Partner in my Education

The goal that I have met so far is seeing my dream career in action. I never thought that reading about a career is very different than seeing it in action. The thing that I have gained from my mentorship is getting the details of the workplace. There are so many things that are not written about a career. The only way to find out is by actually shadowing the career. Another goal is actually getting to interact with patients. I really like the feeling of helping someone with their health as a career. I haven’t changed any of my goals until now. I am hoping that the more time that I spend at my mentorship there will more goals to accomplish.
The career that I want to pursue mostly depends on the patients. There are some times that the clinic is very busy, and there are others that is slow paced. The regular routine is to call patients to take their vital signs. Then ask them various helpful questions about their health. After that the doctor gets to take a look at them, and decide what is wrong. The nurse/assistant then puts all of the information into a database. The patient has to wait if they have a prescription to be sent to the pharmacy. The final step is to discharge the patient. The only part of the job that is sometimes boring is when there are not many patients. There are times in a while that you need a break though and the boring time is the resting time.
