Summer Nurse Intern
May - July 2019 • Palm Bay, FL
What I liked
I have enjoyed company's team spirit, how well they were organized. I appreciated their attitudes, they were so happy to be there, to do their job. The CEO was very intelligent and gave an incredible inspirational speech on the first day. I liked the hospital that I was working in. My colleagues were very kind and were always willing to help me if I needed help. I have learned so much that I would not be able to learn at school or from the textbook. I have enjoyed the nature and atmosphere of medicine in Florida. I was so happy that I've chosen exactly this internship opportunity and plus I spent almost every day off on the beach. I made my childhood dream to come true, I've visited Universal studios Harry Potter World. I made so many connections though the internship. I've became a friend with so many people, and I've met a lot of amazing people. And most importantly I have grown so much compared to who I was before this experience.
What I wish was different
N/A
Advice
Don't be afraid to ask questions and don't be afraid to tell your ideas if you think they might help someone. Advocate for your patients and yourself/teammate. Go out and meet people, have fun and spend part of salary on your childhood dream that will make you happier :)
