My Objectives

My current goal is to gain placement on a medical-surgical floor for my senior practicum this spring. This experience will serve as a huge foundation for what I do with the rest of my career. It will provide me with the information and skills I need in order to become the nurse that I want to be.
One of my main objectives is to practice as a competent, ethical, and compassionate nurse throughout my career. Up to this point in my education and beginning of my nursing career, I have done just this and will continue to do so. I really believe if I hold myself to such high standards, that I will practice to the best of my ability and serve as a more than competent nurse.
After I obtain a solid foundation in nursing, I aspire to become a nurse anesthetist and practice in a public hospital on the surgical unit. This has always interested me throughout my education, but first I would like to broaden my experience as a nurse and obtain the vital skills I need to practice competently.
