prevention and education throughout the patient's

I believe that Nursing is the perfect major where I can help people by caring for their health and which will ultimately affect them their whole lives. I believe a Nurse Practitioner is able to make such a difference in our lives because they are not just a Nurse but in a similar way like a Doctor. Nurse Practitioners are able to care more for the patients than a regular Nurse. Attending the UCLA School of Nursing will help me become a step closer to becoming a Nurse Practitioner. The school is very prestigious and ranked as one of the top nursing schools in the country and is conveniently around my area. I will be able to give back to my community after completing my degree. I will also get a high-level education and cause a positive impact in the healthcare system around my community. I will be able to develop skills that will help me be able to work in a variety of environments and assist those in need. The skills that I will develop will help me develop as a leader and person by being able to communicate with different type of people and be able to cause an impact in their lives. I will be able to work hands-on, especially because the school is involved throughout the community with the clinics and hospitals. I would be given the opportunity to accomplish all this without having to go far from

Have you ever closed your eyes and your dreams painted a miraculous picture that it seemed too good to be true ? I close my eyes and I picture myself with a crisp cotton white lab coat with a burgundy stethoscope draped over my shoulders. The patient in front of me hears the “ clicking” sound of my pen as I scribble a prescription down on my clipboard. My dream is to become a Nurse Practitioner that specializes in Forensics after I graduate with my Bachelor of Nursing degree. In order, for someone to make their dreams come true, they need three key elements which are perseverance, determination and ambition. I posses all of these characteristics so, I know my dreams will come true.

As I consider why I have chosen to pursue a doctorate degree in nursing and

My plans to attend college to obtain my nursing degree will benefit the communities of Hawaii by retaining the local workforce. I plan to stay in Hawaii and serve my community as a professional registered nurse as opposed to moving to another state and providing my services there. The health and welfare of my community is something I hold near and dear to my heart. To provide healthcare in a rural area is very special as it takes a person with an understanding of how the community functions. After graduating and obtaining my nursing license I plan on working as a staff nurse to gain experience and set a solid foundation in my nursing career. My hope is to gain experience in various different fields

The present healthcare system in the United States (U.S) faces various challenges due to changing demographic, economic and political pressures. The need of primary care provides are increasing as a result of increasing access to healthcare, increasing expenditures, and growing populations of the elderly and chronically ill patients. Even with the plenty of evidences that Nurse Practitioners (NP)are well educated, competent, health care professionals who are able to improve access to high-quality health care and lower health care costs, restrictive practice regulations still exist. The quest for NPs independence practice has surpassed and it became a necessary practice transformation to improve the health of the nation (The National Organization

My name is Kristen Simoneaux, and I am a Sophomore here at Lamar University. I am from Nederland Texas, and I graduated from Nederland High School in 2013. I have lived in Nederland all of my life, and I continue to live here. I am going to Lamar University because it is close to home, and it has an excellent nursing program.

Reflecting over the last eight weeks has really opened my eyes to how much I have learned. Until this class, I thought that each state required the same things to become an Advanced Practice Nurse (APN). I just assumed each state had a board, like the Mississippi board of Nursing. It was really interesting that each state requires different things. I also was not aware that some states allow independent nursing without a collaborator. The state of Mississippi requires that the APN be in collaboration with a physician. I never really thought that this would ever be an option for the state of Mississippi. With that being said, I can understand why physicians would feel threatened with job security. I reside in a rural

My educational intentions and goals are to attend the University of Arizona and earn my Bachelor of Science in Nursing. I then plan on gaining experience in nursing at a local hospital before applying to the Doctor of Nursing Practice program to become a certified registered nurse anesthetist. I plan on becoming a nurse anesthetist to serve those in pain and relieve patients of their pain. I have many life goals because I strive for many opportunities. A few of my life goals are to serve in college preparatory programs as a tutor or a program specialist, give a university commencement address, write a best-selling book, create a high school curriculum guide for students interested in becoming a CRNA, Earn my Bachelor’s and then a Master’s degree, travel, and most importantly advocate educating patients on how to treat their diseases and illnesses for the well-being of patients and care for others.

I am a nursing student. I have a great passion for caring for others. My short term goals are to graduate Riverland Community College with my Associate's Degree in Nursing this December. I plan to work very hard and prepare to take my nursing licensure exam at the beginning of next year to become licensed as a registered nurse. I will then transfer to Metropolitan State University to complete my Bachelor's Degree in Nursing.

I’ve always loved helping people, so when I tore my ACL and saw the painful journey up close, I realized how much I wanted to be a part of other people’s healing process. When I was at the hospital, I had an up close view of these nurses and doctors at work. This got me interested in health sciences. To be able to support others every day seems like the right career for me. In consideration of this interest, will becoming a nurse practitioner fulfill my need to help people?
