Pursuing A Nursing Degree

One of my favorite writing assignments that I wrote along this year would be “Career Plan”, since it helped me find out what I really want to be and learn more about that Career. Searching for career is really helpful and it helps you decide on which one you want the mot and think it’s more convenient for you and you know you will be able to accomplish.

As a result of my hard work and dedication throughout high school I am a prospective student of a top private university. In the near future I will be attending Gonzaga University as a nursing major. After graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing I will be pursing a speciality program in pediatrics. Initially, I became interested in nursing following a month stay at Children’s Hospital. After enduring emergency surgery, I was inspired by the nurses care and kindness. When I felt as if I was never going to recover the nurses would instill hope in me. I aspire to help a child and family the same way the nurses helped me. Working at Children’s Hospital would fulfill this aspiration and allow me to give back and help people in the best way possible.

Since I was in grade school I always had a dream of going to college and becoming a doctor. I pushed myself to maintain an “A average” and continued to be involved in sports and school activities. Both my personal and professional lifetime goals in life are to provide and offer true love and compassion for humanity. With my goal of obtaining a nursing degree is extremely important to me as it would allow me the opportunity to fulfill my career goals and desires.

Making way downtown in a dirty, congested country, I see blind people selling nuts in the street in return for some money. Being merely a tourist in Egypt, my actions wouldn't prevail any good-doings due to my age and lack of experience in the medical field. All I could do was buy nuts, donate some money and food, and I was off my way, back home. As I grew older, I've become more aware that my desire to get into an amazing school at home with a nursing program is a big desire in my life. NYU can make it happen for me. From enrolling aspiring doctors to actors, the school which is located in the heart of Washington Square Park, is the place where I most desire to be. Due to its sheer location in the heart of the city, many students are allowed to take on internships, and use a variety of a diverse staff and and resources.

The Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommends that nurses further and obtain a degree in education at the baccalaureate level by 2020 to eighty percent. The baccalaureate degree is achievable and is critical in changing workforce by allowing the expansion of nurse’s skills and competencies in all areas that affect the community, public health, leaderships and research.

Pursuing an associates degree in nursing without three children and a career is hard enough, so I can only imagine the stress this senior student is going through in the presented learning exercise. I believe the logical decision for this student is to quit her part time job so she can focus more on herself, her children, and schoolwork. In this situation we do not know how supportive her parents are that she lives with. I would assume that they are rooting for their daughter to complete nursing school and are willing to do all that it takes to help her achieve this goal. Money is always an issue, so I also believe the student should try to take a loan out to help with school expenses and any other expenses she may have. Taking a loan out to

Growing up playing with my with my siblings and relatives made me want to pursue a career in Nursing. We would always pretend to work in a Doctor’s office and I would be the nurse. I would always say when I get older I’m going to be a nurse and helper others. So when it comes to choosing a career of my choice, I would like to be a CNA . CNA is abbreviation for Certified Nursing Assistant which job duties consist of providing basic for patients in hospitals, long term facilities such as nursing homes and home health care for the elderly who can’t provide for their selves.

A year ago I went in the journey of looking for a better nursing job at a bigger hospital. What I founds was that most of the hospital were looking for a bachelors degree, they stated that it is not mandatory but at least the nurse have to be enrolled in school working on the bachelors in nursing. It is definitely a competitive market that does not only measures years of experience but the educational level as well (Altmann,

Nurse practitioners can write orders and diagnosis patients. However, the ability of nurse practitioners to practice to the full scope of their training is a growing debate in many states in the country. Primarily because of the American Medical Association and American Nurses Association conflicting views on the training nurses receive compared to the level of training physicians receive. Physicians complete undergraduate, medical school and depending upon their elected specialty four or more years in residency and possibly fellowships. Nurse practitioners at this time only complete two years. Their limited training is a real point of contingent between the two organizations.

Since high school, nursing has increasing grown as the career I feel destined for. Science has always been my favorite subject, and I know my family often gets annoyed with my constant explanations of body functions and diseases. After shadowing a charge nurse in the Emergency Room and riding around with a paramedic, my passion for nursing has elevated. I’ve grown to love the intensity of the medical world and the nobility that comes with saving a life. While I want to go into nursing school with an open mind, my heart seems to lean towards Emergency areas or traumas, and geriatrics. I enjoy the fast pace environment of the ER and not knowing what my day entails. I see myself as a potential travel nurse, examining ailing people of third world

When I think of learning I think of gaining knowledge and the process of learning continues throughout life. Obtaining a nursing degree is important to me by not only learning but also growing through the process. I feel that challenged students that work hard get great rewards. To be an honors student, you need to be excited about learning, have an appetite for engagement and know how to engage in the world meaningfully.

Although not a setback, I am venturing into a profession new to me and for my family. My father did not complete high school. He emigrated from Ethiopia to a refugee camp in Kenya and was fortunate enough for an opportunity to move to the United States. My mother underwent similar struggles on her journey to America. She was able to complete and earn an associate nursing degree and she's been a dialysis nurse ever since. The one more or less challenges on my end is that there are no doctors in my family that can relay information or reassure me with advice about their experiences. Although it would be beneficial to have someone a physician in the family for advice, and encouragement, I know my family will still be my encouragers and support

Deciding my major has been one of the most challenging and time-consuming problems that I have come across in my life. The solution came about through several trial and error semesters of courses I thought might be interesting. Choosing what you want to do for the rest of your life is an enormous, stressful, and time-consuming task, but it is proving to be one of the most rewarding tasks I have taken on. Many obstacles have come my way, but I have always known that I wanted to help people and make a difference, I believe that lead me to where I am now. Growing up I always enjoyed my Grandma’s stories of nursing, so I decided I was going to become a nurse. The summer going into high school, I volunteered at the local hospital to get real world experience and that was my first rude awakening. Nursing was not for me, having a queasy stomach and nursing do not mix well. After taking many random elective classes and several major changes later, I gained knowledge in subjects I might not have taken, and

The plan that I have for my future isn’t a very clear one and I’m still trying to figure out what I want to major in and do with my life. If I were take on the health care path as a profession I think I would want to be an anesthesiologist the most. Towards the end of last semester I was thinking about nursing because of all the different people I knew that were in it and how much they liked it. While talking to my parents about it they also thought that it would be a good fit for me and that I should go for it. After this semester with Professor Selzer’s class I realized that nursing wouldn’t be the best for me, I would still enjoy it but I think I can only take so much of people, therefore I’d rather put them to sleep. Anesthesiology is the

By achieving a Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing at the University of Florida, I hope to acquire the knowledge and the skills imperative to work in the medical field. As a graduate, I expect to have obtained proficiency in teamwork in order to function with other nurses and doctors in chaotic areas such as the emergency room; as well as the ability of assisting patients while working under pressure in extreme scenarios as it is in the case of an operating room. Since it is an exceedingly delicate field, hospitals or other medical facilities are expected to hire responsible and clinically knowledgeable employees. Likewise, a competent training is essential in the course of taking care as well as saving the lives of patients. With this knowledge
