Pediatric Nurse Practitioner Powerpoint

  
 
My Profile: I have been blessed by being excepted into the Honors Mentorship at Forsyth Central High School. This is my junior year, and last year at the end of my sophomore year my teaching teacher Mr. Walkup told me about this program. So, I got the application, and did the requirements to apply. Which were where I had to write three small essays, and get two recommendation from a past teacher and in my case my youth group leader. Then I recieved a letter telling me that I was excepted!  For one of the essays that I had to write for my application I had to explain what I wanted to do as my career. I explained how I want to become a nurse at a practitioner at a pediatrician office. I came to the realization that I wanted this to be my career at the beginning of my freasan year.it all started when my cousin was just finishing up her nursing degree at North Georgia, and was starting to send applications to other schools to get her Nurse Practitioner degree. I was becoming really interested when she told us about her classes and what they had to do for them. I never really thought that I actually wanted to become anything like that at the time, because I had my mind set on being a teacher so I could work with children. Then I started having to go to the doctors more frequently for my asthma, and I found myself excited to go because I could see the doctors and everything they did. I started to push the dream of becoming a teacher in the back of my mind, and started focusing on becoming a doctor. I finally told my parents about my new dream of what I wanted to become, and they supported me a hundred percent. My dad even was telling me about that I could go into any kind of practice like cardiology, ENT, asthma, and etc., but none of them really stuck out to me. So I went and talked to my cousin and she told me the difference between a doctor, nurse practitioner, and a physician assistant. I liked the nurse practitioner the best, because she said that the nurse practitioner can do anything they think needs to be done without a doctor's consent. Also, they have great hours with great pay, and do not have to be on call like the doctor. So, I then made my decision of wanting to officially be a nurse practitioner, but I was still unsure of what practice I wanted to go into. A month later, I had to go to my pediatrician for a physical, and I still had no idea of what kind of nurse practitioner I wanted to become. I found myself sitting in the waiting room at the pediatrician office surrounded by newborn babies, toddlers, and their parents. I loved it, and then it hit me that I could put my two dreams into one, which would be becoming a nurse practitioner and working with children. I have always had a love and care for children, so I thought what better way to give that that by becoming a nurse practitioner at a pediatrition office.
My Mentorship: For my Mentorship I go to Campbell Family Medicine located in The Collection at Forsyth, and I go every Thursday and Friday. My mentor is Mrs. Natalie; she is the business manager for the office. Many days I shadow Dr. Campbell as she works with her patients. Keisha works at the front desk and I help her set out and display the medicine in the front of the office for the patients to see. I also help Katie, the nurse practitioner, get bags ready for patients to have their blood drawn. Many times I have also helped Natalie prepare spreadsheets for them to show patients.
My Future: After I graduate high school I plan to go to college to get my nursing degree, and then go on to get my nurse practitioner degree. I believe that this Mentorship will help me in many ways. I know that many people to excel in something when they have already had many experiences with it, and I believe I can get that from Campbell Family Medicine. At CFM I have had the privilege to experience the medical and business parts of working in a doctors office. Another thing that I can help me from this Mentorship is being able to have someone who can potientially write recommendation letters for me. These many experiences that I will encounter at CFM will help prepare me for the things that the medical field will have to test me with.

     Hey, I just wanted to write a letter to the people who read my blog. I feel like you guys are partners in my education, because y'all are reading everything that I do within my internship. I just want y'all to know that I am loving my experience with my internship, and I'm so glad I get to share it with yall! I can not wait to show and tell y'all more about what I get to do through this internship. Thanks Guys!!

    Also, I wanted to explain to y'all that I have meet some of my goals that I have set myself for this internship already!! I am finally not afraid to share my own voice in a conversation, and when the doctor asks me a for my opinion on a question. Also, Dr. Campbell told me that I am doing very well!
I haven't actually changed any of my goals though. I still have the same outlook of medicine when I walked into this internship, and that is that I love it, and I'm excited to one day be in the place of Dr. Campbell!

   Whenever I go for my internship, Natalie has me shadowing Dr. Campbell, or just doing some extra work to help them stay caught up in the office. I help mmake many spread sheets, and do research on things for Dr. Campbell. Whenever I leave after days like these they tell me how much help I am to them, and I am very happy that I can help!  

                                                                             Thanks Guys,
