Being pediatric is a calling since one has to have an affection when handling children. The attachment a person gets with the paediatric patients is too much to be relinquished. Currently, I have been in the Pediatric track of nursing. However, I have changed my mind and resorted to taking on the psychiatry track. As much as the pediatric clinical was excellent as well as enjoyable, several reasons have influenced me to change towards the psychiatric route.
One of the reasons that forced me to change to the psychiatric track was the connection that I had with the patients. I felt that I developed a more excellent relationship with patients when I conducted my nursing clinical in psychiatry. The current world is experiencing discrepancies, such as wealth imbalance, that have led to the development of more disorders (Hirst, Thompson, 2019). Depression is one issue that has grown exponentially. It is with sincere regret that such an ordeal occurs. It is, therefore, necessary to have people who will deal with the issue affecting society. The deep connection I attained during my interaction with the patients has made a move worth seeking.
The process in which psychiatry seeks to correct disorders associated with the brain is another biological process of interest that is making me want a move. A human being is a social being by nature. Isolation is also one of the symptoms of people facing mental disorders (Hynie, 2018). The weight of the issue in this modernized world has been added by the development of social platforms that limit one on one socialization. Such inhibition brings a person to isolation and also what is seen might as well not match the current lifestyle experienced, thus triggering the development of mental disorders. The existence of the techno-savvy generation is one vital factor that brings the idea of moving into psychiatrists. The zeal to create a humane and habitable environment is a born virtue that cannot be compromised.
I look forward to gaining more experience in the field by having talks with the staff and also getting hands on experience. Other than one having a direct blood relation with one of the people living with a mental disorder, efforts to salvage other people will be of great benefit to society. As people age, there are various conditions associated and may affect them. When a person gets into the field of psychiatry, one can experience much of hands-on work during a carrier that it is possible to come up with other methods of treatment. Also, old age is something one cannot escape. When a person knows how schizophrenia is treated there is a high chance of establishing preventive mechanisms.
It is in psychiatry that the impact of drug abuse is felt. Various countries in the world are experiencing a hard time coping up with the issue of substance abuse among the youth. Most of them find themselves using fentanyl. Fentanyl is one of the most significant contributors, which has penetrated markets, to these deaths. Care and stabilization of these patients are only possible when a person knows how to carry out the procedures. I aim at making sure that these patients get enough care to take them through the recovery process. The zeal created by the great connection with the patients can inspire the realization of such an objective.
In conclusion, the growing capitalist regime will cause harm to the psychiatry department. There is a need for individuals to rise and combat some of the many side effects brought about by the impact of technology. Also, other associated disorders can have preventive methodologies when one gains experienced. It will thus be of great benefit to moving to psychiatry.
