Pursuing My Nursing Career
When I was in high school, It was challenging to think of a career pathway because I either wanted to become a nurse or a detective. My counselor told me their was a program called “Career Technology Center,” where you can choose any career and pursue your dream while attending high school. So, I choose to check out the nursing program. I instantly fell in love! The hardest part was getting accepted, which I did get accepted into the nursing program. I later became a certified nursing assisted, once I graduated from high school. This led me into pursuing my dream on becoming a pedantic registered nurse or doctor. I just love helping people other out. My family and friends are very supportive of my career choice. Now, the hardest part is actually

    Nursing to me is not just a career choice; it’s a way of life, and one that I’ve wanted to pursue since I was a child. I’ve witnessed firsthand the miracles that nurses can work and I know that every nurse is somebody’s hero. Likewise, the most inspirational people in my life have been nurses and I strive each and every day in my classes to absorb as much information as I can, in hopes that one day, somebody will say the same thing about me. I believe that one of the most vital choices you can make in your life is that of which school you decide to attend. My ultimate career goal is to become a Lead Pediatric Nurse Practitioner and I know USF would provide me with the kind of premium education that would ensure my success.…

    At first I was drawn to nursing as it was what my mother had done for a living for many years and I had seen much of what she did first hand with my many injuries in sports and being an adventurous child. As I went into high school and was able to see what it truly takes to be a nurse, with all of the bedside manner and to say it simply “blood and guts,” I began to rethink my decision to go into nursing. While it takes less schooling to become a nurse, it is an extremely rigorous course load and an arduous task for someone who is not fully committed to that field of work. I experienced the same kind of trials while looking at other health professions such as becoming a doctor, a veterinarian, or a dietician before finally coming to the realization that none of these were the career path for me.…

    I have always maintained that one of the most difficult things I have ever done in my life was obtain my Associate’s Degree in Nursing. It was a vigorous and competitive program in which I found myself sometimes laughing and crying at the same time. I have always been pretty realistic about life, not too much of a dreamer, no delusions of grandeur, and never an anticipator of special treatment. My parents were old school, always taught us kids that we should expect to receive back only what we put into something; hard work always pays off. When I began my academic journey, late into my thirties, I was nervous about how I would measure up to the younger students, I mean, they were pretty used to going to school so they were already sort of…

    When I graduated my BSN program I knew that I would continue my education in a master leveled program but I was unsure where my heart would lead me. I started my nursing career in a level one trauma center ER in Spartanburg, SC. There I grew my knowledge by leaps and bounds. Due to a 64 mile distance between my home and that ER, two years later I moved from a PRN RN in a smaller ER to a FT position in Hendersonville, NC which is closer to home. In both the suburban and rural areas I noted the large disparity between primary and preventive care and the patient. Patients that walk into the ER everyday for sick visits and acute changes in chronic illnesses s are asked if they have followed up with their primary care provider. Very often…
