My Career Research Paper

Improved Essays
As a little girl I have always loved helping people. At a young age my mother went through a depression around and was put in the hospital for a suicide attempt. I’ve witnessed nurses come in and out of her room providing her with excellent care, not only helping her heal physically, but mentally with great words of encouragement. From that point I knew this was the career for me. I am currently 28 years old and I have 2 little boys who are my world. Christian is 5 years old and Carson is 1 year old. I was the first person from my working class family to attend college. I received a Bachelors of Science in Health Care Management, at that time I steered away from nursing and became fascinated with Health Care Management.
After I graduated,

    It has taken me quite a while to decide upon a major, but when I started looking into nursing, it was like everything just clicked. There have been many factors that led to this decision. The biggest one of all is my mother’s last pregnancy. Towards the end of her third trimester, she started having difficulties especially with her blood pressure. I remember being with her in the hospital and watching as a doctor and a couple of nurses fluttered in and out of her room.…

    Throughout my educational career I have had several great teachers. To choose my best teacher is difficult for me since each teacher was for a different course and they had a unique personality and style of teaching. Overall, I would have to choose Mr. Poska as my best teacher (not necessarily my favorite teacher). I took AP Calculus I & II with him during my junior year of high school, then I took Calculus III with him in my senior fall semester. I also happened to have him as my junior and senior advisor during Connect.…

My mother went into labor at 26 week and they told her to be prepared, as the likelihood of me surviving being born that early was not good. I, however, held on for eight more weeks and was born at 34 weeks.…

This has become part of who I am and shapes how I see the world.…
