I chose to pursue a career in healthcare because I want to positively impact others, all while making a difference and contributing to the nursing field.
When looking to start my career in nursing, I was unsure of where to begin at first, but I knew I wanted to find a program with a quicker pace. After visiting and experiencing Hondros College of Nursing’s uplifting environment firsthand, I knew Hondros was where I wanted to continue my education. Currently, I work as an administrative assistant at the Indianapolis campus in their work/study program, as well as working my retail job on the weekends.
To anyone who wants to start their education in healthcare, I would recommend that you take everything in small steps. When I found myself becoming a bit overwhelmed, I would shift my focus to see how all the progress I had made along the way added up to a bigger picture. It is also important to bring a positive and passionate attitude to the environment you will be working in. The healthcare industry can be stressful, but having a positive attitude will help a lot.
