Nursing personal statement
There are different heroes in this world. This aspect of the way they undertake the various activities in their lives and how they help others through their actions. Heroes do not need to have special powers but a heart to put others’ interests before theirs, just like nurses do. Nursing is a profession that I have always respected ever since I was young. This is because of the few occupations where individuals put their interests aside for the sake of others. This situation is based on the fact that nurses are always busy putting their families, their friends, and part of their lives to serve others and ensure that their patients’ wellbeing is guaranteed. Whenever I think about humanitarians, there’s no effort, which is more than that made by nurses to ensure that human lives are saved from the ever-threatening effects of ailments, accidents, and infections every day. Thus, I consider nurses as heroes who should be highly appreciated and acknowledged as they spend most of their professional life at the service of others. When thinking about a career to pursue, I can think beyond being a nurse as I admire their work, and I believe the profession will give me the highest level of satisfaction in life.
Growing up was highly impressed by how nurses undertake their duties and how they are committed to their professions and how fulfilled they have been despite being committed most of their lives. This aspect has inspired me much to want to work in healthcare. Over the years, I have undertaken different courses and activities, which would give me an insight into the various activities conducted in the field and examining the best career in the healthcare that suits me the most. This aspect motivated me to learn sciences as I believe that for one to become a part of the healthcare fraternity, they have to be useful in sciences as nursing is a science. In school, I participated in different science projects learning various aspects in subjects such as chemistry and biology. Such activities have enabled me to learn different perspectives about the human body and how different elements react, especially if they are brought in contact with other substances. Due to this reason, I have been able to gain interest in a career that would enable me to use my knowledge in biology and chemistry to help humans.
Over the years, I have become more used to undertaking different community projects. This aspect has made me more passionate about interacting with individuals with different needs and assisting them. Through such elements, I have been able to learn the virtue of helping others, and this aspect has given me great fulfillment in life. This situation had been in line with my personality as I have been very passionate about helping other people in my community. As a member of the healthcare club in high school, I learned the various healthcare principles and learned essential healthcare aspects such as first aid and general care of patients with minor issues such as nursing wounds. Through nursing, I will be able to learn the various nursing elements, which will enable me to serve patients with different needs.
After high school, I was in great confusion to identify the best career in healthcare, which would suit my passions and ambition even though I had made up my mind in being a healthcare practitioner. After evaluation of the different career paths in the field and consultation with my parents, friends in the field, and various mentors, I was convinced that nursing is the career that would suit my personality. By examining the distinct role of nurses, I realized that the profession is the best for me as it will enable me to fulfill my heart desires. Due to this reason, I am fully convinced that nursing is all I want to become in life as it makes all my dreams come true.
If granted the opportunity to undertake my studies in the institution, I will use the time and resources I will have to become a highly-skilled nurse. My acceptance in the institution will give me the best opportunity to enhance my knowledge and skills in the profession. This aspect will put me in a better position to serve patients with different health problems. Seeing myself in a healthcare institution executing my professional duties is one of the greatest dreams. This is because I have dedicated my life to others’ service as I believe dedicating one’s life for the sake of others is the greatest act of humanity. This aspect will enable me to serve the community and make the best use of my life. I will also be in a better position to mentor other youths in my community to take the initiative to become useful members of society and dedicate their lives in the service of humanity.
