My Future Career


I am currently in the nursing program here at Farmingdale. I want to be a nurse because i have had nothing but good experiences with nurses. I want to be that person that lifts the patient and their family’s spirits to keep them positive and help them get through their day and be that person that families would turn to and trust the care of their loved one too. My desire to become a nurse started when my Grandpa had a stroke and was in the Intensive Care unit. I found myself so interested in everything that was going on.  The nurses taking care of my grandpa were so kind, compassionate, helpful and willing to educate. Their main focus was keeping my grandpa comfortable. Anytime the nurse did anything to my grandpa she explained what she was doing to me. At a time when most people would be very emotional and upset, my whole entire world and my way of thinking changed.  I realized that I was very comfortable in this very serious environment.  I realized I could put aside my emotions, detach myself from the situation, focus on what needed to be done, step up to the plate, be strong and care for another person. I also love to learn and in nursing there is always new technology and advancements being made.
