My Experience

this is very wordy, and long, and possibly confusing. but, i really hope it makes some sense, because this concept/idea/human experience is one that i’ve been itching to share/process for a while.

One of my personal experiences that I had was when my family decided to move from New Jersey to Florida. I never planned on moving with them but my mother basically forced me into moving with them. It wasn’t really all that moving stuff because the new house was actually pretty nice, it was just I had all my friends there and I was doing well in school. Nothing I said convinced my mother so after a week of packing we was off to Florida. The first week being there was a horrible week. Nothing was going right for me, I missed the school bus for a whole week, dropped my milk on my new shoes, and tripped over nothing in lunch. It was just trying to move back but parents always have this life lesson speech about trying to make new friends and try to get used to being here until we move again. It’s been about a month since we moved to Florida and I met about zero friends but I got used to living here since I’ve found something that interested me as an after school hobby and that was fishing. There’s barley any lakes or ponds in New Jersey so fishing wasn’t really something you do as a time waster. I usually fished right after I got home but on that day it was rainy and it wasn’t really a good time to fish so I just decided to practice my free shots until it started raining hard. I think I was outside for about 20minutes and suddenly a couple kids from my new school asked if they can shoot

My ambition is to graduate St. Francis College as a Registered Nurse with a Bachelor’s degree in the upcoming years. Although majoring in nursing will not be easy, I feel I am prepared for the challenge. At this time in my life I cannot see myself majoring in anything else. As a young girl, with a mother working in the medical field, I was always fascinated going to work with her. Working in a doctor’s office these past two and a half years myself has given me much experience with patients and has made it more to clear to me that this is what I want to pursue as a career. I wish to be a nurse because I seem to get a feeling of warmth and internal satisfaction when helping those in need. I have begun to learn that medicine is not the only cure for people’s ailments. It is the care they receive by those around them whether it is in a hospital, nursing home, or even their own home. This is where I believe that I can make a great difference in people 's lives by helping them recover.

For as long as I could remember, I have wanted to be a nurse. Whenever my younger brothers or my parents were sick, I always tried my best to take care of them. My mother and father called me “The Little Nurse” because whenever someone wasn’t feeling well or hurt I was the first person to try and help them. In high school, I participated in an internship at Detroit Medical Center (DMC) and was apart of Women of Tomorrow, thanks to the help of my counselor. My parents asked me what type of nurse did I want to be. I wasn’t to sure so I did my research and I decided that I want to become a nurse anesthetist. To reach my goals, I realize that I must pursue a seven year college education. I am very excited about my future and feel that with the

MY personal experience was visiting Busch Gardens for the first time in Tampa Florida. The scenery was extremely beautiful and a very playful place to enjoy during the holidays. As I walked in the smell of different food grabbed my attention. The food court was very clean, but I couldn’t eat yet due to the fact that I wanted to hop on the roller coaster. The roller coasters were so huge it was nothing compared to the fun spot in Orlando Florida. My skin started to shiver because they were going too fast, people were screaming and I wasn’t sure if it was due to happiness or being scared.

In high school I decided that I wanted to work in the medical field but it wasn’t until I was a freshmen in college that I had decided that nursing was the field in which I wanted to study. In College I had taken an anatomy and physiology class that had struck my interest and although I had some struggles in the class because of the amount of criteria there was to cover I spent extra time studying and talking with the professor but most of all I enjoyed it. There was so much about the human body that fascinated me which helped close my decision on becoming a nurse. Although I had applied and talked to a few colleges about their nursing programs there was something off about the people and the program. A friend of mine was hospitalized at Medical Center of the Rockies and after many visits with him I began to talk to some of his nurses among the most caring was a girl who had graduated from Colorado Christian University. She had a smile on her face the entire time and never

There’s has been many educational opportunities in my life but the most significant opportunity that I had that really impacted me was partnering and being able to intern with Sharp as a highschool student. As a student going to a high school focused on the medical field, I have gotten many advantages in my education for interning as a nurse at Sharp Grossmont hospital. I’ve connected with many inspiring and great people along the way and I have learned more about healthcare from the many preceptors I have collabed with. While I was interning as a nurse on the 5west area, it really open my mind up to determine if nursing was what I truly wanted and go along with. As the years went by, I have not only intern in the nursing area but also in the

Nonetheless, I have never been as driven to learn and make a difference and to apply myself until now and discovering my passion for nursing has started a fire in me I have never felt before. During most of my high school career I have never really taken schooling seriously, something I still regret. But, after talking to family friends who are involved in the medical field and learning more about it all, I am doing my best to catch up and better myself. I am excited what this has done for me and even more excited to see where it takes

I have been a nurse for a little over a year. Before getting into nursing school, I worked as a CNA at Loyola University Medical Center. It was here that I decided that I was ready to become a nurse. I worked on a cardiovascular unit that mostly worked with heart and lung transplant patients. I saw firsthand what the science and art of nursing can do for not only a patient, but their family too. Personally, I enjoy helping others. It was the main reason for becoming a nurse. I remember watching nurses on television and wanting to be like them. I knew then that these women in their white uniforms and white caps that they were important. I knew that people looked up to them, and that they made an impact on people’s lives. After graduating nursing school and passing my NCLEX-RN I found a job at my current position as a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Nurse at John H. Stroger Hospital of Cook County. Knowing that the care I am providing is helping others gives me peace of mind. My future goal is to become a

All my life nurses have surrounded me. My mother was diagnosed with Hodgkin Disease while I was in the womb. She spent most of her early motherhood life in a Galveston, TX hospital. I also, in 2006 was diagnosed with cervical cancer and was given the proper care to battle the cancer and become a survivor. The flourishing of my desire for nursing was also very clear when I experienced how to care for another person. My cousin who has different disabilities has been ill since an infant. All her life I have cared for her when I could and met numerous of nurses who are by her side twenty-four seven. The surrounding of nurses and their environment that I have been exposed to, has assured me that this desire I have to further my education in this pathway is the right choice. I hope to attain the proper education to gain closeness to the people in my community through this profession that I have a strong desire for.

Nursing is an exhilarating career that involves medicine and still allows someone to have a family, to have a life. The thought of studying a profession in the medical field has appealed to me since I was a young child. As I got older, I realized that studying medicine is very rigorous and to be a surgeon, my original goal, would equate to me working all day almost every day for years straight. At that point I was crestfallen, I had dreamed of studying medicine from early adolescence but I would lose what is most crucial to me, time with my family. My family is not very large, but it is very close knit. It was in the presence of my family that I realized nursing may very well be the choice for me to study. During my time in high school, I have

Over the last year I have spent numerous nights in the hospital due to a medical condition I had. During my time spent in the hospital I have had countless good and bad experiences with the nursing staff. Due to my experiences, I was able to come to the conclusion that I not only want to be a nurse but also what kind of a nurse I would like to become. With that decision made, I started looking into going back to school, and finally settled on Colorado Christian University as my school of choice. My experiences over the past year have created a strong urge to not only finish school, but also to give my very best in every class I take. From a young age I knew I wanted to go into the nursing field. Unfortunately, one situation after another seemed

I have known I wanted to be a nurse since I was a child; I was always drawn to the idea of helping others. In 2015, I graduated from Westchester Community College, with my Associates Degree in Nursing, right after graduation I started working as Pediatric Palliative Care Nurse. I have always enjoyed being around children and was drawn to pediatrics right away. I love being able to make a difference in theses children’s and their families lives, it’s what I believe nursing is all about.

I want to be able to go into work and be faced with a new, exciting challenge every day. I enjoy being a mentor and caregiver for individuals because it makes me feel like I am giving back to society. Nursing will allow me to fulfill my desires to learn, educate, and advocate. The field of medicine has many branches that can be studied, which will permit me to increase my knowledge. Another appealing aspect of being a nurse is that they give and receive gratification simultaneously. In my perspective, this is satisfying because moral values such as, appreciating life, empathy, or listening skills can be enhanced through involvement. I am prepared to thrive as a nurse because of the passion and devotion that I have already formed about this

When I've told other people of my plan to become a nurse, some have said “Why be a nurse? Doctors make better money.” For me, nursing is not about money, it is a calling. Nursing answers my desire to help people. Thereafter, every time I visited the children’s hospital, it was so heartwarming to see the patients familiar faces again.
