    “Never worry about numbers. Help one person at a time, and always start with the person nearest you.” -Mother Teresa. When I was little, I was constantly sick, between strep throat and sinus infections I somehow always ended up at the doctors. The main goal of my hospital stays were to make me feel better, not only physically but mentally as well. No matter how sick I was, somehow when a person in a white coat came into the room, they boosted my spirits. I want to be that person who can walk into a room and make someone feel better. The question I wish you would have asked me was, why do I want to become a physician assistant? The answer to that question came easy to me.…

    When I was young, I already know what I wanted to be when I grow up, and that is to become a Pediatrician. The reason why I wanted to become a Pediatrician was because my younger brother has a weaker immune system than I have, and he gets sick easily than I do. Growing up in a poor family, I noticed that getting quality care or immediate health attention for the rest of my family, my grandparents, uncles, aunts, and cousins was impossible. That’s when I decided to change my career goal, and that is to be a Nurse Practitioner. The reason why I wanted to become a Nurse Practitioner is because the quality of my care for my whole family will be greater and convenient will be convenient for them, and I will be the very first person in the family who’ll pursue for a higher educational attainment.…

    I want to go into the pediatric nursing field for many reasons. I really enjoy working with kids especially little children. Volunteering at a saturday school with 4-5 year olds I became very good and comforting a child when sad or lonely. I work well with little children and enjoy being with them. I also want to go into nursing because every time I go to the doctors I always feel as if the nurses there do not enjoy their job. Which is probably wrong but they just always seem so monotone. I am half japanese so every summer when I go over to Japan and need to go to the doctors, the nurses there are always smiling trying to ease the tension between the child and the nurse themselves and that is the kind of nurse I want to be. I want to be a nurse like that in America to show people how much of a difference it could make and could lead to less fear of the doctors office. I see…

I enjoy being a nurse. The rewards are endless. I am searching for further advances within this career. This is why I chose to continue my education with Lincoln Technical Institute. Moving forward with an Associate’s Degree in Nursing will enhance potential advances. I want to really be the person that provides good care for people when they are ill. My ultimate goal is to become an ARNP at some point. With my ARNP I plan to open a public clinic to provide health care to those who are financially challenged. Essentially my passion that I possess as a nurse professional places me in a position to not want to see anyone go without health care. Through my experiences an Administrator and a Director of Nursing, I was able to not only provide some form of health care to the elderly but I also was able to provide a comfortable place for them to live. In some instances the resident or resident’s family could not afford the monthly living expenses it took to reside at the community in which I managed. I however was in a position to give rent allowances for those that were in that type of predicament. Needless to say I felt real joy knowing that I could help an individual and families from more than one angle. I am a patient advocate and I promote what’s ethically right for people. Acquiring my Associate’s Degree in Nursing from Lincoln Technical Institute will bring me steps closer to fulfilling my desire to become an ARNP respectively!…
