Why I chose nursing

Nursing

Why I Chose Nursing as a Career have chosen nursing as my second career for a number of reasons. First, my goal has always been to help people in some form. I have a B.S. degree in biology, and I feel nursing will complement these skills, while allowing me to be a caregiver rather than a scientist. I feel the timing is now right for me to pursue this career as my life's profession. Furthermore, it would be a great privilege to earn my nursing degree in your institution. I know the education I receive there will fulfill my goal of becoming a nurse, and well prepare me for my future career.

A also feel I have a deep inner commitment to bring to my profession. I am a member of the Sinai Seventh Day Adventist Church, and have offered my services there for many years. I have taught Sabbath School and am an active member of the adult choir, as well. As an involved member of the church, I feel a genuine concern and responsibility for our youth. During 1998, I served on the Administrative Board and was the Chairperson for the Council of Children's Ministries, coordinating all children's programs for the year. I feel I would especially like to work with children in a hospital setting in my chosen profession, and help them cope with their diseases and illnesses in a positive way. I feel I can connect with ill children and their families in a positive and empathetic way.
