Accomplishments

= For my job shadow I went to Allergy& Asthma Practice at Holy Redeemer Hospital. Its main purpose is to help people with their allergies and asthma problems. They diagnose the problems and then find ways to help them whether it is from allergy shots or giving the patient an inhaler. My mentor was Rosemary Smith she is the administrative nurse for the practice. She is in charge of managing the nurse’s schedules and all the finances of the business from buying medicine to maintenance needed on the building. I watched one of her nurses give allergy shots, do a skin test to test the person for allergies and even give a breathing test to see if the patient needs an inhaler. My job shadow was very insightful in reassuring me that I still want to become a nurse. While there I saw the care and patients each nurse had for each patient. Also interesting medicine can be if you find a field you paticularly like. = ==
