Summary
Nurses require a certain level of care and compassion to be able to effectively advocate and care for their patients. I have been interested in caring for others for as long as I remember, and this began with my love of children. Nursing is so diverse and gives opportunity for more growth and learning, which I love. I am looking forward to years of growth in my career through direct patient care and critical thinking.
