Why I Want To Become A Nurse Anesthetist

For as long as I can remember, I have always dreamed of becoming a nurse. I knew that I wanted to be a nurse I was just not sure of what kind of nurse, but as I got older I grew to love babies and kids more and more. It then hit me, that I wanted to be a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Nurse (NICU). Being born prematurely, and knowing by hearing stories and reading about the NICU has shaped me even more to want to be a NICU nurse. I know that with being a NICU nurse involves a lot of time and dedication, but that does not matter. I am always asked " How are you going to be able to handle being a NICU nurse", which leads to the response of "I know that it will be hard, but someone has got to do it". I have always been told that it takes someone

My dream is to become a neonatal nurse so I can directly aid in the treatment of infants born with a life-threatening illness,birth defects, and those put at risk from premature births. This is a cause close to my heart as my mother has worked with children who suffer from a plethora of birth defects for many years at Spring Creek Elementary School where I have had the pleasure to volunteer on many occasions. These children have their own personal battles that they fight every single day,they do it with smiles on their faces and love in their hearts and it's with the help of the medical staff that fought for them at birth that they are here today to share their love with the rest of the world. This is the nurse I intend to be.

Dreams are alternations of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations. They shape the emotions that we feel in reality. Within the next ten years I would like to be furthering my career in the medical field but more specifically in the unit of Neonatal Nursing. As a very family-oriented person my instincts have always been to not only to care for my needs but to also care for others. Because my mother has taught me that transitions can be fundamental and positive in reforming lives, someday I hope to hold that aptitude. Furthermore, with this ability I am looking to improve my life as well as the lives of those around me. Due to my loved ones who have raised me with such strength and courage, I have grown more with strong dedication towards becoming a gratifying individual.

Growing up my father taught me many life lessons; one that I will never forget was when he told me: “A man living in a house without light will never know where he is going or what he wants to do.” At the time I did not understand what that meant until one day he explained in to me. Without proper goals a person is just lost in darkness and unable to find their way in life. By working towards my goals, I feel that I am constantly growing as an individual and learning how to approach all sorts of situations that life throws at me. Recently, being a part of the EOF Nursing School Program at Rutgers University, I feel that I have just set the foundation to achieving my goals which include graduating with my Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing alongside one day opening a home for the less fortunate in Guyana.

I wanted to talk you for meeting me again about the extra help labor and delivery nurse position. I just want to reiterate my commitment and enthusiasm for becoming a labor and delivery nurse.

While growing up, I always dreamt about helping people and making a difference. As I got older I realized that becoming a nurse would allow me to do those things, and that it is something I would want to do for the rest of my life. Although, I have been set on being a nurse most of my life, two major events happened afterwards that reassured me that I could not take on any other career but nursing. I lost two very important people in my life and because of them, I want to continue on my path to becoming a nurse, to make a difference and save the lives that I can.

Time dawns upon me to move and transform into the man my family hopes of becoming as I turn the new chapters of my life preparing for college. The constant pressure of preforming academically excellent and competing amongst my high school classmates displays the difficulty and challenges of a young adult seeking a better life. Throughout my years of learning and studying, I came to realize the valuable knowledge I’ve acquired and the future potential of increasing the betterment of society. From my current academic studies and the strenuous extracurricular activities performed during my high school career, I learned key aspects in life that taught me lessons in order to obtain success and achievement. Specific experiences across my past evoke my dreams of becoming an officer in the armed forces and also having a drive to become a nurse practitioner in the coming future.

I come from a background that includes: divorced parents, an only child, middle class, and born in Houston, TX. I am lucky enough to live with my mom and my aunt who care for me deeply, and being able to receive support from my dad who I visit occasionally. I consider myself independent and quiet, and I never liked leaning on other people for help. However, I do recognize that many people lean on me for help such as my mom and my friends in which I am gladly to do so.

As a young child, I always, somehow got “sick,” and my mother constantly took me to both the doctor and the emergency room, until she found out that my “sickness” was only another excuse just to go visit the doctor. After numerous occasions to the ER I was drawn the normal routine of having my heart listened to with the stethoscope, hearing the doctor say “Open wide and stick your tongue out” using the tongue depressor. Which then proceeded into checking my temperature with a thermometer, and checking my BP using the blood pressure cuff. Over time, this became a fascination in which I was inspired to pursue long-term goals in obtaining my MD/Ph.D degree in pre-med and biology. Soon after I’d become a doctor or an anesthesiologist with a mission to change lives forever. In spite of the fact I don’t possess superhero like attributes, I hold the power of assisting those that are in need of

“When I grow up I am going to be a nurse.” Since I was was ten I knew I was going to be a nurse. I was going to graduate from high school and attend college with a nursing degree and live out my life as a nurse. I was so sure that nursing was the only thing that I wanted to do. However, my first semester of college has led me to question my goals and passions. In high school, I was driven to achieve at the highest level. I joined almost every club extending from theater to the National Honor Society in order to help pad my college and scholarship applications. I took dual credit classes and took extra classes in order to achieve a college prep certificate. When graduation day finally arrived I had won many scholarships and had got my acceptance letter to Truman. Over the summer, I planned what my life was going to be like on

The duties, earnings, and education of an anesthesiologist have been interesting to me since I was a young girl.

This course is also my fifth towards my master’s degree; however, I am on the generalist track. I am still not one hundred percent sure what I want to do further on in my career as a nurse, however I believe I might want to teach nursing students in the clinical setting. Being able to create a nursing blog is great; it is a great way to treat yourself while doing homework. I agree with you when you stated that it not enough to know about the disease but to know why the disease happens and how to treat the specific disease.

In fact, there are several reasons why I chose nursing as my profession. First and foremost is that I want to focus on changing people’s lives (Nurse Journal, 2016). As a nurse, I would study the life's value when I would be seeing individuals struggling to remain alive. Since I am fully aware that each life's breadth is a gift, I would, therefore, understand this lesson further as I would be nursing various patients daily. I greatly respect human life, I possess strong values and I am compassionate for empathy and suffering, factors that have further attracted me to the nursing profession. Second, nursing profession allows continuous learning. As I like learning, I would possess unlimited opportunities for advancing my medical knowledge. As such, I would capable of choosing to work in various departments, train to become a medical assistant and as well enter the nursing management where I would grow and mentor new nurses through sharing my knowledge

My academic and career goals don't stray from the norm. I strive for success and for satisfaction in my work. I refuse to let a goal go unaccomplished. I feel that I display that by moving across the country from Idaho to Washington D.C., to see to it that I get the best education I can. My passion is helping people, and I see no better way to do it than to care for all ages and ethnicities in a day to day job. I am starting with obtaining a Bachelor’s degree, then work for my Master’s degree with a specialty in anesthesia. Nursing has everything I would hope to have in a life and a career. The opportunities are endless with where I would be, what I would specialize in, and who I would work with. I want to take this career

I decided to attend college because I’ve always wanted to help people. As I grew older my desire to help others lead me in a lucid career path. I wanted to become a doctor. I knew I wanted to become a doctor, but I wasn’t aware of how such of a complex career it would be. I realized that it would take years of education, training and experience. Nevertheless, this was something I was determined to do and complete successfully. So I worked hard in school. Occasionally I got a bit side tracked, but with the help of my grandparents I recovered quickly. I also wanted to break the cycle in my immediate family. By being the first person in my immediate family to attend college. My grandmother died approximately 3 weeks before I
