My Passion For My Future Career In Nursing

A pediatric nurse would be the career for me because I work well with children and I find that helping children makes me happy. Being a pediatric nurse has many duties and personal characteristics needed; such as working with children and getting along with them easily. Being a pediatric nurse also requires many years of studying and also many costs, but in the end the wages and benefits make up for it. The work setting and employment outlook are looking good for the upcoming years. Having a career as a pediatric nurse requires a lot of responsibilities and duties but I feel that because I am hard working and easily get along with children this would be the right career for me.

The main reason why I knew Pediatric Registered Nursing was for me was through the many years of working with kids, as well as my personal interests and skills. Since I worked with kids, I gained a lot of patience and understanding, I always had a place in my heart for kids. I feel like every kid deserves a home and deserves to be treated the right way and I feel like I can make a difference to a kid’s life whether it’s through their health or just a relationship with them. I always been interest in the whole “working in a hospital environment” and since I was little I always been watching

The tasks of a nurse fascinates me; I have had several opportunities to observe nurses in hospitals and I find their work intriguing. I have always been interested in the health field and performing the jobs of a medical professional. Ever since the age of twelve, I have known I wanted to attend a university and pursue a career in the health field. I have always had an interest in my science courses, specifically biology and chemistry and have excelled in these areas. I want to be able to receive the best education possible and make my parents and community proud. I wish to do more for my community than just being a typical nurse and I will be able to do more by becoming a nurse practitioner.

Pediatric nursing is an important profession to us today. They devote their knowledge and skills to caring for children from infancy through the late teen years. Pediatric nursing does not just give you the opportunity to work with children, but with their families as well. I was inspired to become a pediatric nurse when I was younger. I remember when my little sister had to go to Kids First Pediatric to get a flu shot, my sister was so terrified of the needle she began to cry and try to move away from the nurse. In order for the nurse to calm my sister down she started making my sister laugh by playing peek-a-boo with her so that my sister could get her mind off of the needle. Once my sister was no longer thinking about the needle the nurse told my sister to count with her and on the count of three the nurse gave my sister the flu shot without my sister even noticing it. I found it so unique how a nurse could be playful with kids when they’re scared. I like working with kids so I know that this particular field is perfect for me.

I want to become a nurse because as a baby I had many difficulties in coming to this world. From being eight months premature and breech, my mother had a hard time giving birth to me. She had to fly from the island of Kauai to Oahu to give birth to me and because I was eight months premature I almost didn't survive. I would not be here today if it weren't for the nurses at Kapiolani Medical Center who took care of me and nursed me into a healthy little baby. These nurses helped me fight for my life and when I was discharged, they gave me a little green doll that I still hold onto until this very day. For this reason, I have the desire to work hard and become the neonatal nurse that I always wanted to be. Being a neonatal nurse will give me the opportunity to

I want to be a neonatal nurse because I lost my twin nephews before they were born and because I really enjoy working with babies. I also enjoy the challenges that will come with trying to figure out what needs to be done to care for each baby. I will mainly be working with the physical aspect of the babies because my main concern will be the health of the infants. Some strengths of the job will be that I will constantly be challenged and that I will be able to work with an age group that I love. Some of the challenges will be trying to understand what the infants need and any patient lost will be a huge challenge. Because I will only work with young babies, most parts of the age group are genetics related. At the point they will be at, everything they will be doing is based off instincts. Although the loss of my nephews was a terrible time, their memory has inspired me to pick a career where I can keep other families from feeling the same

The nursing field is an important field and it interests me due to wanting to help other people. I would like to explore my options within the field but I feel compelled to work with children that have disabilities or have developmental delays. I am not sure where I would like to work, a hospital setting may be too stressful but I can gain valuable experience. The beauty of a nursing career is the diversity, and flexibility, there is an abundance of employment opportunities and locations where a nurse can work. This is another reason why I have chosen this career. A nurse may work in a doctor’s office, as a home health nurse, traveling nurse, hospital, nursing home, and critical care. In addition a nurse has many advancement opportunities. I would like to eventually be a nurse practitioner.

When I think of my future, I can’t see myself in any other field besides medical. More specifically, I can not picture myself being anything other than a nurse. Many of my life experiences have began to prepare me to enter into the nursing field.

For as long as I can remember, I have always desired to work in the healthcare field. At an extremely young age, I wanted to become a doctor. Later on in life, I wanted to be a pharmacist. During my sophomore year of high school, I finally decided that I wanted to become a nurse. At this time, I did not know what kind of nurse I wanted to become, but I knew that nursing was my purpose. What I found to be the most captivating was the broadness of the field of nursing. Pursuing this further, I could work in any environment that I longed for. After further researching this particular field, I finally decided that I wanted to be a Neonatal nurse practitioner. Neonatal nurse practitioners “serve as primary caregivers for premature babies and other newborns who require special care due to low birth rate, respitory distress, congenital heart defects or various other abnormalities and disorders”(education-portal).

Nurses make a real and progressive improvement to peoples' lives. The two main reasons why I want to do nursing are because I've consistently had an interest in caring for children/young people. Secondly I've always wanted to work in a very large hospital environment. Child Nursing is the right course for me as I am keen about making a difference to people's lives and nursing is a career that will enable me towards fulfilling this goal. Having been a part of a large family I have learnt to help others and to try and do the best in everything.

The passion I have for helping and caring for an individual is one of the main reasons I chose to pursue a career in nursing. I also have and had many family members with common illnesses of our society. My Father had a cerebrovascular accident in 2008, resulting right side paralysis. My grandmother had Type 2 diabetes. She struggled with this disease for most of her life time. This disease led to many other complications with in the body, resulting her passing away in 2008. Those two particular situations encouraged me more than ever to pursue may career as a nurse. I wanted to understand the disease process and encourage my other family and friends what they could do different to protect themselves from suffering through preventable illnesses.

For now I don’t know what type of nurse I would like to be but if I could do them all, I'm sure I would. I remember when my mom went to the ER and yes, it was an emotional experience but I just couldn't help but look at the excitement that goes on in the ER, the rush, and seeing what the nurses do excites me. I know for sure I love children, to me there minds is just something amazing. I love working with children because seeing them happy and healthy makes my day. Not only children but anybody, making someone's pain go away and giving them hope that things will get better, thats whats makes being a nurse such a wonderful job to pursue. I can’t imagine me doing anything else with my life but being a nurse. I know this is what I am here to do, to help everyone who thinks they won’t make it or doesn't have hope that there is no reason to give up yet and that it’s not the

When I was twelve years old, I felt a strong attraction to the nursing profession. When I further looked into the career and researched the different fields of nursing, I connected with the pediatric oncology field. When making a mental checklist of what I wanted in a career, I found that I sought a profession that offers a great amount of diversity, stability, and personal development. Nursing contains all of these elements such as the opportunity to specialize in a variety of areas, a stable job, and opportunities to mature and cultivate my worldview. The more I researched nursing, talked with nurses, and looked at college programs, the deeper I identified with the profession and wanted to be a part of this growing workforce.

Choosing a career as a pediatric nurse was brought on by past experiences that made me appreciate the field and its merits. I was taught responsibility since early age. My parents have always been depending on me to take care of my sisters and my brothers. I have several goals which divided in different levels. Firstly at a personal level is to seeking to develop myself until I become one of the real leaders in this profession.

The nursing field provides many opportunities across a wide area of interest. It also offers many different opportunities to further your education within the profession, which is very valuable. In addition, nursing provides many different options of hours to work. I think this would be beneficial to me because I would like to have a family one day; depending on what stage of life I was in, regarding my kids, I could decide what is best for my working schedule based on my children. These are some of the reasons I chose to enter into the field of nursing. After I have earned my BSN, I am unsure of what area of nursing I would like to enter into. I think this is one of the great things about nursing, all the different options within the field.
