The Process Of Becoming A Registered Nurse

The objective of this study is to examine the role transition from Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) to Registered Nurse (RN).

As a LPN I plan on working in long term care to spend time passing meds and being able to do assessments, or work at madigan hospital in hopes to be able to work in acute care until I get into RN school. I plan on working full time in whatever area I get a job in, most jobs offer classes to keep you up to date on what is best and safe practice. I plan to attend classes and seminars as provided to try and keep myself as sharp as possible in hopes to keep myself as sharp as possible for the safety of my patients and when the time comes for me to start school to be a registered nurse. I plan to take part in CEU’s. I plan to take classes to manage my 45 hours of continued education yearly I would like to take classes on medication administration

As a Wilmington resident of seventeen years, my choice to attend the University of North Carolina Wilmington is ‘without a shadow of a doubt’ an easy one. In eighth grade, I began to seriously decipher through colleges, and attempted to decide which one was meant for me. UNCW wasn’t initially my first choice, but as I got older, matured, did extensive research, and with my college years growing nearer, it became very evident that it was where I needed to be.

If you plan on taking a career of becoming a registered nurse here's what you need to know, registered nurses provide care for patients with so many different medical conditions. Nursing provides both professional career path as well as personal satisfaction that comes from giving healthcare services. As one of the fastest growing careers in the United states with large increase in the healthcare facilities throughout the country the demand of registered nurses is extremely high.

Saving lives matters. You do not have to be a Doctor or a Police officer to save a person life. Being a Nurse has greater or equal value in saving someone life. A registered nurse or RN is a person who has graduated with a nursing degree from an accredited college or university, has passed the state board examination and is licensed to practice nursing. It is very important for a person who wants to become a nurse to research the pros and cons of the different areas of nursing. Gender is a big role in nursing, especially when a specific area of interest is chosen by the individual. For instance, women are gentle so they will probably do well with caring for the babies. While the men are physically strong, they are needed in the physical therapy area to help with lifting patients. Being a nurse you must have patience, customer service, being independence, and honesty. I believe that being a nurse will not be an easy task. Becoming a nurse takes hard work and dedication. Being a nurse may be an accomplishment for those that enjoy helping others. It also has great pay and benefits and offers a secure job for a career.

Desiring to aid others with the use of science and medicine, I am currently striving to obtain my Associate’s degree in nursing at Ivy Tech Community college to move towards my career/financial goals. However my educational journey will not end there, I will later transfer to IUPUI to receive my Bachelor’s degree in nursing and then move on to my goal of becoming a Nurse Practitioner, and hopefully dabble with medical research along the way. My career goals stem from high school when I entered a program known as Young Innovator’s Quest, a two-week program that allowed its participants to explore multiple facets of STEM (science, technology, engineering, and medicine) through the creation of their own research projects and interactive activities.

Becoming a Registered Nurse requires many hoops to jump through. The Associates Degree Nursing Program requires two years of your time, patience, and responsibility. This can be obtained either through a community college or either at a four-year college as well. I chose to attend a community college do to the fact that I have to work as well attending school full time. Time management is a key factor to becoming a great respectable Registered Nurse. As a Registered Nurse you will be trained in Anatomy, Physiology, Biology, and also Nutrition. The typical nursing program prepare you with the basic nursing skill such as taking vital signs (blood pressure, temperature, oxygen levels), to Emergency care, Pediatric care, Obstetric care, and also Medical- Surgical care. All of the information obtained through schooling helps prepare you for the NCLEX, to receive your nursing licenses. I have had my heart set on this particular major for years now. I chose Nursing because I love to help others. I want to be the hands and feet of those who are in need. I have a passion to serve others and a love for those who are sick and may need surgery to also caring for those who had a baby and celebrating with them in that moment in time. I have found that in nursing you have to put yourself aside and put others before yourself. This is where I tend to strive and let go and let God do his work through me. As a nurse there are many options of field of work to choose from. Ranging from working

Becoming a registered nurse will take a long journey to finish if you found handling money and maintaing good grades in high school too be difficult. You can start by getting into a community college where one can have a second chance, and then be able to transfer to a university, or Cal State, where one will finish nurse school. Throughout the time you are keeping your grades and performance high, your mind can already conceive ways to opening more doors and the opportunities to be able to accomplish the desires you have for the near future. I envision myself getting into a community college , and then transfer my way to a private university where it gives me the opportunity of becoming a successful registered nurse. This is the option I decided to take because I also share the same difficulties that other students have with high school, and lack of money today. It takes every small achievement to grow to be one big success.

I’m positive there are many ways to move ourselves into a situation where we have more security in our lives. Although doing something different and trying new method is sometimes uncomfortably frightening for many people, if we stretch ourselves out from our comfort zone and willing to take risks to grow, there is always room for improvements. For instance, I want to become a skillful and a successful registered nurse who can make a difference in people’s life by giving the best possible care for my patients. I understand this isn’t an easy task and require a lot of consequences and sacrifices that I have to make n my life. Nonetheless, I strongly believe there’s nothing worth having comes easy. Additionally, people need to enhance their skills

Caring is the art and science of showing someone you truly comprehend their emotional state and overall wellbeing. As employees in the healthcare profession, we must learn to care for each patient and their individual needs. Patients in a hospital setting are feeling lonely, vulnerable and going through changes in their body due to illness. One of my responsibilities as a registered nurse is to provide a nurturing, safe, and healing environment for my patients. In the hospital setting, health care personnel are always worried about medications, diagnostic exams, and procedures but they fail to acknowledge that behind all those tasks, there is a human being with feelings in a foreign environment.

My career goal is to become a registered nurse. When I was a young girl, helping the sick and/ or needy people had always been a passion of mine. Triaging, handing out prescriptions, and observing and monitoring patients' conditions are some of the things a nurse does. The negative side of being a registered nurse would have to be the hours. You must work long hours, holidays, and weekends. The schedule also changes often so the body does not get used to the life style. Working with long hours also affect the bonds and relationship with family members. Nurses do not get to see or spend quality time with loved ones very often. The positive outlook of being a nurse is very rewarding and makes you feel needed. Nurses are highly

I decided to major in Nursing because I knew I always wanted a career in the health field, but I do not want to go to medical school. At least right now I do not want to, but that may change in the future. Nursing interests me because I would have options about what kind of nurse I want to be, who I want to work with and the setting I would like to work in. There are a lot of topics that interest me as a nursing major. I’m mostly interested in the hands on experience and actually doing the clinical trials. I’m interested in that because I know once I start that I’ll be one step closer to my degree and that means one step closer to being a Registered Nurse. The areas that I think I will have some difficulties in are the science classes unfortunately. Science has never been my best subject, but I know I’ll have to put more of an effort when it comes to those classes.

Before the age of eighteen, I had lived in three countries. My father’s career as a doctor and scientist of Military, Disaster & Extreme Medicine took my family throughout Kazakhstan, Russia, and the Ukraine. Although it was a challenge for me to continually adapt to new places and learn three languages, I am grateful for the cultural exposure that traveling provided me. In every new environment I was raised to treat others with equal respect and kindness regardless of any differences or similarities we may have had. This exposure has taught me that successful acclimation lies in the ability to interact well with people from diverse backgrounds. Here, in a country of immigrants, I have met people from countries all around the world. The Nursing field provides me the opportunity to help all people regardless of age, sex or ethnicity. I seek a Nursing degree here in the United States in order to increase my knowledge and to be able to practice in the field of professional nursing. My goal of becoming a Registered Nurse has long been encouraged by my personal interest in the profession and by my experience, previous education and achievements. These factors continue to motivate and inspire my desire to seek this degree and become a healthcare professional.

After many years of working an entry level position in the health care field, and subsequently having a great deal of interaction with nursing staff in a variety of settings, I have decided to focus all my efforts towards gaining my license as a registered nurse. My current goal is to successfully gain entry to the AS Nursing program at PHSC.

A registered nurse, an airline pilot, and a flight attendant are my top three favorite career. However, I eliminated flight attendance out of my list due to the fact that many people said that it’s wrong for male to do that job. Now, I am having a hard time of deciding whether to be a registered nurse or an airline pilot. It’s making feel so frustrated about myself. I feel like I can not do anything successfully because I can even decide my major. My dream is to fly on the sky, so I figured out that the only way to make that dream come true is to become a pilot. There are many different kind of pilot like commercial pilot, airline pilot, military pilot, etc. I thought a lot about it and I realized that I like big airplanes than helicopter.
