HSS 261 Unit 1 Discussion Board

Unit 1 Discussion

My name is Declan Chukwudi Onyekwere. My friends and acquaintances call me Chucks. I am a registered nurse (RN) and possess over three years’ experience in clinical settings in the United States. I am excited to be part of this class and my proudest moment remains my efforts that have made it possible to enroll in this program to improve my nursing skills and competencies. The attainment of a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) will be my greatest moment as this will open a new page in my life by providing more opportunities to be an accomplished healthcare provider. I am in this school not just to attain the BSN but form and nurture long-term relationships and interactions that will allow me to specialize in particular nursing specialty, especially as a family nurse practitioner or psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) so that I can offer better services to patients with different mental health issues (Jolley, 2020).

I believe that all of us are here to excel and attain more qualifications after the BSN degree. My advice is that we remain focused on the goal and help each other where possible to attain this degree. What is unique or fun about me is that I like diversity and divergent views and having little tickle moments where we share jokes but in a pragmatic manner to attain our goals. I believe that each has an opportunity to explore and discover who they are and nurture critical values like honesty, integrity and building of trusting relationships with others. It is my hope that we shall all attain better grades in the class (Groot et al., 2022). The course outline has many areas but an area that I look forward to learning more about is inter-professional collaboration and its impact on quality care delivery where all providers work together for the common good of patients.
