"I chose to pursue a career in nursing because my mom and aunt are both nurses. I love caring for others and helping make them comfortable when going through a difficult time in their lives. I grew up hearing the stories of the people my family members had helped and even those they could not. Still, I could tell that they truly enjoyed their jobs, and I think it's in my blood. I cannot imagine choosing another career path."
