I started out spending several years as a store manager. This position allowed me to step into the role of being a leader, someone others could depend on, who could also make the necessary hard decisions. This position helped make me who I am today, but I knew that I always wanted to do more and help others. I knew that my heart belonged in nursing.
I was drawn to Hondros College of Nursing because of its strong reputation for academic excellence and the comprehensive clinical training it offers. The opportunity to learn from experienced faculty and gain hands-on experience in a variety of healthcare settings really appealed to me. I also value the school's commitment to patient-centered care, which aligns with my own values of compassion and service. Additionally, the supportive and collaborative learning environment here will help me grow both personally and professionally, preparing me to make a meaningful impact in the nursing field.
Nursing school can be overwhelming with the amount of material you need to learn. Use planners, calendars, or digital apps to help you keep track of various assignments, clinical hours, and exams. Staying organized is vital to managing your time and reducing stress. If you’re even thinking about nursing school, then it may be for you!
