I Am A Teacher 's Helper

As a young child, I was always drawn towards the field of health care. I remember reading about the many options that are held within it and wondering what path it would lead me on. Neonatal nursing was something that always came into my mind, but it was often pushed to the side by people and teachers who thought I should become a pediatrician instead. This became a real struggle for me, but as I grew up and began researching and exploring the health care field I came to a decision for myself. I came to the realization that everyone was wrong. I didn’t want to be a doctor at all. This sudden burst of independence from what everyone else wanted was the first step to reaching my end goal. Along with this, an accelerated education, volunteer

Caring for others has always been a passion of mine, and becoming a nurse has always been my dream. While my dream has turned reality, I can say that nursing has blessed me with the opportunity to not only be a servant to those in my community, but it has also allowed me to be of some comfort to patients and their loved ones during their darkest and most vulnerable moments. Nursing offers a variety of opportunities, where the only restrictions are the ones we set for ourselves. As for myself, all things are possible, for if I want it, I strongly believe it’s already mine. The depths that I will go to reach the latitude of success that I so desire is boundless.

Becoming a Certified Nursing Assistant was the biggest challenge I’ve ever taken on. My decision to become a nursing assistant started when I was in ninth grade. My class went on a field trip to the high school and we took a tour to the Health Occupational Students of America classroom. As I walked into the room, I knew right there that it was the class for me. My instructors, Mrs. Livings, and Mrs. Jorgensen were fantastic, and never failed me as a health care

To start, I first gained interest and exposure in the field of health care early in my academic life while attending Clara Barton High School of the Health Professions. During that time I participated in the Nursing Assistant Certification Program, where I had the opportunity to train at Kings County Hospital Center in various departments and the center for nursing and rehabilitation. Throughout the

“Definition of a nurse: To go above and beyond the call of duty. The first to work and the last to leave. The heart and soul of caring. A unique soul who will pass through your life for a minute and impact it for an eternity. An empowered individual whom you may meet only for a 12-hour period, but who will put you and yours above theirs”-Anonymous. For the past year and a half, I have volunteered at Blaire E. Batson Children’s Hospital. It has been an amazing experience! My passion for the medical field and career of nursing has been magnified. I know without a doubt that nursing is what I want to do for the rest of my life. I long for the opportunity to care for my future patients and their families. I want to touch other people’s lives just as I have witnessed nurses do throughout my time volunteering. God has given me a passion for nursing. With my passion and compassion for others, I know I will be successful if admitted into the BSN program.

It was one of the times when we were starting a new school, in a new house, and a new neighborhood. One of my older sisters, McKenna, was planning to come and visit us down in Texas. I was starting my new school next week, which was also when McKenna was going to be landing in Texas, and something in my head made me panic. My heart was racing and my head with thoughts. I didn't know what to do, I was running up and down the stairs, going to my parents who were on the couch watching So You Think

Growing up around three female nurses in my family has sparked an interest in working in the medical field; being the introvert that I am, I decided that it was best to become a medical records field technician in Surprise Arizona. Being a big part of my life has I was growing up, my Nana and my two aunts Phyllis and Theresa all took upon the same career choice and became nurses. On February 14, 2012 I went with my Nana and my sister to the nursing home where my Nana works and passed out cookies for Valentine’s Day. While I was passing out cookies with my sister, I was able to see how the staff interacted with the patients and helped them if was needed, it made me realize that one day I would like to work somewhere in the medical field, but

Since my first visit to the Doctor I have been fascinated with the world of medicine and the art of nursing. As I have matured it has become apparent to me that becoming a Nurse has become my calling. I am determined to be the

I did not know much about the health care field then but in that moment, I felt as if the health care system failed since the day he was born. This experience made me become eager to be a part of making a difference in the health care world. The lack of managed care caused the life of my nephew, and for this my passion for Science and the need of helping others only manifested because of my experience. My aspirations were to become a Registered Nurse and specialize in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. In my early college years, I also became a part of the UCLA team through an internship program. UCLA Care Extenders allowed me to gain valuable knowledge.As an intern, I did clinical rotations and was able to discover what takes place behind closed doors. However, what lead me into

    I have always had a strong head on my shoulders when it came to school and working. I have worked for everything that I have achieved for myself. At the age of 16, I went to my local vocational school and achieved my Licensed Practical Nursing (LPN) certification the summer after I graduated high school. I then went to Belmont college for their LPN to RN

This week reading has brought back memories of when I was in high school and my first day I started my job as an Instructional Aide. In high school, I was the student sitting in the back of the class hoping the teacher would not call on me to read aloud. I have always struggled with reading comprehension and reading aloud.

With the help of my amazing program director (PLASP staff), I volunteered to play fun games, sports and engage in creative craft making with the PLASP children. Volunteering with PLASP for almost 2 years was a very gratifying experience. And since I love working with children and the youths, working with PLASP proved to be a pleasurable experience. In the PLASP program, I helped create a fun, loving and safe environment for the kids, making sure that they participate wholeheartedly in their daily duties and activities. I became an inspiration and a role model, teaching myself and the children to grow with responsibility, humility and respect. Working with the PLASP children has been a blessing to me for I intend to pursue a career in health sciences, with the goal of becoming a Pediatric Nurse. I am excited to begin a four-year course Seneca at York collaborative nursing program this fall. I long to give back to the community and after I am done my post-secondary schooling in nursing, I intend to use my experience and accomplishments to restore and maintain the health of little children in the community. Finally, Working with PLASP is an awesome because I gained great skills and experience on how to work effectively with

Post-secondary teachers instruct students in a variety of academic subjects. Post-secondary teachers also conduct research and publish books ("Postsecondary Teachers"). Most importantly post-secondary teachers help students gain knowledge in a specific course. Although the process of becoming a post-secondary teacher is long, to become a professor, a person needs to have a high level of education, be conscious of job marketability, and the end result will be rewarding.

Although I have experience working with children in a health-related environment I am still relatively new to the role of a nurse and would require more practice and learning regarding paediatric nursing. I hope that the knowledge and skills that I have now, aid in my growth and development as I transfer them from other areas of my life into my work experiences.
