My grandfather was an old man for a long time. For almost half of his life, he has been taken care of by professional nurses. This caused my family to spend so much to be able to provide the health care services needed by my grandfather. And because we had to spend so much on this aspect, certain sacrifices on the other aspects must be made. This is my motivation to becoming a nurse: so that I could provide health care services to my own family.
I am not saying that if ever something happened to my family the same with what happened to us with my grandfather, God forbid it does not, I will be the one taking care of him. No. What I am saying is that I could help so that expenses will be less. I could also to see to it that my family members are properly taken care of. Another reason why I want to become a nurse is to have personal knowledge about health care. I would like to teach my family members and my children about taking care of themselves. I could develop our family’s care programs.
I could also provide first aid in cases of emergency. Through these things, I could already contribute to my family in getting by. I could contribute my knowledge about health care and nursing. I could also contribute my services so that we will no longer have to spend so much to employ a 24-hour attendant. We could also avoid having have to go to the hospital a lot. And lastly, I admire the nobility of the profession. It is a servant’s profession. According to the Bible, if you want to be great in the Kingdom of God, learn to the servant of all. I believe nurses will be great in God’s Kingdom.
