Nursing Assistant Personal Statement

As a nursing assistant I am required to work together with fellow nursing assistants, nurses, therapists and doctors to provide care to patients and ensure safety. For instance, recently at the nursing home where I work, a patient was declared unresponsive. However with the help of my co-workers we effectively worked as a team to stabilize the patient until further medical help arrived. During this incident I was responsible for calling for help, obtaining the crash cart that possess and performing CPR. I am honored to say that I successful aided in the procedures necessary to regaining ones consciousness.
I believe that the golden rule in life is “treat others how you want to be treated,” while the platinum rule is “treat people how they want to be treated.” I say that to say this; good service is imperative to a patient and as a PCT I will assume the responsibility of ensuring that every patient is given quality care.
During high school I met a student who had no intentions on going to college due to financial issues. However, I knew that he was a very intelligent man and had the potential to achieve great things. So I encouraged him to apply for multiple scholarships and I informed him of the numerous financial assistance options that are available. Luckily, he took my advice and decided to work towards funding his college career. As of today he is currently enrolled in a community college and looks forward to graduating next
