Graduated High School: Loved the idea of nursing but went into business instead because I didn't think the nursing schedule would allow enough family time.
Didn't like having to take home projects and work in internships so I dropped out of college
Continued taking general education classes in college
Made several nurse friends and discovered I did like their schedule/availability/lifestyle. Finally decided to pursue nursing.
Started and graduated EMT school
Started working on an ambulance
Finished my prerequisites for nursing and was ready to apply to programs.
Started working in an ER to gain hospital experience
Continued my education online to obtain my general AA/AS
Started applying for nursing schools but kept getting rejections despite my experience and qualifications.
COVID pandemic shut down schools
Graduated with general AA/AS
Schools began to open nursing programs and lift requirements
Finally an answered prayer and after numerous applications I am accepted into nursing school at UUN!
I would like to work as a new grad for a few years in an ER.
I would also like to consider getting my MSN so that I may work as an instructor.
