“What do I want to be” was never a question I pondered too deeply. The sudden death of my father to an unknown health condition and 5months thereafter, the tragic loss of my mother helped fostered a caring and compassionate spirit often alluded by many in describing my personality. I suppose this translated to why I find it easy and satisfying to help and serve others, most especially those in a medically vulnerable state. Thus, choosing a healthcare professional, specifically nursing was a natural fit for me. The ability to be able to care for patients and bring about a meaningful change in their life serves as an outlet for me. It makes me confident to think I could have nursed my parents back to good health if I was an adult or was in this career when they were sick. However, as a ten years old living in a developing nation with inadequate accessibility to healthcare services, I was limited in what I could have done. Today, however the story is different. My story is now defined by what I am doing and what I hope to do to better save and impact lives.
For the past 14 years serving as a health professional and currently as a registered nurse, there are many stories to tell of my patients’ healing, struggles and hope. Situations that has called me to serve not only as a care provider,

My name is Sergo Colin and am a junior nursing major working towards a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and then Registered Nursing Certification. I am from (City/State, Country) and currently reside in (City, State, etc.). I work as an Assistant Director of Nursing in a Skilled Nursing Facility. From an early age, I knew I was interested in helping people; my parents tell stories of helping to tend to the neighborhood animals, real or stuffed, and my fascination with anything with a medical theme on television. As I matured, I knew that I wanted to be in one of the healing professions, but it seemed to me that many physicians and specialists, while certainly a vital part of the healthcare paradigm, are more and more distanced from the patient due to staffing and fiscal issues. Modern nursing, though, has changed drastically from even a few decades ago. The modern nurse is no simply an assistant to the physician, but an integral part of the communication and advocacy process with the patient, the patient's family, indeed - all the stakeholders surrounding the issue of the best care possible for the client.

That’s my end goal to acquire the skill set needed to be a successful Nurse practitioner.

I do not want to stop learning nor do I want to remain stagnant in my career. Continuing my education is an important success to

Although I knew that nursing would be a challenge, I knew that I had to pursue that specific career.
