1. Why did you choose to be a nurse?
I didn't, really, it was the only program available at the time that fit in my schedule. I had just had a baby and decided I needed a career, not just a job.
2.What school did you attend and why?
I attended a local tech college b/c it was a one year program (LPN). Time was of the essence since I had a new baby.
3. If you could give me some tips what would they be?
Work as a tech while you're in school if you're able to. I think that the hands on experience and ready access to nurses' brains to pick helped me out alot. Also, be prepared for a shock when you transition from nursing student to nurse...the first year is usually a little rough. Always remember ABC; keep in mind that everything about nursing is about prioritization. Be nice to your techs; they can make or break your shift!
4. How long have you been a nurse?
8 1/2 years and counting....
5.What are your likes and dislikes about nursing?
Likes: Opportunities to educate patients to help make their lives better; being able to care for people and help them when they most need it; always learning new things; team atmosphere (although it took me four years to find a floor that fit me as perfectly as possible); endless opportunities for specialization
Dislikes: "Customer service" atmosphere; unsupportive management; uncaring physicians; redundant paperwork
