Nursing Scholarship
Nursing is not only a career choice, but it is also a calling. I developed a deep desire of serving people and promoting the well-being since I was young. I have an empathetic heart of helping people physically, emotionally and socially when they are in vulnerable moments. I desired to join a nursing school and become a registered nurse to help the community through performing diagnostic tests, providing treatment and educating patients on disease prevention and management. However, after I graduate RN school, I desire to further my education and become a nurse practitioner. I want to make a difference in my community, and I would like to subspecialize in some areas such as women's health and aging populations. I want to meet the unique needs of both young and old women. My goal is to ensure that the patients receive high-quality healthcare and more importantly, reduce hospital readmissions and hospitalization. I also desire to focus on analyzing the risk factors, offer individualized treatment plans and provide evidenced-based education on prevention and management. As a nurse practitioner, I will not only provide high-quality health care, but I will also act as a counselor and researcher.
