Why do you want to become a nurse?
|
There are two main reasons why- 1: I am altogether fascinated by medicine and 2: am completely in love with helping people. I feel a strong sense of accomplishment when in roles where I help others, and also when I work as a part of a team. I am also a bit of a nerd too to be honest, I love learning. I feel like if I were to take a job in medicine I would constantly have the ability to learn something new. I would always have the chance to meet new people, and learn more about the way the human mind and body works together. I would never be bored.
