I’m newly starting out in the healthcare field and am excited to pursue a career as a nursing aide. During my clinical experience, I had a great time learning hands-on skills and working directly with patients, which confirmed my passion for caregiving. I also gained valuable personal experience by helping care for my grandmother, who has diabetes and is on dialysis. That experience taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of proper daily care, all of which I hope to bring to my role as a nursing aide.
