I am currently working on my education on earing my register nurse license. Moreover, it all started in a health class in middle school. I choose to volunteer in nursing home and that is where my heart fell in love with the elderly. They are very fragile, they need care, and I just feel this is a way to give back to them for all they did throughout their lifetime. I love to hear all of their stories, spend time with them. In some nursing homes, the nurses are always in a hurry to get their job done and they have no time to sit and listen. Some of the elderly appreciate a little bit of time to hear them out. I have encountered many elderly in nursing homes that do not have any family or have stopped coming for visits and they feel lonely, that brakes my heart. Some felt bad because they couldnt care for themselves. Therefore, it is important for someone to help the elderly while encouraging their independence yet helping them so they don't feel like a burden.
