    As a future register nurse and as a woman I feel that a have a tremendous responsibility to give back to my community. I believe that one of the most forgotten populations in our community is the elderly, and as a society we have so much to learn from them and to thank them for what they did in the past. I strongly believe that if I could make some positive changes I would decide to do them to influence some senior citizens’ lives and to change their isolation for companion and thankfulness. I would advocate for the elderly with our authorities and I would request a budget to build a clinic to provide preventive health care services for them. I would designate a budget to build a nursing home for the elderly that do not have a place to…

    Transitioning from an LVN to a Registered Nurse When I was in school to become a Licensed Vocational Nurse, I had not planned to continue on to become a Registered Nurse. I felt that being a LVN was going to be enough. The truth is that I was afraid of the responsibilities that being a Registered Nurse carries. Once I started working I saw that the Registered Nurses on my unit were responsible for a set of patients just like I was. At the time I could only see small differences in what they were doing and what I was doing.…

    The career I was assigned for this presentation is a Family Nurse Practitioner. In the spirit of full disclosure, until this paper I was not fully aware of what this profession truly does for the community. Family nurse practitioners, abbreviated as FNPs, are advanced practice registered nurses who work autonomously or in collaboration with other healthcare professionals to deliver family-focused care (graduatenursing). Although I personally have always found the field of nursing vastly interesting and I do plan on working with children, I am not currently pursuing this career.…

    When I was a child and a lot of times during my adolescence I had several moments of indecision about the things that I wanted. From the simplest to the most complicated. And although it was hard to choose what to write or what flavor of ice cream to buy, I was always sure of one thing: I like to help people. That's why I chose nursing as my career to college because this was a way I found to realize my dream; being able to help my fellow man when he needs it most.

    These regrets of not learning enough, not believing in myself enough, thoughts of perpetual inadequacy, self-worthlessness, and all other negative adjectives that gang up on my thoughts have assumed a life inside of me. Times when I think to myself, “Hey! It’s not too late to become a writer,” I have this…being telling me otherwise. When I tell myself, “It’s not too late to become an artist,” it appears again, gripping my skull with its talons and crushing these hopes right out of me. Even the thought of becoming a better me is contested and battered down into the pavement with a sort of hate.…
