472 Words2 Pages

When I started college I was pre-med, but I soon realized that medical school is not the best fit for me, but my interest in health care did not waver. After, I started working on my major; I realized that I would like to focus on women’s health and on the fight for women’s health. I am aware of the changes in health care and policies needing to reviewed and modified to fit the general public. I believe people with diverse backgrounds are the best to assist in the changing health care.

    I chose TTUHSC SOM because of the ability to learn medicine in a place that values the art of patient care in its foundation as well as the ability to do anything I hope to do in medicine guided by the strength of its mission and the care that TTUHSC SOM provides for its students.

    An establishment of Affordable Care Act (ACA) is Community-Based Collaborative Care Network Program, which is important for nurses to offer opportunities for coordinating and integrating health services for low income and uninsured populations (Kaiser Family Foundation, 2013). As a prepared graduate nurse, one should practice their education and training for the community. For example, community service projects at health fairs, clinics, or hospitals are a few suggestions that a prepared graduate nurse can do within the community. One may also collaborate with other students from other health professions and extend their reach with nurses. For instance, assist nurses to reach out to care and help as many uninsured Americans sign up for health insurance with support and understanding to their health options by serving sources of important information on how to access the health insurance coverage that is offered by the ACA.
