Assignment #15 My Dream Job

My dream job/career is to be a Registered Nurse in the Labor & Delivery Department. Being a RN in that department requires lots and lots of patience and understanding coming from the patients. I want to do this career because I love newborn babies, I think they're so cute ! Just seeing the way that my sister looked when she had my neice, that reaction was priceless, shes one of my main inspirations to do this. I love seeing and making people happy.

The moment I saw the nurse helping my sister out when she was waiting for labor, inspired me to become a nurse in the labor and delivery department. I loved the way she made sure the mother and the baby were doing okkay every 30 minutes or so, she would check the babys heart beat, would assist my sister properly and overall just managed to take great care of her.

The nurse alerts everyone and the doctor when the patient is ready to give birth. She helps the patient wait for contractions to tell her to push, when the baby is almost out she lets the mother know so she can give one last big push. After the baby is born, the nurse checks his heartbeat, showers him, weights and check his length, and make sure he doesnt have anything in his nose, ears, and throat from the placentia. When she finishes she gives the baby back to the mother. Sometimes nurses at the request of the patient take the baby at night and let the parents sleep. The nurses make sure they get fed, they change their diapers and make the baby burp.

Becoming a Registered Nurse was also a promise I made to my father and ima keep it. Being a nurse in that department seems like full of work but it doesn't matter. I will get all the education I need and I will become one.
