Hello!  This is my first blog and I look forward to building on it and visiting each one of yours! 5 years ago I obtained my associate nursing degree and began working  in a small town emergency room/hospital.  Although I'm loving every new experience that arises, I know there are so many different areas of nursing available with a bachelors.  Many hospitals and clinics are requiring further education prior to being hired. Becoming a nurse anesthetist is my ultimate goal and I  realize it will take time and dedication. Furthering my education will open doors to many opportunities, financially and socially.

The week after the 4th of July, I'm going up to a resort with my mom and nephew for a few days to enjoy the outdoors!  Being from Marshall originally, it's always a treat to "get away" and travel.  Playing tennis, golfing, taking classes at the YMCA, and jogging are all activities I spend my free time enjoying. Hopefully, I'll make it to a twins game this year, in another state!  It's fun visiting different outdoor stadiums.  Baltimore, Washington, and Boston are a few stadiums I've had the chance to check out. Enjoy the upcoming holiday and here's to getting your homework done early so you can enjoy it!

So what is the greatest upside to nursing besides helping people?

Helping the patient physically or mentally is the main goal, but gaining knowledge of how to deal with people from varying backgrounds made me grow as a nurse. I get better with each experience. Everyone comes from such different backgrounds that it takes time to know how to handle specific situations. I am more outgoing and joke with my patients. I realize which ones want to joke and which ones need you to just listen. Nursing is great in that there are so many different specialty areas to choose from.
