30yearsmaking

Thank you Purple-Rose! I will correct the spelling errors that you have pointed out. What if I inserted this at the end of paragraph 2 - I truly believe that nursing is a calling. I hear that calling louder than ever. Nursing is something that I not only want to do, but feel the need to do.

I have been out of school for more years than I would like to admit. I haven't wrote a paper since then. Please let me know what you think and how I can improve it. Thank you in advance! State briefly why you wish to become a lpn, why you believe you will be a good nurse and what you feel your duties and responsibilities will be. My journey to become a Licensed Practical Nurse started over 30 years ago. First with volunteering as a candy striper at my local hospital and then completing the CNA and Medical Assisting program while in high school. Regrettable, after my high school career ended, it seems that I lost my focus and let life get in the way. Less than 2 years ago, my daughter suffered a severe injury. We spent months in the hospital. The nurses that I encountered were a life saver, not only for my daughter, but for me. These men and women have shown me that this is the profession that I was meant to be in. I believe that I already process a few of the skills need to be a licensed practical nurse, I am empathetic, patient, flexible, a multi-tasker and have a passion to care for others. With those skills, and the skills that I will obtain at (school), I be able to fulfill my duties, responsibilities and a desire to be a licensed Practical Nurse.
