UBCO Reflection
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.

    Once upon a time there was a nursing student named Jensen Richards. Jensen had always had a passion for nursing and compassion for people. This compassion only grew stronger once she was old enough to work in a nursing home as a CNA. Going to Oshkosh for nursing seemed to be an easy choice for Jensen; it was the only school on her mind. Her parents both attended Oshkosh and it was the perfect distance from home. Jensen knew that she would have to work really hard in college because the average GPA for nursing students was higher than she had received in high school. Ready to take on the challenge, Jensen changed her study habits. Although there are many nursing schools in Wisconsin, Oshkosh is one of the best schools in the state. There…

    Nursing is a noble profession. Challenges are the daily norm and being self-driven by the desire to care is a must. And just as challenging is the task of remaining motivated while in nursing school. From all-night study sessions, trips to library for references on new case studies, never ending group and individual assignments to clinical attachments to social obligations, staying focused on graduating can become a cumbersome task for any student nurses, just like in the case of student nurse Jane who is on her (PRCP Pre-Registration Clinical Placement) which is her last clinical posting before she steps into the world of nursing.…

    Being in the medical field for the past ten years, I have seen the growth and changes in the medical field. When I began my nursing career as a medical assistant, I noticed many other nurses continuing their education to be able to have greater hands on approach in nursing. This opened my eyes to the endless possibilities that a nurse can do, whether it’s with direct patient care or being a resource to patients and other nurses around. After completing my RN in May of 2015, I decided that I really enjoyed being a mentor and teacher to other nurses. That is why I am continuing on with my education in hopes to one day receive my Master’s degree in Nursing and be able to utilize the knowledge and skills that I build, to educate patients. I still…
