Mayra’s Journey from RN to BSN I am not the same person and nurse that I was when I started the RN-BSN program in fall 2015. My views‚ practice‚ and professional demeanor have changed for better as a result of the knowledge and experiences acquired during this journey. My essence as a nurse is still the same‚ I believe that “nursing is a sacred work dedicated to the service of others‚ and requires a nurse’s deliberated commitment to inner spiritual growth to achieve a healing presence with patients”

My daddy served in the Navy during WWII. When the war was over he returned to states and was immediately hospitalized. He was so young and had experienced things he never wanted to think about again. However‚ he always complimented the nurses that took care of him. They helped heal his body‚ but more importantly they helped to heal his spirit and soul. I cannot count the times he said‚ “I want one of you girls to be a nurse‚” and I knew it was going to be me. What do I believe about myself

remember having a divine intervention or anything‚ nursing has always been part of me. Nursing is something I want to do‚ something I want to be and something that can be part of me till I die. I think my main source of inspiration to become a nurse definitely came from my mother. My mother worked as a nurse for 20 years in India‚ and retired about 5 years ago due to sickness in her body. She has been one of the most dedicated person I have ever seen in my life. Especially choosing a place like India was

Philosophy of Nursing Starting out in the Pre-Professional Nursing Program at Summit Technology‚ I have a preconceived philosophy of nursing. I believe a career in nursing means for a versatile path. There are so many directions nursing can take a person. To begin‚ there are different levels on where one can start. A Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) is a general baseline for a lot of beginning nurses‚ but one can further their education to become a Registered Nurse (RN) or Nurse Practitioner

My Philosophy of Nursing I am a forty-one year old wife and mother of one twelve year old daughter. I have been a nurse for eighteen years‚ thirteen of which have been in Oncology. My first job as a nurse was at a nursing home. I knew I did not want to be there long term as my goal was to be an Oncology nurse. I am not sure why I wanted to be an Oncology nurse as I did not have a close family member or friend that had suffered from Cancer‚ but I knew that is what I wanted to do. I got hired on

person understand their beliefs‚ understandings and knowledge on the field of their choosing. To start off‚ my personal philosophy on nursing is to always have respect for others at all times. In order for a person to be respected‚ they must respect everyone else. The ability to have respect for one another leads to great communication skills. As a result‚ I believe communication is the key to nursing! Without proper communication in the health care system‚ patients are the ones who can sometimes pay the

My first health concern that I noticed is that Mr. Parker stated that “he just doesn’t want to move because it is so hard for him to get up.” This information is important to me because it is subjective data. My nursing diagnostic statement is that he has impaired physical mobility r/t activity limitations imposed by current diagnosis. He has hemiplegia that was caused by a stroke. My nursing interventions for Mr. Parker would be to highly encourage him to attend physical therapy such as stroke

nervous on my first day of class as any Graduate student would‚ I read ahead on the readings and in-class assignments. The first assignment read‚ “What is your personal philosophy?” Sitting at my desk rereading the question and staring at a blank piece of paper nothing came to mind. Just coming out of the novice nurses stage‚ I found myself hung up on this specific question. Throughout my years in school and as a floor nurse

My philosophy in nursing is the devotion to deliver the utmost personal patient care I am capable of delivering to the ill‚ may it be physically‚ mentally‚ or emotional‚ as well as to the challenged in time of need. In order to define my philosophy of nursing‚ I had to take time out and re-examine my value system‚ and my beliefs. As I think about it I know I am a caring and compassionate nurse. I reminisced back to the late 70 ’s‚ my upbringing in foreign countries and having been exposed to diverse
