Step 2: Professional Development Goals
Use the space below to write a statement identifying your professional development
goals.
Having worked as a registered nurse for more than ten years, I have identified some
professional goals I would like to achieve in the long run. The professional development
goals will ensure I remain abreast for the new procedures and expectations in the nursing
field. Among my professional goals is;
Providing excellent care for my patients. This aims at satisfying the patients fully. The
excellent care ranges from administering the medications in the right quantity, quality
and time. Attending to the emotional and mental status of the patients especially those in
psychiatric wards and checking on vital signs for patients among others (Zepeda, 2013).
Another important professional goal is to enhance my technology skills. With better
understanding of the evolving technology, as a nurse, I will be able to provide better
health care to patients. I will also use technology to discern the anatomical and
psychological symptoms in patients from better care.
I also intend to learn something new every quarter. I want to develop means to advance
on the medical techniques, learn on the recommended delivery of patient care and
research on ways to engage more in technology skills.
My net goal is to become a mentor to other certified nursing assistants as well as medical
technicians. I would like to continue with my training and education to advance more in
the field. I always had a passion in nursing and therefore I would like to inspire someone.
