This career brings joy to million by comforting those that need it the most and most importantly this career path saves lives. Saving lives is the most important reason why I am choosing a career in the medical field. In middle school one of my good friends almost choked to death on a burger he ate too quickly.

I also gained tremendous encouragement from this motto when I decided to pursue a nursing career in my forties. Some of my family and friends have been telling me that it’s unwise to give up my business and start a new career in a different field at my age.

However, I believe that my genuine interest and enthusiasm in nursing will help me to excel in this field and achieve my career goal. After all, “nothing is impossible to a willing heart”.…
As a nursing student, I have a personal and professional interest in contributing to the health of individuals, families, and communities. In particular, I have a pronounced interest in global health matters, specifically related to environmental and women’s health. During the winter semester of my freshman year, I had the pleasure of taking of NURS 421: Perspectives in Global Health. From discussing issues ranging from child malnutrition and HIV/AIDS to postpartum health, the course expanded my knowledge of global health challenges.…

For this research paper I will be writing about my major, which is pre-nursing. Pre nursing is something that I’ve wanted to do for a while and is something that I’m really passionate about because I have always found it intriguing and interesting since I was young. It turned into a passion when I was in high school because that was when I really started to think of a serious career path. In high school taking a class in Anatomy and Physiology validated that choosing nursing as a career was the right choice. When I was younger, I remember watching medical shows on the Discovery Life Channel and being really interested in how the human body worked, for example how a person can get a heart attack and the processes the body goes through during…
I plan on taking as many transferable science credits as I can here, then move on to Iowa State University for an undergraduate degree in Biochemistry and a graduate degree in Veterinary Medicine, large and small animal. Because I am still on my parent's insurance plans, I cannot be considered for any need based financial aid, as my father is a software engineer at Rockwell Collins, though my parents are not financing my education; thus I have come up with a few ideas to keep the threat of accepting loans at bay for a while longer. These involved earning certification as a Phlebotomist Technician and as a Nursing Assistant, practically guaranteeing a job that will provide both clinical and laboratory experience, as well as avoiding a career in fast food.…
Registered Nursing is one of the most popular careers at this time. Registered Nursing in my opinion is often a career that gets overlooked, but it is actually a very important career possibly even more important than a doctor.

From saving lives, assisting in surgeries, helping to deliver babies, taking care of patients,or just giving you, your annual flu shot nurses make our lives easier.…
During my high school sports career, I made a few hospital visits due to a dislocating shoulder. After multiple visits and a few surgeries, the people that I remember the most are the nurses. My surgeon was pleasant and the emergency room doctors were helpful, but the nurses were the ones who not only performed their job, but made me feel comfortable and confident, easing any fears I may have had. The professionalism and friendliness of the nurses that I met has pushed me to pursue a degree in nursing.…
“When I think about all the patients and their loved ones that I have worked with over the years, I know most of them don’t remember me nor I them, but I do know that I gave a little piece of myself to each of them and they to me and those threads make up the beautiful tapestry in my mind that is my career in nursing.” As said by, Donna Wilk Cardillo, who is RN, MA, CPS with 30 years of clinical experience.

When I was younger, people always asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I used to say things like a doctor, a lawyer, mainly the “big time” jobs that I saw when I watched television, However, I have always been fascinated by the medical field and all of its entirety. There are many different people and paths that can be taken upon in the medical field. There are physicians, physician assistants, pharmacists, nurses, nurse practitioners, and many more. The one thing that they all have in common is working to help others and that’s what really drew me to that field.…
I am sorry this happened to you. But, I’m glad to see that you decided to pursue a nursing degree and are happy with the outcome. It is very sad to see these big companies closing their doors without a minimal respect for their employees. In the case of General Motors, 10 years ago, they were actually having a good, profitable year when they decided to close their plants in Michigan, and leave thousands of people without jobs, and families without health insurance. It is very distressing to see that entire cities that were dependent on the auto industry are still recovering from it (Pear, R.,…

By my graduating year, I held over hundreds of hours, office positions, and won awards.…
