My Name Is Amber And You're Finna Read About Me And My Future Career. Being A

Registered nurse (RNs) perform many jobs. RN's provide and coordinate patient care, educate

patients and the public about various health conditions, and provide advice and emotional

support to patients and their family members. Registered nurse has multiple duties which are

monitoring record, and report symptoms or changes in patients' conditions , maintain accurate,

detailed reports and records, record patients' medical information and vital signs, order,

interpret, and evaluate diagnostic tests to identify and assess patient's condition, modify patient

treatment plans as indicated by patients' responses and conditions, direct or supervise less-

skilled nursing or healthcare personnel or supervise a particular unit, consult and coordinate

with healthcare team members to assess, plan, implement, or evaluate patient care

plans,monitor all aspects of patient care, including diet and physical activity,Instruct individuals,

families, or other groups on topics such as health education, disease prevention, or childbirth

and develop health improvement programs, and prepare patients for and assist with

examinations or treatments. I became interested in this field when I was around the age of eight

or nine years old. My mother inspired me to want to become a nurse. Seeing her in her scrubs

made me want to wear them when I got older. She took me to her job sometimes and I really

enjoyed being there.

 In-order to be an successful registered nurse, you will need patients , outstanding

communication skills , polite , kind , caring , non judgemental , I have all of these aspects that's

why this career fits me, Helping people that's ill is what is beyond important to me. RN

education degree requirements range from a diploma to a bachelor's degree. Diploma programs

are offered at hospitals and typically last three years. Associate's degrees in nursing are offered

at community colleges and take two to three years to complete.

In terms of a daily schedule registered nurses can often be found working 5-8 hour days, 4-

10 hour days or 3-12 hour days per week. RN's that work 8 or 10 hour days typically work about

40 hours or so per week, however nurses that work 12 hour days may end up working around

36 hours per week. I Wouldn't Travel Unless Necessary or if I wanted to be a traveling nurse

which I do not. With the hours I would tend to get a little stressed out but by me not having kids

it will be the perfect fit for me.

A registered nurse was $32.66, according to the BLS. The top 10 percent earned at least

$45.54 per hour, while the lowest-paid 10 percent earned no more than $21.65. Rn benefits are

Paid holidays, sick leaves, paid-Time off (PTO) and life insurance.I plan to life a small simple life

therefore becoming an rn would more than likely have enough money coming in for me to live

my life as planned.Registered Nurse Job Outlook. According to national data published by the

U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), employment for registered nurses (RNs) is expected to

increase 16% by 2024, which is faster than the national average for all other occupations.
 Becoming a Registered Nurse is something i'm very passionate and serious about, it's the

perfect career for me. I have an innate desire to help people and care for them in times of need.

I am also a person who thrives on being challenged and I always have new goals to achieve, so

nursing will suit me as few other careers offer as much diversity and learning opportunities.The

shifts may get long and certain aspects of the job will inevitably become routine, but i don't think the

life of a nurse is ever boring. Whether i'm working out of a hospital, a private practice or a palliative

care center, I would have to be ready to respond to just about anything at a moment's notice.

I need to be in a fast-paced work environment. In nursing, every day should be different, so there's

always something new to figure out. Working as a nurse should keeps me on my toes. I hope to

accomplish a lot working threw out this field is finding myself as a person. I want to be able to help

millions of ill people I want to be able to help anyone that come to the ER !
