259 Words2 Pages
I’ve been an athlete since the age of seven. I naturally developed over my athletic year's determination and a the ability to work in a team. I believe all great health professionals must possess those two traits to be successful in the profession. One must be determined to heal or make the patient's’ quality of life better. Health care providers must be able to work with other health care professionals as if they are all on the same team. The team whose mission is centered on caring for the patient. I believe these two core values are deeply ingrained in me and will be used when I become a licensed PA.

In addition to my determination and ability to work in a team, I will contribute my compassion, and patient-first attitude to the community

Ex-Basketball player by John Updike is a poem about Flick Webb. Flick is a mechanic that was a superstar athlete in highschool. Flick wasn't the smartest so he didn't do well in school. Because he didn't do well in school he only became a mechanic and lives in the same town as he did in highschool. I think that the message of the story is that just because you're a great athlete you still have to try hard in school so if sports don't work out then you have a backup option.

Health care is a term that describes a broad range of services. Members of a health care team range from family members to neurosurgeons, but each member of a patient’s health care team plays a critical role in optimizing patient care.

Putting the fun back into physical activity for children will do wonders to foster PA. You don’t see children playing in neighborhoods anymore. A constructive approach to developing outdoor free play is, in my opinion, the cornerstone of developing a love of doing, moving, and being physically active. Many children don’t enjoy the harshness of competitive sport (I was one of them) but do enjoy being out and about doing things. As a child play that involved running, cycling, swimming, and skating were all the things that I truly loved.
