Graduate / 'even more equipped' - Physician Assistant Narrative on CASPA [4]
I've always been drawn to the health care field. I started my college career with a plan to be a pharmacist, switched to nursing, but finally found my calling to be a Physician Assistant.
I know that I have been wired to be a health care provider. I love people. It does not matter what walk of life they are from, or their age. I have compassion for them and can easily talk to them. This has enabled me to connect with patients, earn their trust, and provide effective care.
I am very attracted to the career of being a Physician Assistant. Through the hours I have spent working in the hospital as a nurse's aide on the cardiac floor and shadowing an Orthopedic PA, I find it to be a perfect balance of patient contact and office time. With these hours I've realized the crucial role of being part of a health care team. I look forward to working with doctors, nurses, and techs to help the patient get well and provide quality care.
I know being a Physician Assistant I will not be limited to a single location. Job opportunities will be world wide, as there will always be people in need of medical attention. That gives me all the more reason and passion to pursue this career. I want to help as many people as I can.
The medical field is not easy in any way; from the vigorous studying to the emotional attachment to a patient. I know that I am prepared, and will be even more equipped once a Physician Assistant.
