Specializes in Surgical/Trauma/Neuroscience/Cardiac ICU.
Hello everyone,
I just recently posted and commented on some of the threads here and I was inspired to share some of my ongoing life story as a male nurse.
How I thought of becoming a nurse?
I was in elementary school at my birth country when I decided that I would be taking RN after high school. I will be the first nurse in my family.
Nursing Profile:
I attended 2 years taking the BScN program at a University at my birth country when I needed to stop in order to immigrate to Canada. I was 18 turning 19 this time.
I went back to high school in Toronto to finish my preparatory classes for my nursing program for 2 years. I graduated class of 2011 with flying colours.
I applied and attended the RPN program at a Community College for 2 years. I graduated class of 2013. Passed the Licensure Examination. Registered Practical Nurse by CNO. I was 22 turning 23 this time.
I worked various jobs after graduation excluding nursing jobs.
I'm going back to a Community College to take my RPN bridging to BScN Graduate Certificate this fall 2014.
