Clara Barton High School Case Study

Beth Walton and I were able to interview Jeff Waldron the Principal at Newton High School.

“Why do you want to be an LPN?” is a question that I, along with all of my peers have been asked many times since starting nursing school. I have heard countless students share their intriguing stories about having generations of nurses in their family, or having experienced a traumatic event in their life which led them to choose this career path ... I on the other hand am the first person in my entire family who has attended college; let alone taken on something as challenging as nursing school. I don’t have a “cool” story to share about a traumatic experience in my life that led me to becoming a nurse. I simply want to be an LPN to make a difference.

Since I was in the 10th grade, I knew I wanted to pursue my education at Mount Vernon Nazarene University for nursing. Furthermore, my first college visit on MVNYOU day confirmed my decision. I greatly treasure the close knit community and the Christian based morals. To get a head start on my journey, my sophomore year I applied and was accepted into the Career and Technology Education Center of Licking County for Clinical Care (C-TEC), a nursing based program. In the duration of my last two years of high school, instead of simply graduating with my diploma, I graduated with my STNA, CET, CPT, CPCT, and my CPhT. I have gained a knowledge of the basic fundamentals of nursing. I am an active member of many different clubs and organizations supporting

It is my fervent belief that by taking up a graduate degree in Family Nursing, I will be able to contribute more to my community and be of service to people who are in need of my skills. I have learned how to be hardworking and committed, and these are two of the greatest values that I intend to contribute to the institution. My 21 years in the nursing profession, five years CNA, two years LPN, and 14 years RN experience, are proof of my dedication to the field, and with the life experience that I have had, I believe I am prepared to face anything that comes my way.

I have many reasons to return to school for bachelors’ program. One of the reasons I returned to school is to advance my career beyond being staff nurse. After I graduated from a two-year community college as an RN, I realized that I have a potential to advance my career from staff nurse to nurse practitioner. When I was in nursing school, I thought I never back to school because nurse school was so stressful. Nursery school was the hardest thing I ever did, I remembered those days.

I have an Associate Degree in nursing from Queensborough Community College. I had a Bachelor in Environmental Engineering already and I was looking for the fastest and most inexpensive way to become a nurse when I started the nursing program at Queensborough Community College. When I graduated from the nursing school, I thought that ADN would be enough to be a nurse and I could start working as soon as I got the license. Soon after passing the board, I started realized that it was very hard to find any job as a newly graduated nurse with ADN. I got pieces of advice from professors and decided to go to Molloy College to study Family Nurse Practitioner. After three courses there, even though it would be the fastest way to be an FNP with other Bachelor degree, I realized that I had no experience to share in as a nurse. I sat down and seriously thought about what I like to do.

The Carl Hayden Community High School was established at Phoenix in Arizona in 1957. It was well regarded and the provided of an off-site equestrian program. In fact, the number of the ethnicity students that attended to the Carl Hayden Community High School was the Caucasians are more than Hispanics students. However, this school got the report of ethnicity number of the students had changed by an increase the 92 percent of the Hispanic students. Moreover, the neighborhood is a nearby the school had abandoned and the some of the roads had an unpaved dirty. On the other hand, this school building had described was the mostly drab in the late of 1960s boxes. Furthermore, this school had a dress code for the females and males students. The females

On Wednesday, April 12, 2017, I, Officer McDaniel #147, while at James Coble Middle School, located at 1200 Ballweg Rd, Arlington, TX, I was approached by Assistant Principal Myers, Laura, W/F, DOB 02/16/1968, in reference to a cell phone screen that was broke by another student.

Clara Barton had many accomplishments throughout her life in all her endeavors. Her story begins at a young age and continues into her career as a valuable individual saving lives as a nurse. The accumulation of events and contributing factors that Barton experienced from her childhood into her adult years shaped her into the nurse remembered in history and helped mold the face of nursing for the future.

Rancho Minerva Middle School (RMMS) is located in the rural area within the Vista Unified School District (VUSD). A major issue occurring at RMMS is corresponding to sixth to eighth grade male students being recipients of ineffective punishments as a result of their disruptive behavior. Students’ disruptive behavior refers to those who engage in altercations, disrupt teachers during instruction time, and become involved in substance use. The ramifications for students with disruptive behaviors are followed by disciplinary approaches such as expulsions, suspensions, Saturday school, and after school detention. Such approach has resulted in students achieving lower academics which can also increase the chances of engaging in risky behavior outside the school. According to RMMS School Accountability Report Card (SARC), in the 2014-2015 school year, RMMS reported 10.4% suspensions which demonstrated to be higher than the previous years. Additional factors that have had an effect on suspension rates are the limited in house services provided to this particular population at RMMS. Though RMMS does not have an appointed mental health provider or personnel to assist with mental health support on site, students are granted the opportunity to be referred to outside providers/therapist for counseling services. However, this has been a major limitation for our

I chose to complete my senior project with a nurse at the Cleveland Clinic to assess hands on whether I would find success in my own future as a nurse and eventually as a nurse practitioner. Initially, I was rather anxious that I would not be able to endure the long hours of fast paced thinking and caretaking. However, my advisor reassured me that this is something that will come with experience and even though I was only shadowing for two weeks I found myself quickly adapting to the rigor required of a nurse. Working with my advisor, Allie Rhoten I gained insight from her and other nurses on the best way to pursue a career as a nurse practitioner (NP). They recommended to me that I finished my BSN in four years then enter a workplace that

When I graduated from high school, I had a different career path, which was to become a physician assistant. I obtained my Bachelor of Science from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2006 and then attended Virginia Tech in the fall of 2006 to take prerequisites prior to applying to graduate school. I was attending Virginia Tech when the April 16, 2007 school shootings occurred. This was an especially difficult time being surrounded by so much heartache. However in the face of this heartache was hope, hope in humanity. The community came together in such despair to provide comfort and healing. The incident really made me evaluate my life and as a result, I decided to take a break from school. I had minimal health care work experience at this time and wanted to gain knowledge before starting graduate school. This life-changing experience and break led to my discovery of nursing. A year later I began the registered nursing diploma program at Sentara College of Health Sciences. Nursing school was the first time I had hands-on patient care. It was not until I had my license and began working on the floor did I truly start blossoming as a nurse. I have grown substantially and have never felt as comfortable as I do being a nurse. It validates my decision

This issue is one that San Luis Obispo High School recently faced. San Luis Coastal Unified School District has two high schools, San Luis Obispo High School (SLOHS), operating under a traditional trimester schedule, and Morro Bay High School (MBHS), running on a semester-long block schedule. The district claimed that the current schedule at SLOHS was inequitable to all students within the district, as students at SLOHS are given more opportunities to take a variety of courses when compared to MBHS students. The district suggested that SLOHS propose an alternative schedule (not the trimester) or accept the "fallback" traditional semester schedule for the next school year.

For nearly 24 years, I have known that I wanted to become a nurse practitioner. During that time, I was newly married, uninsured, and extremely broke. I had gone to a rural health clinic for some much-needed care and was treated with a dignity and respect that I had never experienced before. It was then I knew that I wanted to provide that same type of care for others in need. It was several years later before I had the opportunity to go to nursing school. Once finished, I went to work right away and greatly enjoyed being at the bedside helping those in need, but still had that desire to continue my education. However, I wanted my children to be older and for me to have several years of nursing experience before

When I was a child, I knew that I wanted to be a nurse just like my mom. I started preparing myself by majoring in science, math, and typing in high school. I knew that these classes would one day prepare me for college. When I enter college at the University of Memphis after high school, I take all the prerequisites needed for the nursing program. Later, I entered nursing school at Baptist School of Nursing and I was well on my way to becoming a nurse. When I got in nursing school, I lost focus of why I was there and failed the nursing program. I decided to continue my education at Shelby State Community College (Southwest Community College) by retaking my biology classes to enter SSCC night nursing
