Summary
I aspire to become a nurse because I yearn to make a positive and meaningful difference in the lives of those I encounter. While kindness is something I can offer as an individual, as a healthcare professional, I have the privilege of supporting and caring for patients during some of their most vulnerable moments—medically, emotionally, and spiritually. Many patients come to the hospital seeking more than just medical care—they often lack stable shelter, nourishment, or a support system. As a nurse, my role extends beyond healing physical ailments; I am committed to championing humility and compassion. I look forward to embodying the true essence of nursing. To me, nursing is a calling shaped by life’s challenges and academic setbacks that have strengthened my resilience and resolve.
