I have always been interested in blood and guts. I know that sounds weird and disturbing, but the human body is absolutely amazing. What's not to like about God's greatest creation??! I enjoy looking at cadavers and dissecting organs. In AP Biology I had both my hands in a dead cat observing the kidneys, digestive organs, the heart, lungs, etc. Anatomy & Physiology is one of my greatest passions. I can't tell you how many times someone has showed me an injury or a wound expecting me to turn away. And I do the exact opposite. One of my friends asked me if I wanted to go hunting with him, and my response was can I help cut it apart. I'm gruesome I know.
I have been thinking about what department I want to be in. I have changed my mind so many times; OB, Peds, Surgery, ICU, OB again, etc. At my last clinical, I learned that there was a wound care nurse that goes around to different departments and bandages up patient's wounds whether they are children or adults. I have been told that wound care nursing is an art. Oh how I would love to dive deeper in this department! I want to learn about wounds and healing!
The cool thing about this department is that I could use it at home, with my friends, and even other countries if I get the opportunity. I would love to be able to travel to trauma centers in other countries and apply my nursing skills. So many opportunities out there!!!
Where ever God leads me . . . . .
