NURSES If Florence Could See Us Now
Watching the movie NURSES If Florence Could See Us Now made me realize how important nurses are to the population and the impact we make. I enjoyed this movie and felt connected to what the speakers were saying. I cannot say I learned anything from this movie but rather it was a movie that I felt connected to, and became emotional to in some scenes. It felt wonderful to hear the impact we make in even the simplest of matters and how much of a personal experience our job is.
In preparing for an interview to set myself apart from other applicants, I plan to show my true self and make sure they know my beneficial aspects to their floor/unit. I will most definitely research the organization’s missions and practice models to ensure that I resonate with their beliefs. In discussing my clinical experiences I will go in depth on the hours I have performed and the floors I have participated on. I also would add my CNA work experience and, because I want to specialize in oncology, to benefit myself more, I will discuss my position as a CNA on Maine Medical’s Oncology Unit. A major challenge I have is having confidence in myself. I am extremely hard on myself and I let it show through my work occasionally. I take things very personal and to heart which can make me emotional. To try and address this I set little, reasonable, goals for myself and when something goes wrong or not how I planned I talk myself through it.
