2024, what a year. The year I finally became a registered nurse. The journey began when I gained admission into school in 2021. It was a three-year nursing program, to graduate and become a registered nurse, licensed to practice. But the journey wasn’t easy.
Although I graduated in it, 2024 was the toughest part of the journey. I was in my final year and also the assistant class representative and the speaker of the House of Senate in the Student Union Government. I had to juggle academics with school politics. I had a client case study to write, a project, multiple quizzes and exams, including the professional Nursing Council exam which was held in November. But I strived. I studied, prayed, cried, got tired but kept on moving.
At the end of it all, I came out successful in all my exams without any carryover, I passed my professional nursing council exam and I am proud to say that I am a registered nurse. A licensed and registered!
