Dear sir/madam
RE: APPLICATION FOR UNLV MASTER OF SCIENCE FAMILY NURSE PRACTIONER
Well, they say not all heroes wear caps, well in my field some wear stethoscope. The thought and the desire to advance my education and focus on aesthetic nursing triggered me to make this bold and brave decision. The decision and strong ambition to becoming a Family Nurse Practioner has led me to apply for the UNLV Master of Science Family Nurse Practioner. Growing up, I served my family members and my community through cosmetology. I knew without a doubt that I was called to bring a smile to the faces of so many individuals. As a child and adolescent, providing cosmetic services to anyone in need brought a lot of joy to my life. The satisfaction I got from the cosmetology services proved to me that I wanted to advance and become a person who deals with people and treats them physically, psychologically, emotionally and spiritually.
My mother worked as a Certified Nursing assistant and I could accompany her to the health facility on many occasions. My mother together with the nurses I interacted with made a deep impression on me. I admired how they cared for the patients and encouraged and understood the families of the patients. I loved how all of them were quick thinking and level headed because they worked in an environment that had no room for errors. What fascinated me the most was, how nurses were always the first to respond to an emergency and they cared for patients with utmost kindness and love. I really loved bringing a difference in the lives of individuals and I knew that nursing could be the best career for me. I admired how nurses could critically think as well as offer immeasurable knowledge to their patients in the simplest terms and control a confusing or devastating situation. My mother is my hero and she inspired me to pursue nursing.
I become a Registered Nurse and worked in acute care, specializing in Neuroscience and stroke. There I gained a plethora of knowledge and encountered patients with various backgrounds. During the three years working as a Registered nurse I got the chance to supervise multiple groups of nurses and the knowledge shared and the growth experienced was great. I led the junior nurses in understanding and mastering how to perfectly care for patients in an attempt to enhance patient satisfaction. I loved being a Registered Nurse but I needed something more that I could couple with the passion I had for cosmetology. Being a family Nurse Practioner I will get the chance to become a dermatologist and save many people the pain of being and feeling different because of a pigmentary disorder. Growing up I had a pigmentary disorder and I did not get the appropriate medical attention and for that reason I felt I wanted to be a dermatologist and be among the people conducting research that could cut the edge of dermatology and steer the specialty forward especially among the African America community.
I would like to join the UNLV Master of Science Family Nurse Practioner and specialize in aesthetics, because I believe every individual should get the chance to be happy and feel confident in their own skin. I strongly believe the knowledge from the course will help me promote health and serve the community better. I love a fast paced outpatient field that utilizes all the diagnosis procedures necessary to make the lives of people better. UNLV is the best place to be as it is one of its kind in Nevada, throughout my course work I will get the chance to become a Family Nurse Practioner and the best that there will be. Thank you for making the time to go through the letter .
Looking forward to hearing from you, and to joining the prestigious university and taking the course that I desire.
Yours Sincerely,
(Name).
