nurses play a vital role in healthcare systems. Do you agree or disagree?

Growing up in a family of healthcare providers, I have developed an understanding of the demands and rewards of working as a

nurse

.

However

, it was the COVID-19 pandemic that had the biggest impact on my decision to become a registered

nurse

. I could see how the real heroes of patient

care

saved many of my friends and relatives. I saw the

care

provided to acutely ill patients and how it alleviated their sufferings and of their families.

This

reinforced my everlasting enthusiasm for a career as a

nurse

. As I have always been keen to learn biology and chemistry, these two subjects were always my chosen subjects in high school.

Also

, the pandemic shaped my passion so much that I did a weeklong observation in a

care

home where I observed the challenges and rewards of looking after vulnerable and frail elderly people. The

care

provided by healthcare staff was necessary to ensure their mental and physical wellbeing. I observed the importance of communication skills and teamwork in delivering good and efficient

care

for the residents. As I wanted to be a registered

nurse

, I chose to come to the

UK

as they provide world-class education, and the NHS is the best place for anyone who wants to fulfil their dream of working as a

nurse

. I am aware that

UK

Universities meet the high standards set by The Nursing and Midwifery Council and the placements will give me a unique opportunity to have

first

-hand experience of the healthcare system in the

UK

. I understand that

UK

universities provide a good learning culture for students. My relatives live in the Midlands so it

also

influenced my decision to apply for a nursing placement in

this

part of the country. A career as a

nurse

involves physical activities and I am naturally a person who wants to be physically active. My personal activities include football, swimming, and jogging. I learned resilience, leadership, and teamwork as a football player. Thank you for considering my application.
