Personal Statement: My Nursing Philosophy Connected To My Long Term Goals

I have had the distinct privilege and honor of practicing the art of nursing since 2000. Throughout this time, I have seen the profession evolve through technology, practice and theory. With the recent and constant change created by the healthcare reform, today’s nurse must realize that learning is a lifelong process that does not end upon graduation. The nurse is never done learning, especially as technology and medical knowledge are constantly evolving. My most recent endeavor has been the pursuit of my Bachelor’s degree in Nursing at Western Carolina University. This education has broadened my mind to the opportunities nursing has to offer and has enriched my personal and professional goals.

In the near future, I will graduate with my Bachelors of Science in Nursing degree from East Carolina University. Guiding my ultimate nursing goals is my love for children. As a mother already, I have learned and immensely enjoyed my journey with my six-year-old child thus far. However, I would love to expand my knowledge on the unique needs of the pediatric patient population. The pediatric patient population is very diverse, due to the various stages of life within this populace. In the near future, I hope to expand my understanding and experience with pediatric patients through becoming a registered nurse on a pediatric nursing unit within a hospital. However within ten years, my goal is to become a school nurse. This being said, there is an extensive field of knowledge and training I will need to gain in order to achieve my ultimate nursing goal of serving all children in their medical and developmental needs.

Nursing is a vocation for people who are conscientious, patient, and reliable all skills that I believe I possess.

The journey began several years ago, when this author’s great aunt became gravely ill and was placed on palliative care. Working alongside a selfless, compassionate, skilled, and supportive nurse was a life changing, but inspiring experience; it was also the inception of a journey to becoming a nurse.

It is important to have a personal philosophy in the nursing field. This will help a nurse understand ones own beliefs and values of self. A philosophy can also help a nurse to comprehend how ones own beliefs and values will relate to their field of nursing or work environment. This could also help anticipate future problems and disentangle a predicament.

The purpose of this paper is to create a personal philosophy of nursing statement. In order to develop a statement, first I had to look within at my own values and principles on life. My grandfather always used to say “remember who you are.” These words along with other morals have always been at the forefront of my core self. On a daily basis I strive to uphold ideals such as treating others with respect, dignity and with kindness. I believe my personal standards correlate with certain nursing values, especially accountability and caring. Accountability is an extremely important quality to have as nurse. We must be accountable to not only ourselves, but to our coworkers, and most importantly to our

When I was a child I had a severe ear infection and my parents took me to the clinic to be treated. During that visit I had to observe and interact with the nurses. They provided me a comfort before treatment and they healed me with an excellent care. I admired their work and wished to be in their shoes.

Helping others are one of my strengths, also rescuing children for medical issues will be a goal I’ll be interested to fulfill. As getting to know myself I’ am very determined and have a head on my shoulders, I’m more interested in people than being interested in myself. Also, I believe in becoming a nurse that will fulfill in my career in helping my community.

I chose to study nursing as a profession because I have come to recognise that I have unknowingly created a set of valuable beliefs that will guide my career as a nurse.

I am applying to Talent Development because I really have a desire to major in nursing.
