Personal Statement: I Want To Be A Nurse

Recently I have spent my time researching the paths I would like to take to further my education in the medical field. While trying to discover my path and myself, I have come to the decision of pursuing the career of a Registered Nurse. This decision was not taken lightly, infact it was hard. There are so many things I could be in this world from a doctor to a zoologist and I choose to be a Registered Nurse.

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.

A Nurse Practitioner is a registered nurse that has additional education and training in diagnosing and treating illnesses in specialty areas such as family, geriatric, neonate, or pediatrics. Nurse Practitioners prescribe medication, which usually RN’s cannot do, as well as treat illnesses and administer physical exams. Nurse practitioners have a master's degree or doctorate in nursing and board certification in their specialty. A pediatric NP has higher education, skills, and training in caring for infants, children, and teens than an RN. As licensed nurse practitioners, NPs follow the policy and regulations of the Nurse Practice Act of the state in which they work. As health care shifts away from the traditional hospital setting to within the community, the position and function of the nurse practitioner has changed to the front of

The nursing field gives a person the opportunity to work with and care for elderly, sick, and injured patients. I want to join the registered nurse team because they take on multiple medical settings. Registered nurses are known as RNs. They are responsible for multiple things. Being a RN has a lot of responsibility. The topics I will be covering are: job description, specialties, trends, salary, benefits, and required trainings. These are essential things that a person needs to know before going into nursing school.

Since I can remember I have always had a compassion and natural desire to care for my fellow man. Now having this opportunity, I remain committed to this task. During my nursing career as a Registered Nurse, I allow myself time to grow clinically and to expose myself to a variety of health care emergency situations which continues to be very valuable to me in strengthening my career. It is very fortunate that I have the opportunity to be in a position to where I am today.

I knew I could be a nurse when I watched blood ooze from my brother’s face. His eyes dripping tears, and body shaking from being scared, he did not know what to do. I however, did not flinch once when I wiped the blood off his small face and hands. He was just two and I remember thinking how I had to fix him. I had to make sure his nose, his forehead, and the of side of his face was okay. I did not think twice about touching blood, or how his whole nose was black and blue. In that moment I was selfless. I chose nursing because I am capable of putting others before me. I am selfless enough to understand what it means to be a nurse, and have to be a mother, a daughter, and a whole family in a patient’s time of need. I am independent, and strong enough to deal with challenges and make the right decisions. In my soul I know I am meant to help people and fix their hurting and sadness.

"It does not matter the road you take, or how long it takes you to reach your goal, it only matter that you reach it in the end." (-Anonymous) I start my morning off with this quote daily. To me, it represents who I am on so many levels and why I want to be a nurse. I have not always wanted to pursue a nursing degree.

Being a daughter of a nurse practitioner has it perks. When my mother was obtaining her master’s degree in nursing science, she used me as her patient while giving me tips and little fun facts about the nursing field. I soon began to find that this is the kind of future I wanted. I wanted to help others, especially children, in such an imperative manner. I need to be able to quench my thirst for science and working on the hands on field, utilizing the skills I will be learning in school. I want to make a difference in this world. I want to be important and fulfill the purpose on why I was created. For me, this isn’t about the money or on bragging rights or even the title. It is about the people I get to encounter each and everyday by helping.

My calling to nursing started when my father got diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2015. I watched him suffering through radiation and chemotherapy, but what got him through those hard times was the help of some great loving and caring nurses. As I became more involved in taking care of him, my passion for nursing had greatly increased. Now, for nine years, I have maintained a commitment to caring for others in the field of Nursing. Being a registered nurse (RN), I have taken care of one patient at a time, which I have been involved in the amelioration of lives, and have only been left wanting to give and do more.

Growing up in Sri Lanka, I have seen many children waiting in long queues to get treated, due to a lack of child nurses. Being in hospital myself, receiving treatment for nearly a week, the care I was given by the nurse felt like a mother’s warmth. Both of these reasons have enthused me to become a Children’s’ nurse, to give the care that I received to other children. To feel and show empathy towards the family is crucial and I believe it’s something which I will be able to do. Skills including good communication, showing approval and social perception which I have learnt through Health and Social Care, helped me to realise that individuals need different kinds of personalised care.

Ever since I was a little girl I wanted to become a nurse practitioner. Being the one to take care of my grandparents by feeding them and serving them their medications made me realize my passion of helping people that cannot help themselves. As I was growing up I was also suffering from kidney failure that finally forced me to leave my family to come to the united states to get proper treatment. When I became old enough I went to school and became certified as a nursing assistant and a phlebotomist. To succeed at my goal of becoming a nurse practitioner I realized that I must first obtain a bachelor of science in nursing. For a short-term goal, I am determined to get my associates of science at the Community College of Aurora. I know that
