¶ … real encounter with nursing. The encounter occurred when I first accompanied my mother to the hospital to get her treatment. That day, I felt an urgent need to become a nurse. This is because I saw that most of the nurses and other health professionals in the hospital were always pressed for time and patients, including my mother, had to wait for long periods of time before getting attended to. That experience revealed to me a gap that I was confident I could help fill in however little way I could. Realizing that the only way I could get to pursue my dream of becoming a nurse was through education, I started putting a lot of effort in school and my academic performance is proof of that. However, being brought up by a single mother compounded what was already a difficult situation. My mother had to go through a lot of financial struggles to put me through school. Now that I am older, I have come face to face with many financial pressures myself. This has made me appreciate and respect what she did for me. This scholarship would help me to get closer to my dream of becoming a nurse by easing the financial burden associated with pursuing a degree in nursing.
I am applying for this scholarship because I have a financial burden. By getting the scholarship, I would be able to pursue my dream career in nursing.

I volunteered in different nursing homes which I will mention later on in this essay. The volunteer experience helped me gain critical thinking and problem solving skills that would definitely come in handy later on in my nursing career. I have also worked as an assistant teacher. My interactions with students has helped me to improve my communication skills and to become more relatable, attributes that I know for sure would make a better nurse. I was at first assisting others on a small scale via voluntary work, but with the knowledge and skills that I will acquire from the Nursing program, I strongly believe that my ability to assist others will be increased once I am a CNS.
I have worked in Dr. Colgan's Residential Home as an 'Elderly Caregiver'. Here, I improved the client's life quality and also offered conversation and companionship through contributing to a positive living environment. I provided help and stabilization with everyday activities and also took it upon myself to prepare meals and clean up the dishes. Additionally, I provided appointment and medication reminders and helped with toileting, bathing, grooming and incontinence matters. On top of these, I carried out other duties assigned to me and reported any considerable variations in a client's living conditions or needs. I also worked as a volunteer nurse…
A naturally devoted individual, my commitment to my academic course of study and to the health care profession will become further evident in graduate school, where I will meet with esteemed professors, mentors, and specialists who can help me perfect my skills and find a niche within the nursing community. While in graduate school, I intend to take advantage of internship or residency opportunities and to participate in volunteer
Nursing Scholarship I have a burning desire to work with homebound geriatrics and pediatric oncology. The compassion to help people, especially elderly and children, the belief in the ability to achieve these goals, and the unfortunate experience of my daughter losing a classmate/friend after battling cancer for eight long years has led to a deeply, burning desire to obtain nursing licensure and work with these types of people. My goals after
The researchers believe that future research should include studies with large enough sample sizes to assess whether factors associated with satisfaction vary by subgroup such as new graduates in the first year of practice. For instance, the study included mostly white females, leaving the reader to wonder if males or people from different ethnicities or from different age groups have their own unique criteria for work satisfaction. Supporting this
Caring for others has also been my primary means of self-expression, the one way I have been able to give back to the community and hopefully enhance the lives of others.

With advanced nursing credentials I will enjoy an increased level of responsibility and the option
