My application to your distinguished master's in nursing MSN Program at the University of XXXX is inspired primarily by my job as an ER nurse at the XXXX Medical Center. I began serving here shortly after finishing my BSN Degree in May 2012. Before that time, I spent more than a year working as an ER Technician. I gravitated naturally towards service in Emergency Medicine because of my extensive military experience as Hospital Corpsman with the US Navy, to which I gave my all for 6.5 years, from June 2002 through December 8. Serving my country at home and abroad, I was especially pleased to provide medical care to service members and underprivileged people in the area where I was assigned. I hope to distinguish myself in your program as an excellent student and someone especially sensitive to and concerned with the needs of the medically underserved.
I am Cuban American, born and raised in Florida, and my wife is from Nicaragua. Her family has adopted me, and I am increasingly fond of her country. We hope to establish a primary care clinic in Nicaragua someday. I look forward to serving as a Family Nurse Practitioner for many decades, investing a lot of my energy in research geared toward creating public awareness programs concerning the prevention of cardiovascular disease, especially among Hispanics. I want to address how it is culturally and economically driven.
I feel fortunate to have gotten to where I am, given that my grandmother was my only parent growing up, absent, then in jail until I was seventeen. I barely got to know my mom as a child. My father came to see me only once and a great while.
There are many reasons I am choosing UXXX besides its excellent reputation. I have several personal contacts and friends who have studied in your program and took the time to share their marvelous experiences with me. Also, your rigorous, full-time program would allow me to complete one-third of the program with my GI bill scholarship left over from the military. Furthermore, I live nearby and could spend more time studying and driving less. Finally, my wife is in her mid-thirties and wants to have a baby, and I am telling her that I want to finish my master's first.
One of the greatest assets I hope to your program is my extensive experience in patient monitoring as part of a highly interdisciplinary team in Emergency Medicine since August 2012. I am fully immersed in the fine art of dealing with patients suffering from pain, stress, shock, and grief—managing and comforting their families. I have cared for patients in all categories in our Emergency Department, and I am skilled at intubations, defibrillations, autotransfusions, IV starts, A-line setups, splinting, suturing, etc. Often, my Spanish comes in handy. On some occasions, I have supervised LPNs and ER Technicians. I hope to continue to advance in cultivating my leadership skills, especially after completing your distinguished program at XXXX University.
Growing up on the move as a military child helped me appreciate diversity. In 2002, I would follow in my father’s footsteps and join the military, serving alongside the Marines, Navy, Army, and foreign military. I valued their health above mine for almost seven years for every patient I cared for. I have earned my undergraduate degree with distinction, and I am now ready for that next hill to climb, the next challenge, becoming an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse. My passion is to help others, and I know this program and degree will give me what I need to achieve my goal.
Still, in my early thirties, I hope to become deeply involved later in my career with medical missions and sustainable public health development in Nicaragua, my newly adopted country. For decades to come, as I labor in Central and North America, the master's degree that I hope to earn at XXXX University will continue to inspire and empower me at every turn. I thank you for considering my application to your exceptional program.
