Soon after, I received my licensure and began working at The Queen's Medical Center as a Registered Nurse (RN) in early part of 1994. Since becoming a RN, I have provided care to a great deal of patients and reassured countless numbers of family members. As a RN, I've also become the coordinator of care, patient advocate, and teacher to the patients I cared for while serving as the eyes and the ears of the physicians. As with any human, I enjoyed sharing the laughter with my patient and cringed at site of their pain and despair. For these reasons, I believe that being a RN is a great career choice for me. However, for these same reasons, I still feel that I am not a complete nurse; hence I've decided to go back to school and try to earn my Bachelor in Science Degree in Nursing

The time period, in which I would visit the doctor’s office, lead me to become more accustomed overtime to the environment and eventually grow a passion for what is being done.

In Nigeria, I had a first degree in animal science and one year post graduate in Public Administration. I got married at the age of 29 to my husband who was a medical doctor. I became fascinated about what goes on in the hospital and how nurses and doctors related to their patients in a compassionate and patient manner. Since then I started developing interest in nursing. Sometimes I end up helping my husband to prepare food for the patients when they don’t want or like the food served to them at the hospital. I also keep the patients company when I am free. I realized that what some of these patients need is them talking about themselves without them being judged. Just sitting and allowing them to talk is very therapeutic to them.

Building on this making connections with people is very important to me. Once I was able to build a connection with B I was able to work with him in a more cohesive way. Making that convection helps to build trust, positive relationships are built on trust. Being a good listener is a skill that I value as a nurse. Not only do I value being a good listener but I also value being heard. I value you a person 's ability to do what they say they are going to do. If you tell a patient that you will return to check in with them in 30 minutes than you need to be sure that you keep your word. When working with clients it is import to me to build on
