I knew I wanted to be in a career where I helped people and had an impact on my life. Personally I think my late father had a big part in this as I lost him when I was 10 to lung cancer, I don’t think I will ever forget the impact the nurses and doctors had on myself as well as my family. They did everything in their power to help him and that in itself is one of the reasons I want to study medicine to have an impact and help others but also as a way of repaying and honouring those who helped me in that dark time. One of the biggest thing I will always remember is the smile and the positivity they always carried which showed me that even though the work can be challenging it is still rewarding.

I also learned what working in a medical disciplinary team looked like while professional in their field carried out a role play demonstrating this.

For instance, it was interesting to be able to see and work within the different dynamics of the nursing profession. In the OR and endoscopy unit I noticed that the nurses seemed much more relaxed than those on the medical or surgical floor. I felt as though they had copious amounts of time to educate on the different procedures and different pieces of the specialty areas, while allowing me plenty of time to ask questions to broaden my knowledge. In the endoscopy unit, the RN that I shadowed was very involved in my learning and made me feel as if I were a part of the team and not just a
