Abstract, Summary, or Creative Statement
With my Service Learning Project, I volunteered for 25 hours over the course of the Fall semester at the Pediatric Emergency Department at Memorial Hospital Miramar in South Florida. I helped the nurses and technicians obtain vital signs, apply splints, and perform EKGs. I also helped the patients and their families by delivering drinks, blankets, tissues, etc., by changing their sheets, and by sanitizing the exam rooms in between patients. Throughout my time volunteering in the Pediatric ED, my desire to work in the medical field was solidified. Helping others receive the best care possible and making a change in the world is what I really want to do in life.
