HDFS Student Mentor Report

My first professional job was in the health care field. I started off this career by taking a diploma of nursing . My two sisters are registered nurses currently

On August 2015, I started the RN-BSN program with the Transition to Professional Nursing as my first course. I took one class at the time because I was working as a full time nurse at the same time. I did not take a break and started a new class each start date because I wanted to complete this program as soon as possible. The journey has been a long, hard road and the stress was constant and many times I felt that I could not complete it; it has been a difficult but very satisfying journey.

I then went to Belmont college for their LPN to RN

Attached is a completed application for the mentoring program I would like to pursue. Not sure if I have overstepped my boundary, but I have discussed this with my RA, Nick Lalpuis, and he supports the proposal.

I have transitioned from a careless teenager to a determined, and focused young woman during my time at PHCC. I started my journey back in 2003 after graduating from high school. My focus was on nursing, and I had already taken the CNA class, and passed state board before graduating high school. All I knew was that I wanted to be a nurse. However, my mind was not set on school, I was in my “young and dumb” phase of life. In addition, the flexibility that college offered

As I am more advanced student now and I decided to get my Associate's Degree in General Studies and Associate Degree in Nursing after that.

I studied in college for 4 years to obtain a degree of Bachelor of Science in Nursing and took the Nurse Licensure Exam to become a Registered
