I
have always found great satisfaction in helping, supporting and caring
for others and always had a keen interest in biology and physiology.
Therefore, nursing was the ideal career choice as it enables me to study
something that I am not only interested in but passionate about,
ensuring that day in, day out, I will know that I have a career in which
I am truly making a difference.

I
chose to study nursing as I love people and I loved biology in high
school – and nursing was a way that I could combine the two. I liked the
fact that Nursing is a wide field – so one day I could be working in a
medical ward, next I could be working in mental institution or in the
RFDS (Royal Flying Doctors Service).

working with people, especially in a way that would support and enhance

As a result of my first Acute Care Placement I was offered employment
as a 3rd year undergraduate student nurse in a public hospital. I then
gained experience in intensive care, general wards and psychiatric care.
My placements consisted of aged care, intensive care, paediatrics,
hospital at home, and theatre, recovery and anaesthetics. All will hold
me in good stead as my role as a Registered Nurse expands and is
enhanced by these previous experiences.
