About Me
I am a new RN who left my stable, good job at the United States Postal Service after 13+ years to achieve my goal of becoming a nurse. I graduated in May, 2008 and returned to the University of Akron already to their RN to BSN program where I will graduate in May, 2009. My goal is to continue on and get my Master's and become a CRNA. I have two wonderful kids: a 17-year-old son and 6-year-old daughter. My biggest challenge right now is becoming oriented to my first job as a RN in the Progressive Care Unit, which is the ICU Stepdown in a small, community hospital. I am feeling very overwhelmed right now, and I wonder if I will ever acquire all the skills I need to become a proficient RN!!! Anyway, I enjoy spending time with my kids and making new friends!
Hobbies:
Camping, Dining Out, Gardening, Hiking, Photography, Traveling, Movies, Outdoors, Spending time with my kids
Favorite Movies:

    Thanks for your invitation. I can still remember how it felt being a new nurse. I was advised by the Nurse Administrator that I "looked like I would do well in Emergency Room and crosstraining in ICU" I had asked to work in OB but she said they did not need anyone. Of all the departments in the hospital ER and ICU were the least on my list. I was a nervous wreck for the first six months and then I started to learn so many skills I started feeling more confident as a real nurse. I am sure it won't take as long for you to feel more confident. My thoughts are with you,

    You will get there and then you will wonder why you were feeling so overwhelmed! One day, you will run across someone in that same situation and you will remember :) Don't forget those guys!
