When I was seven years old‚ I went on a field trip to the Jim Cherry Memorial planetarium in Atlanta‚ Georgia. The theme that day was travelling thru space‚ they enhanced the experience by making the sets moving. It was astonishing‚ how something so far away seems so contiguous. At that moment‚ I knew that I had to learn more. I went home that same day and ask my mom what all she knew about space‚ but she did not know very much. The following day‚ I started doing my research when I was capable of

Throughout my education‚ science based courses have been a central core. One course that left an indelible mark was called‚ “Medical Careers”.

Philosophy of Nursing Education For as long as I can remember‚ I have always wanted to be a nurse. As an 8-year-old‚ I practiced nursing in a makeshift hospital tucked safely away under the back porch of my tiny‚ row home. I cared for squirming kittens in my "nursery"‚ sleeping dolls being whisked to surgery‚ and a line of "injured" young friends from my neighborhood in my bustling emergency room. I have certainly ventured a long way from my imaginary hospital‚ but I must admit that nursing has never

How can we keep history from repeating itself and avoid the demise of the DNP like the others did (ND‚ DNSc‚ etc)? In order to maintain doctor of nursing practice (DNP) programs‚ these programs need to stay focused on their originally concepted focus and maintain this focus over time. DNP programs should never be allowed to be an entry-level degree for nurses. DNP programs need to be maintained at a level where the time‚ credits‚ and costs invested in the programs are congruent with the credentials

I went to school‚ attended after school care an I had BMX practice. Pulling up to the track‚ it should have been like any normal day‚ except the smell of smoke lingering from the night before when a group teens broke into and burnt down our moto shed.
