Image of Nursing

I found this photo through a google search on caring, because I believe caring about your patient is the most impactful part of being a nurse. When you become a nurse, you take on the responsibility of treating, assessing, counseling, caring, etc. for others. This responsibility is something not to be taken lightly because you are being trusted to care for other people’s families, friends, and partners. I decided I wanted to become a nurse because I love to care for others. I was very confused as to where I wanted to start out in the medical field, and I was drawn to nursing because of the diversity of ways I could continue to care for and serve people. My grandmother was also a nurse for over 50 years, and was very successful. She was the head nurse in the hospital she worked in for many years, and even was able to work as a nurse internationally. She is so inspiring to me, and in the future I would like to become a Nurse Practitioner to continue my education in nursing.
