How would you describe your ideal job? Your ideal work environment?
The emergency room is my ideal place, but it will be nice to have sufficient staff and more respectful patient. If not everything is dependent on patient satisfaction that I think that would be a better ideal environment.
What 's your most important professional achievement?
Right now the most important is my masters as a nurse practitioner. I’ve been nominated for the last couple of years for...it’s called the Falling Star Award at my job you get nominated depending on my co workers. I’ve been nominated almost every year. The reason why I haven’t won though anymore is because I need to take a certification exam and i haven’t been able to take it.

Everyday up until recently I haven’t been in charge because I’m pregnant and its a big risk, but before I got pregnant I was always in charge of the emergency room and the pressure is like none other. I perform extremely well all the time because having to allocation the patients where I have people coming in and ambulances coming in and I have to delegate transporters, clerks, nurses, nursing assistants, plus deal with the patients and know everything that 's going on with every patient in the emergency room. Whether they are critical or not I need to be able to have a group of people to be ready to receive a critical patient. I need to be able to juggle resources that I have and sometimes our resources are limited, but we always get through the day. There are days where the sentence is pretty high when we have over 80 patients and I need to know everything that 's going on with the patients so you get used to that.
How has your training prepared you for a nursing career?
I would say that in all reality … the training that i got in school wasn’t that much of a preparation for until I actually go to work. I learned more when I continued my profession than in actual clinicals because i was able to work and learn more and have more experiences. So it was a stepping stone, but it wasn’t an actual real preparation.
