A Career As An MSC Officer
While in pursuit of earning my second master’s degree I commenced to volunteer at a local hospital, which exposed me to several different aspects of health care admin duties, including marketing. Volunteering was great practice which intensified my desire to push forward to becoming a MSC officer. During that time I have acquired that one of the most important elements to achieving my goal is perseverance. Although, as enjoyable volunteering has been, preparing my package was a testing task.

Through all of my obstacles that I have endured during my transition to becoming a MSC officer, needless to say, it has been challenging and at times very stressful. However, I never abdicated even in moments I felt weary, discouraged, and defeated. I stayed in prayer every day and each morning I would start fresh to continue my transition. My belief is so firm that I diligently obtained a set of blues and ABUs adding rank along with patches in place to be ready for COT and graduation. I store my ABUs up on the wall in my room as well as keep a picture of my uniform on my phone so I can see what I am striving for each day. This is a reminder for days that are more difficult to keep pushing forward. That is how determined and committed I am to becoming a MSC officer.

To those who pursue this field know it is a career that requires far more than simply an education even though the knowledge acquired from a degree is extremely important and necessary, by grasping rationale of the laws and regulations that rule nursing. A career in nursing requires someone to have compassion, sympathy, and care for others, especially those who are suffering from pain, illness and lack the understanding of what is happening to them or a loved one. It is a career of humanity, and it is this that first attracted me to a Masters degree in Nursing. My philosophy about nursing is that it is a career that one has to work hard for, but also a career that a person needs to have to a natural affinity for. I also believe one must have a commitment to helping others not expecting anything in return but a smile and knowing when you go home you gave your all. The ability to be a compassionate, caring nurse is what I hope to bring to the Masters degree in Nursing Program, gaining…

    I believe to be a good physician empathy is the key towards good quality healthcare and patient satisfaction. My excitement also stems from working with those who have the same interests as me.

    I was back from my first deployment to Iraq with the 1st Battalion 27th Infantry Regiment that lasted fifteen months. Although I had completed my tour there and had accomplished more than many newly turned nineteen year olds I still had an empty space in me I wanted more. I still felt as if I had not accomplished enough. When the deployment was reaching its end I had a talk with one of my section leaders and I remember telling him that I wanted to attend Special Forces Aptitude Selection (SFAS). He like most people didn’t believe me he probably just thought I was like the many people that said things like that to get promoted or into the spotlight. But I meant what I said which although fraught with challenges and ending in…

    Ludden writes “If you understand the reasons you want to work and look for things in your jog that satisfy these reasons, you will be happier and do a better job.” I agree with Ludden’s statement. I believe in having satisfaction is not only in your job but in what you do for your job that will make you a better employee and will help decrease stress associated with the job. I like to help people, so the medical field allows me to fulfill that joy while learning about the human body. Also knowing that I have to work to support my family encourages me to find a career that I will enjoy as well as making a good living. I take pleasure in making patients feel better about their health issues. This satisfaction allows me to wake up every morning with a smile on my face ready to start the day at work. Having this motivation makes me want to work harder and to better myself to improve my work skills, in return making my employer proud.…
