As I embark on my journey to become a registered nurse at the master's level, I anticipate significant changes in my role and responsibilities. As a registered nurse, I will transition from a student nurse to a fully licensed healthcare professional. This transition entails a shift from primarily observing and assisting in patient care to taking on a more independent and autonomous role in providing comprehensive care to individuals, families, and communities. The standards for my new role as a registered nurse are established by professional nursing organizations, regulatory bodies, and healthcare institutions. These standards encompass a range of areas, including clinical practice, ethics, professional development, and patient safety (American …show more content…
These strengths include strong communication and interpersonal skills, critical thinking abilities, and a genuine passion for patient-centered care. By leveraging these strengths, I can contribute to positive patient outcomes and make a meaningful impact in the lives of those under my care. As I evolve in my nursing career, I see myself transitioning into a clinical setting that aligns with my interests and areas of expertise. While I am open to exploring various clinical specialties, I am particularly drawn to the field of critical care or labor and delivery. I am inspired by the fast-paced and dynamic nature of these settings, where immediate interventions and skilled decision-making can have a significant impact on patient outcomes. Incorporating health assessment and history taking into my current role as I progress and develop my skills will be crucial in providing comprehensive and individualized care to my patients. By honing my assessment skills, I will be able to gather relevant data, identify health problems, and develop appropriate care plans. Moreover, thorough history taking will enable me to understand the patients' medical history, potential risk factors, and social determinants of health, which will inform my decision-making process and contribute to holistic
The strong Lutheran foundation at Valparaiso University that prepares students to lead and serve in the community. In addition to the church, and society offers me the opportunity to pursue a Doctorate of Nursing Practice degree. The university's foundation and family-centered focus make it a great place for work-study. Although no one ever suggested that my journey to become a Registered Nurse would turn out to be a faith-based journey, I transitioned from Medical Assistant to Registered Nurse in 2017. I enrolled in an LPN program with only 12 weeks until graduation, but the school closed with no further information.
A career as a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner is a natural extension of my personal, educational, and research experiences. Although my path to nursing has not been a straight line, every experience that put me on this path has shaped my passion and dedication to psychiatric nursing. After losing loved ones to suicide at a young age, I made a promise to myself and to them that I would dedicate my life to helping individuals struggling with mental illness. This promise led me to study Psychology at UC Berkeley, where I fell in love with clinical research investigating the efficacy of treatments for mental illness.
Enrollment in the mentioned CRNA program will satisfy my personal goal of becoming one of those fulfilled CRNAs.

I have cared for over 300 critically ill, ventilator-dependent patients. As part of my residency nursing program, I was part of an evidence-based project on IV pain medication and respiratory distress prevention.

Personal Statement for Nursing School “When a person decides to become a Nurse. They make the most important decision of their lives. They choose to dedicate themselves to the care of others” Growing up in Nigeria; I had my first introduction to the field of medicine at the age of 6. At the time, my grand father was a holistic doctor at my local community. Whenever my grandfather went to work, he would take me with him and I remembered being very fascinated by how people would come in to get treatments for different kinds of diseases.
I care about providing the best holistic healthcare I possibly can for my patients through evidence-based practice. I respect individuals’ race, socioeconomic class, gender, and sexual orientation. I work well with others and I strive to help create a good working environment where people can communicate, ask questions, learn new information, and feel respected. With this New Graduate Nurse Residency Program, I hope to be exposed to many different clinical situations. I hope to further develop my clinical leadership skills and to gain new knowledge.
I just completed my Bachelor of Science in Nursing and look forward to exploring nursing theory, evidence-based practice and leadership even further in the advance practice curriculum. I am pursuing family nurse practitioner because it will allow me to be more versatile in my nursing skills and serve a larger patient population. There has been a focus on primary care medicine since the Affordable Care Act; resulting in a larger need for nurse practitioners required to care for this patient population. I have been granted an opportunity to advance my career and I am more than ready to take on the added responsibilities and handle treatment plans autonomously, as well as learning additional skills such as diagnosing and prescribing medications. By obtaining my graduate level education my clinical judgment would be enhanced to improve safety, quality of care and patient outcomes substantially.
Nurses need the ability of fast critical thinking skills and observation of declining signs and symptoms. Nurses also must have the ability to educate
I am in my third year of nursing and I am currently working in a hospital on an Orthopedic Neurological Trauma Unit. I collaborate with patients to identify the prominent health issues they are experiencing and advocate to ensure the care they receive is the most effective for their healing process. Patient interaction, learning new skills and evidence based practice, and being hands on with patient care are the benefits of my job that I enjoy the most. I form a bond with these patients and listen to their personal story to ensure that I give care individualized for each patient. As a Family Nurse Practitioner, I can connect with patients of various age ranges and diagnoses by applying these
I am writing to express my interest in the Healthcare Systems Engineering track in the Industrial Engineering MS. This track ties in neatly with my career goal of reducing the cost of health care in the United States and is my primary motive for applying. Furthermore, this track will bolster me as competitive candidate for Florida Hospital’s Performance Improvement department. My four years of professional experience has been a mixture between working as an engineer and a tactical consultant for companies in Life Sciences, Health Care, and other Service Industries.
I am highly intelligent, respectful and competent with the ongoing nursing process and patient care. In my ongoing learning
Teaching and nursing are two careers that equally appeal to me. I am drawn to both, and have a strong family history in both lines of work. Unsure which profession I want to ultimately work towards after high school, I set out to find an answer. My goal was to use my senior project as a tool to help me decide between the two. Being more familiar with nursing, I thought it would be a great idea to gain more experience in the world of teaching, and I could not have chosen a better project!
When you’re younger you always talk about what you want to be when you grow up. Back in my younger days I wanted to be a professional athlete or a famous singer. I couldn’t decide which at the time. You imagine what your life will be like and how your days will go. I always imagined myself being rich and having a big house and fancy cars.
I was so interested in educating mothers about the childhood disease that I found it necessary to join the Nigerian Red Cross Society and the National Program on Immunizations. These organizations exposed me to the reality that there is shortage of staff within the healthcare system and a gap existing between the clients and the health care team. Other prevailing issues arising within the healthcare system have its root embedded in these fundamentals. Our team members conducted a survey that lead to the conclusion that individuals, communities and the nation as a whole consist of different ethnic groups, races with different educational levels.
From a young age I was captivated by the science of the human body – what makes us ‘tick’, how such vast, complex structures could work together so seamlessly and how even the smallest organelle can have a pivotal role in ensuring organs carry out their function. To this day, I continue to be intrigued by what I believe to be the most important profession to exist – the ability to cure and make someone well again. This passion grew during my work experience at GlaxoSmithKline and AstraZeneca where I could see first-hand the research and the level of thinking that goes towards a simple drug that millions take for granted. After experiencing the pharmaceutical side of patient care - I became eager to begin talking to patients and experience the clinical, more personal side of medicine.
