As a little girl I dreamed of going to college and being a part of the health care industry. However, over the years my plans did not work out the way that I wanted them to and my goals had changed over the course of time. Even though certain aspects of my life changed over the year my desire to attend college did not. As a single parent, of two beautiful children the desire to go back to school has only heightened over time. I have always had an interest in helping others and being a part of the health industry.
I did horrible my freshman year but my mom still managed to discipline me enough after seeing my report card that I went from a 1.8 to a 3.0 student by the end of the year. She did this by enforcing strict discipline. I wasn't allowed to go out and I had to stay home everyday to work on my homework. Society hasn't shaped me, the community I lived in hasn't shaped me, what really made me what I am today is my mom. She shaped me to become what I am today, even though it took many years to make me into what she wanted me to be, she's the one who gave me my mindset to try my best and to always know there's room for
I really get to know my patients and try and make them feel as comfortable as they can because nobody really wants to be stuck in the hospital. I’ve always been interested in going into the medical field but I didn’t really have a clue as of what I wanted to do. Some days work can be a living hell and other days it doesn’t seem like work at all. It’s an incredibly gratifying feeling to make a difference to somebody. I mostly see older patients in the hospital because I work on the orthopedics floor.
The “selling” section of Enrenreich’s book was really the turning point of the book for me. The first two sections focused on jobs that I really could not relate to, as they were random businesses in areas of the United States I have never visited. When Barbara decided to take a job at Wal-‐Mart, America’s largest private employer, I was finally able to relate to her struggles because I am very familiar with the company. After reading about the struggles both Ehrenreich and her close co-‐workers faced, I am very supportive of her decision to leave Wal-‐Mart in hopes of securing a higher income job elsewhere. The company seems to really know and understand the situation their employees are in and they definitely use that to the advantage
Discourse Community Analysis: Nursing Whenever a nursing student is asked what prompted his or her decision to become a nurse, most of time he or she will say “I enjoy helping others.” That is partly the reason why I chose to become a nurse, but honestly, I decided on a nursing career primarily because I thought I was not smart enough to be a doctor. I never wanted to be a nurse, because I had seen some nurses quit their jobs due to too much stress and fear. Many people think of a nursing career as a nasty and thankless job, as did I. However, through this project, I realized that nursing could be a very rewarding profession, just as that of a doctor or any other profession, and wherever I go, I will have a job since I am the kind of person who wants to live in as many different places as possible. And yes, nurses are paid fairly well.
I decided to become a nurse. The field of science never really fascinated me. I got through it while I was going to school, but the real reason I became a nurse was to heal people in a caring way. My husband and I both work in a very demand field. We work long hours and don’t talk as much as we would like.
Registered Nurse Do you remember being a child and constantly being asked “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Well I was the kid that always gave a different answer every time. I was always undecided regarding the career that I wanted to pursue. As I got older I realized that I wanted to have a career in the medical field. Being a nurse interests me because it requires the study of the human body, it is respected and because I find fulfillment in being able to help those who are in need. Once I started researching a career in nursing I realized that there were a lot more types of nurses then I had originally imagined.
In this essay I am going to explain key influences on the learning process of individuals. I am doing a BTEC extended diploma in health and social care right now at college and I am enjoying it so far. I did As levels last year in applied science, media studies and communication and culture and did like the subjects which made me go off track I didn’t attend lessons and my attendance dropped poorly. However when I came to pick up my results and I didn’t get the grades that I needed I realized that I need to put my head down because I don’t want to end up doing a boring/retail job all my life. My career goal is to become a radiographer which my dad first introduced to me and I found rather interesting, but my plan B is social work.
I also wanted to grow up to do something to help people. I went through some stages that I was influenced by my friends to do stuff that I should not have but I learned who I really wanted to be around. The people who supported who I was I kept around. When I decided there was not enough challenge to high school I got into the running start program and went to college so I could get ahead of everyone else. After I graduated, I did not know where I wanted my life to head so I did not go to school and just worked and had fun.
I believe by achieving this goal it will help me to become a better student and employee. I know that in my career path as Registered Nurse I will encounter communication methods each and every day that will require me to get outside my comfort zone. This discomfort is something I have to divide and conquer
