Absolutely Nursing

Hello everyone. My name is Juan Barnés and I am in my last year of nursing at the Interamerican University of Puerto Rico. I have a previous degree in Multinational
Business and was working as a flight attendant when I decided it was time to do something more meaingful in my life. I think I had started going through my mid-life crises when I decided to look into nursing. I found it to be a fascinating field with endless choices and opportunities. All of the sudden I started meeting people who were in the field and the more I learned about it, the more I was convinced that this would be the right move and choice for me. And to this day I have no regrets at all. I love it and feel very passionate about it. I still do not know yet what field I want to specialize in, but medical-surgical nursing will be one of my choices. I hope that once I get my feet wet in a healthcare setting I will be able to pinpoint with more accuracy what the best fit will be for me. Professionaly I want to be the best nurse I could be in one specific specialized field. My most immediate short term goals are to graduate from the program in May 2010 and pass the NCLEX. My long term goal is to eventually teach at the undergraduate level. I am very excited and thrilled about the new career I am about to embark on. And with an open heart and a loving spirit, I plan to fully absorb every experience along the path.
