My name is Rachel. From my nursing experience is that I have worked in the Progressive Step-down Unit (PCU). I graduated in August 2019 with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. I was able to sit for my board exam in 2020, and I was able to pass well. Therefore, through learning and doing several exams, I have been able to have different nursing experiences and learn other ideas on nursing operations. My learning experiences have enabled me to contribute a lot t the nursing profession as I have the necessary skills alongside the profession’s personality. Moreover, I have created a positive work setting within the hospital, wherein the progressive step-down unit department. The positive work environments I have made have helped me increase positive patient outcomes and the excellence of care. I’m currently working in a Psych Hospital that I found out I really like this field , it wasn’t my original field of interest but I have developed a new found passion for Psych and I’m actually really good at it with the patients.
