My journey at New York City School of Technology has been nothing but very rewarding. I would not trade this learning experience for anything. The lessons learned are invaluable and I will definitely use them in my future practice as a nurse in whatever setting. The journey has been challenging at times but I have learned that with patience, hard work and determination nothing is impossible. The nursing profession has exposed me to people from various ethnicities and backgrounds and most importantly taught me the art of caring for them. I have learned how to be culture sensitive and be respectful to my patients even when my own beliefs and customs are different. Overall I think I am now better equipped with the knowledge and experience to face the challenging world of nursing.
