Making a Difference

I want to be able to make a difference in someone else life by using my gift of helping people in the time of need and showing respect to every individual I meet. There are many ways you can help people. I believe I was born to care for people. Knowing that I helped someone else makes me feel great about myself. I chose being a cna because I knew it was the first step I could take in making a difference in someone else life. My gift of helping people and showing respect to every individual in the work that I do as a cna, been exercised every day. I work in a nursing home. I have a lot of respect for the elderly. Cna’s genuinely care for others. Being a cna for 14 years has changed me in many ways. Making a difference in my children lives, teaching them to follow their dreams, and telling them to accomplish what ever makes them happy in life is important to me. I have to teach my children that finishing high school and pursuing a career is important. Teaching my children to respect everyone and treating people, as you want to be treated, will take them a long way in life. Volunteering at church, nursing homes, and schools are other ways I feel like a make a difference. I volunteer at my church when we have dinners or activity functions with the members. Going to nursing homes to read or do activities with the resident has been a big volunteer project for me. Helping others has always been my passion. Giving the gift of caring, showing love, giving help to other in the time of need, and showing respect to others shows my character in many ways. I will always try to make a difference in someone life with the gift that I have of helping when I can.

    Ever since I was young, I was always interested in the idea of helping people other than myself. I never knew the actual meaning of truly helping another person until October, 2010, my freshman year. My resolve for helping others sparked into a flame when I visited a church in San Jose where I experienced something that would completely change my life. At this church, there was an organization called Milal that helps take care of people with disabilities. It was in that place that I was able to learn the true meaning of helping others.…

    why i want to be a CNA

    Why I want to be a CNA... I don't understand, while being a CNA is hard, it is not rocket science. You basically have to work, and care. So many CNAs don't do either one. I don't know how they go home and sleep knowing that they left their residents soaked, cold, and dirty. Why don't they just go work at a gas station. Very few things make me as angry as when the residents are not getting the care they DESERVE. I want the opportunity every day to make an impact on people's lives in a positive and much needed way. We, future CNA's, get paid for more than simply washing people, making beds and all of the other tasks that go along with the job. We have chosen a profession that demands caring from us. We need to show patience and compassion daily, no matter what. People may think that becoming a CNA is a job just anyone can do. This is not true! It takes a certain type of person to do the work of a nursing assistant. I am proud to be a Future CNA! Yes, I may become "only a CNA" in the eyes of some people, but to others I will be much more.…

    For nearly three years, I have worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant in the Medical Intermediate care unit, located at Wheaton Franciscan All-Saints Ascension. I began my work as a CNA at sixteen, during my junior year of high school, and have continued to work at Wheaton ever since. The interview process for my position was exceptionally competitive, hiring only three out of fifty applicants. The unit that I work on serves a broad spectrum of patients: from intensive care, psyche, detox, and post-op, to hospice care and rehabilitation. From a young age, I have excelled as a healthcare professional, and working as a CNA, I can definitely say my experience has been life changing.…

    The most important thing to me is success; it's a thing I must have. Success can mean a lot of different things to different people; it just depends on the person. Success to me is a business standpoint; I have so many goals I've set for myself business and financial wise, success comes to me in those ways. In order for me to feel like I've actually succeeded in life I must reach these goals. If I reach these goals I have many plans that will contribute to the benefiting of society, like starting a camp for all types of kids. It would be somewhere they could go in the summer to stay out of trouble and have tons of fun without the risk of going through many of the pressures children experience while out with friends hanging out at home.

    While I think that my humanitarian efforts are noble, people often tell me that I am “too” nice. I find it very hard to be rude and disrespectful; it’s just not in my nature. It brings me joy to see people helping others, and it brings me even more joy to help people who are less fortunate. I would agree with the statement that I am “too nice, for instance people tend to take advantage of me because they see the niceness in me. I believe Howard University will help diminish my weakness of being a passive person by being involved in many of the organizations that Howard University has to offer. I plan on using my humanitarian efforts toward different leadership roles. I believe when you respect people and serve a role as a leader; no person will take advantage of a respectful leader.…

    I should say that I really started with the passion of helping others when I was able to help out at my church after I gotten out of school where there was an after school program called C.H.A.M.P.S. I tutored the children who was a part of the after school program. My responsibility to help the children made me have this uplifting feeling because I perfectly understood that I have some knowledge that I can share with other them. At the same time, I know that many children do not have an opportunity to get a good education but they are gifted so helping out at C.H.A.M.P.S. gave them a better opportunity.…
