Although most people think they can get away with picking an easy topic for their senior projects it turns out to be a little more complex than that. Growing up my ideas and passions would always seem to be changing but when I finally became set in my ways at least in knowing what I would like to pursue the Nursing Program was up to par. I chose to do mine on Nursing in the ED (emergency department) because this is a field I would love to go into so I can be of service to those in need of any medical care, to always have a stable job to rely on, and further more to be able to excel in the field of medicine. I would love to be one of the people on call to respond to the needs of another individual in their time of need. Anyone could only imagine that feeling one would get after providing such an extraordinary service.…
I have chosen to pursue a career in medical assisting. So far in this class I have learned a variety of information about this profession. I have learned exactly what a medical assistant does, what credentials and certificates I need to attain, current issues surrounding medical assisting, personality traits that will ensure success, different job opportunities available, and a copious amount of other things. I have also learned interesting things about other career paths and mapped out a career plan of my own.…
In school, I have enjoyed learning sciences especially when the topics are related to human conditions. Ever since learning about general biology in my junior high school years ago, I have on my own taken additional anthropology, psychology, anatomy and chemistry classes from a local college for further enrichment and have grown very fond of learning the complexity in human machinery and interaction. Occasionally I do find learning these topics too weighty to continue. Whenever that happens now, I would always manage to pull through by remembering that particular good day where I acted as 'an orthopedic doctor'.…

It requires lots of planning along with the morals and character of a true professional. This is a career path requiring lots of selfless work, a compassionate heart, and a sharp mind. The pay is competitive and benefits are aplenty. To be fully prepared to pursue this profession one must gain experience in the medical field and be prepared to do a lot of research. If these things are done with the right tenacity then problems on the road to meet that end should be minimal.…
The career that I have been passionate about my entire life is becoming an OB/GYN, also known as a gynecologist and obstetrician. An OB/GYN is a person who specializes in a caring for pregnancies and childbirth, which also consists of prenatal care and exposure of sexual transmitted diseases (STD). I believe that I would enjoy this career being that I love dealing with anything that has to do with pregnancies and babies. My back up plan if becoming an OB/GYN doesn’t work out is a pediatrician. I think a pediatrician is the closest profession to an OB/GYN.…
I interviewed Dr. Janet Geyer and received some great information from her. Geyer sand the hardest part of becoming a doctor was “The lack of personal time, everything became about school.” I knew that going into the medical field would be hard and the majority of my time would be spent studying, but hearing it from a doctor makes it real to me. I asked Geyer what makes her happy to be a doctor and why, she said “I like the intimate part of being a nurse, people tell me more than what they would normally tell others and sometimes I am really able to make a difference.” I thought about what she said and I would love to make a difference in someone’s life, but I also need to remember that I cannot get too attached to my patients. Geyer said that if she could go back and give herself advice from when she was in college she would tell…
In all reality, few things move faster than a million miles per hour, but, for a student approaching the end of high school, life seems to accelerate even past that. The daunting challenge presented by the “real world” is one that every young person will encounter; in facing it, they make decisions that will shape the rest of their lives whether for better or for worse. Choosing a career or a field that pikes interest is one of the most important facets of a successful and happy future, family and general medical practice and Law are two careers that I have researched and found to be most consistent with my personality and passions, through my research…

In addition, my employment experience has provided me with great respect for social and ethical views that differ from my own. This position has given me the opportunity to decide if a career in medicine is truly where I would like to be. Working at the hospital has been a truly challenging experience through dealing with the magnitude of death, illness, and recovery. This experience has made me realize that a career in medicine is where I need to be. I have experienced a multitude of emotions and in the end I have realized that the reward of knowing that a life was saved or that through the death of a patient, we have made groundbreaking discoveries in medicine is far greater than the emotional tensity associated with the experience.…
Seeing the huge difference a small group of dedicated people can make to so many lives first led me to think about a career in the Medicine. A profession that will allow me to work with my head, hands and heart plays to my strengths and I look forward to the challenge of applying a high degree of skill and knowledge for the good of others.…
It’s so interesting to me because it teaches you a lot deal about people. It’s also an important factor when you want to be a nurse because you meet patients from different backgrounds. My career aim is to gain all the knowledge and hands on skills that I can use when I achieve my goal of becoming a nurse. I look forward to going to university because I think it will challenge me to be more independent and I will see things in a different point of view. I am the type of person that approach thing that I’m passion about with hard work and determination, so I know that my dream of becoming a nurse will be…
Being a pediatrician requires patience and care and not just for the actual job, but for the actual journey it takes to become one. It will take me about ten long years of difficult work and dedication to finally have my career, but I know it will all be worth it when I finally do. I learned that good things do not come easy, so I am willing to do whatever it takes to become a pediatrician, even if that means giving up family quality time and having a personal social life. The difficult journey is what is going to make the career more enjoyable for me because I know how long and hard I had to work in order to get to accomplish…
From a young age it became clear to me that a career in healthcare was the right choice for me. Growing up with a mother who worked both in nurse administration and in healthcare reform, and who’s many friends were all involved in health care, I was emerged in healthcare and the many different careers that someone can chose to pursue. Being given the opportunity to see so many healthcare professionals and see what goes into their day to day lives was something I took for granted prior to taking this class and seeing what it takes to get into their chosen fields and how much work is done prior to being considered a professional in that field. This class has shown me all the preparation and intelligence it takes to go into many of the healthcare fields I have considered going into.…
Thinking of the future and deciding on a career field is very stressful for students. It is very rare that a student knows what they want to study and the occupation that they want to enter. These students often spend thousands of dollars and several years of their lives at a university, trying to find something that interests them. Eventually, they may settle with a business major, a communications major, or a history major. Fortunately, I am not a student who is in this type of situation. For the last two summers, I have volunteered my time and assisted with making patient’s stays at Wayne Memorial Hospital a pleasant experience. By interacting with the nurses and seeing the impact made on each person, I realized that I should study nursing…
