    This student chose to do a family care clinic that is attached to a hospital. The clinic is located off the main atrium of the hospital in the attached medical office building. The floor plan is designed to hide the chaos of traditional medical office medical assistant (MA) stations where physicians and staff gather to coordinate patient care. Having the family care clinic attached to the main hospital through the atrium gives the hospital more direct options to refer patients directly to their own clinic.…

    Job Shadowing an Ob Nurse

    • 707 Words
    • 3 Pages

    As a senior, I had the opportunity to job shadow an OB nurse at. During my time in the baby/mother area of Carilion Hospital, I experienced the admission process and discharge process of patients. I observed both mother patients and baby patients being assessed for vitals and given vaccinations. After each assessment was done, I observed my mentor as she put the information into the hospital date base program called “EPIC”. I observed 2 babies getting their hearing screened. I was also able to observe the tasks of a baby photographer, a nutritionist, and a brief consultation with a lactation educator. My mentor allowed me to listen to two heart beats of different babies; one with a murmur, the other without. I helped with simple tasks such as retrieving ice water and drinks and preparing a bed for a patient. My mentor showed me how to analyze the abundance of data on the main computer screen. This computer screen showed information such as what type of delivery was preformed (C-section or vaginal delivery), how the baby is to be fed (i.e. breastfeeding, formula), where the baby is being kept (NICU or nursery), etc. I witnessed a baby’s first bath, which can only be given after the baby is has a stable temperature. For this reason, most babies in the NICU will not have their first bath until weeks or months after they have been born. One thing that is not common that I had the opportunity to see was a patient with a nasogastric intubation (aspiration). The reason for her having this was because she had an abundance of fluids in her stomach, even after she had delivered her baby, and these fluids were not draining. Although I did not get to observe this next condition first hand due to the baby being placed in the NICU, I was informed that there was a baby born with gastroschisis. Gastroschisis is a disorder in which the baby is born with part of its intestines outside of its body, via the umbilical cord. My mentor described this…

    Having been determined to attend UBCO for nursing, I focused on taking courses with transferable credit. Though I subsequently lightened my course load, I occupied the remainder of my time devoting myself to various volunteer opportunities with diverse client populations. I believe familiarity with the hands on aspect of nursing is as essential as my education. I maintained my grades while balancing multiple volunteer opportunities to gain priceless experience caring for individuals with varying demands. Upon admission to UBCO, I will embrace the opportunity to start a full time course load while continuing the compassion and empathy I learned.…

    Considering this, other potential options were to explore volunteer opportunities in hospitals or clinics. Thus, I recalled my friend Fernando Moreno M.D., who has worked at Jamaica Hospital in Queens, NY for several years and proceeded to phone him and inquire. Being a friend, as well as a sweet, dear person, he offered to sponsor me and avoid the hassle of the application and interview process after informing him of my time constraint concerns. Here, this was another valuable lesson concerning future job employment with regards to networking. Sometimes, having a friend, relative, or simply knowing someone who works in a prospective company can be an…

    Underserved Community

    • 629 Words

    It is critical to understand the underserved communities challenges and barriers and other factors that contributed to their situation, family, social and culture. As a future APRN, I will have the advantage of knowing the inner workings of the family while treating patients and providing complete care because I can personally relate to the challenges that face many underserved communities. In addition, I have volunteer experiences working with several Emory University physicians at the Good Samaritan Health Center, Mercy Care and National AIDS Education and Services for Minorities (NAESM) all in Fulton County, Ga. That have furthered my passion for helping those less privileged like myself. Their stories reminds me of my story growing up in Africa, it inspires me to continue my volunteer service, to gain a deeper understanding of how to implement health care to underprivileged populations. My understanding of their needs and being an empathetic listener, I will be in a better position to provide my service as needed to the hurting community at large. I will be able to have a lasting impact on a diverse patient population; much like the nurses back in Africa has had on me growing up in Africa. I long to make a difference in access to healthcare for many disadvantaged populations with my Advance Practice certification. I hope to fulfill my calling of becoming an advance practice nurse that can affect disadvantaged communities and provide complete well-rounded heath care access; I am energetic and excited at the prospect of participating in Nurse Corps program, and welcome the opportunity enthusiastically. I consider it a privilege to give back and serve the underserved…
