After high school I plan to go to college and become a Registered Nurse. The reason why I would like to have this job is, because I like working with people to help them with illness and new diseases. This job is preparing you for the real world and new age. I would like to attend Xavier University due to the fact that I don’t want to move out of state and be away from my family. Another reason is, because this school major in what I want to be.



The profession that I’m choosing is to be a Registered Nurse. This profession is an allied profession that seeks to promote health, prevent diseases, and help patients with illnesses. Nurses provide care for the sick injured, and disabled under the direct supervision of physicians. There are three kinds of registered nurses. Nurses are responsible for the following actions; providing direct care, assisting physicians during surgery, treatment and exams, administrating medication and assisting in convalescent rehabilitatio.

Due to an aging Registered Nurses workforce and the increase in the number of individuals requiring healthcare qualified of Registered Nurses are in high demand. Today people is sicker in this world due to new diseases and illness and due to crime rate, death rate, and birth rates. Every day a baby is born and every day someone is killed and that leaves a job for the registered nurse. Because jobs in traditional hospital nursing positions are no longer the only option, RNs will have many more employment choices. Positions for RNs are available in offices and clinics of physicians and other health practitioners, home healthcare agencies, nursing homes, schools, residential care facilities and social service agencies.

The Requirements to become a Registered Nurse are a Bachelors of science degree in Nursing, an associate degree in Nursing and a diploma. Their they have an Associate Degree Nursing Program that will help and guide you. The Associate Degree Nursing program incorporates a base of biological and social sciences with the knowledge and skills necessary for the practice of nursing in the Registered Nurse role. After successfully completing the program, graduates are eligible to take the National Council Licensure Examination and, upon satisfactory completion, they will be designated as Registered Nurses. The ADN program is fully accredited by the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission. In general, nursing education includes classroom instruction and supervised clinical experience in hospitals and other healthcare facilities (etc).

The college that I need to attend is Xavier University. This school is a private coed liberal arts historically Black Roman Catholic University that major in medical.

Over all I should be able to qualify for the Tops scholarship so that they can pay for my necessities and book and other things that I will need to become a Registered Nurse. So that should give my pockes a big break and still in all if some people don’t get a scholarship they will have to pay the government and the banks their loan back. So that’s why you do good in school for great benefits like this.

After I graduate I plan to become the successful nurse that I shrived to be. I would like to see you or maybe your kids, and their kid in the long run. I would like to be a nurse to think my mother and father and all of my teachers to say think you for pushing me this far.

It was hard for me to find out information about my job career and college that I’m going to attend. The reason is, because the class was being loud, talking, and the computers working very slowly. I really didn’t have the patience to wait so I used another for the research. I could not concentrate well either. The teacher helped me with information, because I needed help. Due to the disturbance that was made I got my information and I did start my report.
