When I am able to aid others I get a sense of happiness. I really …show more content…

Having a high income is a very important part of choosing a career. According to BLS data from May 2014, the average annual salary for health services managers such as hospital administrators was $103,680, with the top 10% of professionals earning at least $161,150 a year. With that kind of salary, I would have no worries or fear of not making payments on time or living paycheck to paycheck. That feeling would be incredible. I know from experience that struggling to pay bills is stressful and I don’t want to one of those people who just think about money nonstop and never seem to have enough. I am going to provide for myself, and my future family with ease. I enjoy knowing that I will have a secure future and that the possibilities of advancing in this career are endless. Another perk would be having the ability to improve the face of healthcare and actually making a difference in human lives. Changing people’s outlook on healthcare and improving lives for the better is something worth working

I really enjoyed learning about this career. Anesthesiologists don’t just deal with the anesthetics, they are also actively monitoring the patient’s vitals, as well as assisting the surgeon with any help they may need. I was also very surprised to learn that they can sometimes work in offices. They don’t deal with patients at every time of day.

It was 1993 when a supposedly routine joint patrol between the Kosovar and of the U.S. Army into Mount Ljuboten, a mountain peak that borders Kosovo and Macedonia, almost became a tragedy. I was then an electrician in the U.S. Army, but was assigned as the only combat medic personnel trained at the time, which was scary since I had just received training as a first responder about a week before the hike.

As my first experience in providing medical care, I had to insert and infuse IV fluids, organized transport, and signaled a helicopter for evacuation. It was stressful, but this was a point in time, when I’ve realized that having the knowledge, skill, patience, personal courage can make a difference in a person’s life, which was not only self rewarding, but can also be a life-long goal towards a career in nursing.

The statement, "Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life,“ has such an impact on my thought process that it has convinced me to pursue dentistry as my career.

For me, dentistry is not just a job, but also a wonderful way to live my life, which I cannot imagine otherwise.
