In order for me to be competitive for this career I must gain extensive experience in this field. I know that my grades and most of my skills allow me to qualify for this position but that doesn’t matter in most cases. In order for me to stand out I know that I must get more involved in a hospital care setting. I have only been volunteering in a hospital for six months now and I feel that more years of experience will allow me to enhance my knowledge. I as well plan on joining the club called HASA for networking and making more connection and using them in my work

In my time volunteering at the hospital, I hope to gain many different experiences. However, there are a few main ones: adaptation through enrichment and dependability. First of all, I want to get to know and adapt to the environment of the hospital and learn how different processes work. This is a crucial part of being in the atmosphere of a clinic. Also, the experiences that I will have at the hospital will help me to understand the routines and entailments of the career I would like to pursue. I hope to become a Physician’s Assistant in the future and this will be the best way to know if it is the right position for me. This enrichment of my understanding will help guide my passion for this career path and hopefully strengthen it.
