Personal Narrative: My First Search
At first, I didn't find the database to be useful. My first search was neonatal and nurse practitioner which I got one-hundred and eighty-nine results. I narrowed my the search to find better articles that will help me find a topic. I changed the publication dates from 2011 to 2016, full text, and source type as a magazine. After the changes, the search result was one, and I it was not useful because it was about an Australian nurse and diabetes. Additionally, the article didn't have anything to do with neonatal or newborns.
I changed my keywords to neonatal and nurse which I gave me better results and a few ideas that I could see me writing my paper on. One article talked about how “nurses working in neonatal intensive care feel poorly equipped

    Personal Narrative: The New Frontier

    Traveling into the Indian Territory, we were being angrily chased down by three Indians furiously shouting at us. Dashing through the thick forest, the savage Indians were throwing spears and shooting arrows that narrowly missed us. Although neither Gideon nor I was mortally injured, I did suffer from a nick from an arrow piercing near my ear. Thankfully, a group of burly fur traders approached from the side, which frightened the Indians to run away. Acknowledging that Gideon and I were inexperienced travelers in the west, they offered us protection in exchange for some valuable possessions. As a consequence, knowing that they were our best alternative for survival, we gave them our antique gold pocket watches and assumed the identities of novice fur traders. From that point on, we followed them through the west and adopted their skills for efficiently hunting animals and keeping warm in the harsh, cold weather. During one of our rest points, we approached a large Cherokee settlement located in Park Hill in which our group leader was friends with the Cherokee leader John Ross.…

    Why I Want to Be an Mdical Assisant

    The decision to go into health care was an easy decision for me. It started with the birth of my cusin, he was born premature. He weighed two pounds 13 ounces; he needed specialized care which was provided by neonatal nurses. Neonatal nursing is a relatively new specialty by comparison to adult health, midwifery, or other areas of nursing. Because it is new, there are great opportunities for nurses to devote their skills to newborns who need specialized care. Neonatal refers to the first 28 days of life. Neonatal care, as known in specialized nurseries or intensive care, has been around since the 1960's (AACN, 2010). I was in awe of how they cared for my cusin. When it was time for my cusin to be released I knew I wanted to be a nurse. With life you never know what is coming your way, I did not pursue the field because life happened got married and had three more children. I did not forget that I wanted to be a nurse just couldn’t get it in my grasp.…

    Personal Narrative: First Find Yourself

    American climate scientist, Mark Caine, exclaims, “The first step toward success is taken when you refuse to be a captive of the environment in which you first find yourself”. Beginning my high school career, I thought high school would be an easy transition because I was accustomed to getting good grades in grammar school, so I did not put as much of an effort as I could have in my studies. The first biology test arrived, and I thought I was knowledgeable on the subject matter so I briefly looked over the material. Approximately a week later I got my test back and I was not satisfied with my grade. That happened for most of my first tests in each of my classes. I learned I would not be satisfied with my grades if I continued to keep those…

    In my opinion, the article was very helpful in the sense that it shows how physicians actually think of their nurses. They like that they are older and have a lot of experience. It gave me a good outlook on how they expect the nurses to act and hold themselves. It also gave me a little insight about how important it is to have good communication with your doctor. It will prevent your patients from any harm and it will keep you and your doctor a…

    Personal Narrative: My Search For Sources

    I learn good skills that help me to look for sources like a book and an article, and how to skim in a fast way. By the time when I searched for a source I become a good reader. The new thing I learn it is how to find a source, how to use the website of the library of Portland State University, and how to find it in the library. However, the favorite part I like it, it was to search about a source and how to choose a good one. Moreover, I proud of myself because I can decide which sources are helpful or unhelpful by just skimming. This is a big change in my level of English language. Nevertheless, the challenge part it is to find a book in library shelves, but I overcome because I ask for help from librarians to explain for me how to read the…
