When I decided to enroll in becoming a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) last 2009, I know that I would be able to deal with different kinds of people and be able to be part of their healing process during their stay in the healthcare institution. Today, as I become a part of the health team, I learned a lot of things. First is being able to know how to communicate and work with varied type of people may it be our patient or a coworker. In my every day shift at hospitals and nursing homes, I was…

Unlike most people I hear that are in health science, I have not always known that I desired to be in the health science field. This may sound strange since I am applying to a health science school, but I now know that this is what I am most passionate about.

They always forced the idea and when I was younger I resented it, I wanted to travel the world not go back to school right after finishing twelve years of it. The second, as I got older I realized there is not much in the world if you don’t have a degree. Right out of High School I did a six week Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) certificate course. I had…
I have worked in the health care field for a while now and with taking this class I still was taught new things every chapter I read for this class. It is almost impossible to be at the position where you can say that you know all you need to know in community health. Policies are often changing throughout the state and country, as well the simple policies that change in the hospitals and doctor offices. I know that my knowledge has improved from this class; however, I do know there is more I…

Accounting is a diverse field with a plethora of different responsibilities that range from investigating tax fraud in large corporations to providing critical analysis of data to financial decision makers.

courses, I have come to the decision of going into the accountant field. Since I am currently in the Undeclared Major in York, it gave me an extra few months to think about what major is best suited for me. Recently, I have written a midterm in my first accounting class and have come to the conclusion that going into the accounting field is what I want to do. In this field, as long as taxes and…

This case raises a question whether the TPAA’s policy of banning CPA’s solicitation to potential customers violates the right of free speech under the First Amendment. We hold the opinion that the policy is unconstitutional in serving the…
there for them as they make their transitions in their lives. I will get to meet them during their worse and hoping to bring out their best times! I am ready to begin my journey at working towards a bachelor’s degree. I am currently working as a Certified Nursing Assistant at a nursing home here in Vincennes.
