Barriers Encountered
In my journey to become a professional nurse, I have encountered numerous challenges. One of the main challenges was the conflict between professions. When I graduated from high school, I wanted to join a law school. I wanted to become a lawyer, just like my parents. However, an incident occurred when my neighbor suffered heart-attack. Because of the limited medical knowledge of the people who were close to him at that time, he lost his life. For a moment, there was a conflict in my mind on whether to do a medical or a legal course. I finally chose to pursue a nursing career. Lack of confidence was the other challenge I had to deal with when I joined college, especially during the time I was in my attachment. Handling patients in extreme pain was a major problem that I had to overcome (Johns, 2013). The nature of this course also meant that it was not advisable to take online classes most of the time because of the practical nature of this profession.
Overcoming the Barriers
I have been able to overcome these major hurdles at different stages of my career. I was finally able to choose nursing over law because of the desire to help people in pain. Dealing with the issue of confidence, especially during practical lessons took some time. However, with the support from my colleagues, parents, and teachers, I was finally able to gain confidence through regular practice. I no longer fear handling patients in different conditions. I also came to appreciate the need to be physically present in classrooms most of the time because of the nature of the career.
