In most instances, NLN Achievement Tests are not intended to determine pass/fail
status or final grades, but rather to help users to evaluate the effectiveness
with which they are meeting the objectives of similar educational programs as
defined by representatives of those programs throughout the country. The NLN
does not suggest “”acceptable” scores. It is recommended that each program study
the performance of its students in terms of the national norms and in terms of
its own educational objectives. On tests for which more than one set of
percentile norms is provided, it is expected that faculty members will find it
most useful to compare the performance of their students with that of students
in the same type of program

Interview on Career Choice 2 and Citation (Obsitu Kelifa)
Who inspired you to become a nurse and eventually a nurse practitioner?
My mother was a nurse. I have always been surrounded by the women in my family who were in the health care field. Becoming a nurse practitioner was a logical next step in my professional life.
What is a nurse practitioner?
A nurse practitioner (NP) is a registered nurse who has received an advanced education and clinical preparation to provide care in various settings. Most NPs hold a master’s degree in nursing and are board certified in their area of specialization. NPs are able to take health histories, diagnose and treat many acute and chronic health problems, order laboratory and radiology tests, interpret test results, prescribe medications, and manage therapies.
What do you enjoy most about being a nurse practitioner?
I like the independence it gives me. I also like the fact that I have time to teach people how to take care of themselves. I also get to see people when they are healthy, like during routine physical exams and school wellness exams. I really take time to teach my patients about self-care.
What is the hardest part about being a nurse practitioner?
Treating people with limited access to health care is the hardest part. I see people who have neglected their health for a long time — not because they didn’t care or didn’t know there was something wrong, but because they couldn’t afford the care they needed. I find that very sad. I try to be very cognizant of the costs of the prescriptions I write.
Tell us about your clinical background before becoming a nurse practitioner.
I worked as a medical surgical “floor” nurse for a year and then switched to emergency medicine in a busy emergency room where I worked for nine years.
What is working in an emergency room (ER) really like?
I think the reality of ER work is that you take care of a lot of people without primary care, who come to the ER in a state of crisis. You do a lot of teaching to try and help people understand what they can do to prevent further emergencies. I saw people at the lowest points in their life. I saw young people die. It is really sad sometimes because you see young people suffer from preventable deaths: deaths that happened because they didn’t use seat belts, were driving under the influence of alcohol or mind altering drugs, or engaged in other high risk behaviors. It can be very stressful.
What is primary care?
You can think of primary care as your medical home where all your health-related information and provider information resides. With the support of your primary care provider, you can maintain good health, manage chronic diseases, and have access to higher levels of care when necessary. The Healthy People 2010 goal is for all individuals to have a source of ongoing care regardless of race, social background, or economic stance.
Who is considered a primary care provider?
Primary care providers can be physicians, nurse practitioners or physician assistants.
How do you think the new Affordable Care Act will influence the role that NPs play in providing primary care?
The health care reform law provides additional funding for the education of nurse practitioners who specialize in primary care. There is already a shortage of primary care providers in the United States and as more people become insured, we expect that more people will want to have an established primary care provider. Nurse practitioners can help fill the need for additional primary care providers. (Learn more from HealthCare.gov 
.)
.)What should people do to stay healthy?
This is a very important question. First, people have to engage in activities that promote good health.
Healthy activities include eating well balanced meals, staying active, getting adequate sleep, not using illicit drugs or tobacco products, limiting alcohol intake, not engaging in unsafe sex, and using seatbelts at all times. You may be surprised that you have already been doing some of these activities, and that is excellent!
The next step in maintaining good health requires having a medical home with a primary care provider who can keep tabs on your overall health. It is important to have routine physical examinations with your primary care provider and keep up with regular screenings. During your visits, you have the opportunity to discuss any concerns you may have and receive information that will enable you to care for yourself. Your primary care provider can also help you stay current with your immunizations. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends several immunizations for adult women. The guidelines are updated periodically and your primary care provider is a good resource person to answer any questions you may have. (Learn more in the Screening tests and vaccines section of womenshealth.gov.)
Lastly, for those who have a chronic illness, it is crucial to have an active partnership with your primary care provider. If you have a chronic illness such as high blood pressure, diabetes or asthma, the goal is to maintain good health, prevent complications, and preserve quality of life. An example of this is an asthma action plan. This is a written individualized plan that is unique to you and your health care needs. It gives you step-by-step information on what to do when you do not feel well.

Tell us what you do to keep yourself healthy.
I eat a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables and I don’t eat a lot of red meat. I really try to stay away from sweets but I really struggle with that. I also drink lots of water.

Interview on Career Choice 1 and Citation (Dr.Roger Mahr)
Q. What inspired you to become a veterinarian?
A. I decided to become a veterinarian in the seventh grade. Although I have always been a small-animal practitioner, I grew up on a dairy farm where I helped care for our cows and calves. I helped with milking the cows morning and night. We also raised sheep, and always had dogs and cats on the farm. I participated in 4-H and FFA, and exhibited my cattle and sheep at the county and state fairs.
I was impressed with the skill of the veterinarians who came to our farm to treat our animals. Sometimes we would have a cow that was down and could not get up. The veterinarian would give a bottle of intravenous fluids and almost immediately the cow would rise to her feet. Another cow may be having difficulty giving birth to a calf. With a little help from the veterinarian the cow would soon deliver a newborn calf.
I remember the veterinarian coming when needed, no matter what time of day or night. I was also impressed with how much care and concern they had for the animals.
Q. Could you briefly describe a day in the life of a veterinarian?
A. The life of a veterinarian varies depending on the area of veterinary medicine in which he or she works. The work may be in an animal hospital where the owners bring their pets, such as dogs, cats, or birds, for examinations and treatment. If the veterinarian works with large animals, such as cattle or horses, the veterinarian may need to travel to the farm or stable.
For every veterinarian the day is never routine, and no two days are ever alike. It requires caring for both healthy and sick animals. This includes examinations and vaccinations, diagnosing diseases and injuries, and treating animals with medicine or surgery.
The workday will be quite different as well for veterinarians who work in meat- and milk-processing plants, making sure that our food is safe to eat. There are veterinarians who do research in laboratories, working to discover new treatments, procedures and medicines for both animals and people. Some veterinarians care for animals in zoos or circuses, while others teach students in colleges of veterinary medicine to become future veterinarians. So it's a profession that offers a lot of different work environments.
Q. What do you think is the most important quality a person must possess in order to become a veterinarian?
A. You first must be a good student and particularly enjoy the study of science. You must care about both animals and people, and enjoy working with both. It is important to be able to communicate well with people. Veterinarians must communicate well with the owners of their patients as well as the people with whom they work.
Q. What was the hardest thing for you to learn about veterinary medicine?
A. There is so much knowledge to learn in veterinary medicine. For me the most difficult part was learning the structure, or anatomy, and the function, or physiology, of the animal's body at the tissue cell level. In order to learn this, the veterinary student must learn well how to use the microscope and other laboratory equipment.
Q. How do you communicate with the animals? What are your techniques?
A. When an animal is presented for an examination, first, the veterinarian must talk with the owner. This is very similar to what a medical doctor pediatrician must do in examining a baby. Many questions are asked of the owner to determine what the owner has observed in the animal's actions or habits, and what care has been given to the animal, including food, water, and housing.
In approaching an animal for examination I will talk to the animal in a quiet and calming manner. With dogs, I will use the common words associated with obedience training such as "sit" or "stay." Depending on the nature of the dog, I will vary the tone of my voice in order to maintain control.
Because an animal cannot talk back to me, I must use all of my senses, including sight, touch, hearing and smell, to determine what is normal and abnormal. I must carefully observe an animal's behavior or response, and look for signs that indicate pain or discomfort.
Q. What has been your saddest case?
A. No matter the reason, the hardest thing for me is performing euthanasia of a pet to end its life. It is very sad even though euthanasia is done to end a pet's suffering. For pet owners this is always the most difficult decision that they may have to make concerning their pet.
Q. What has been your funniest case?
A. I have always been amused when some of my dog patients eagerly, and with a great deal of excitement, come into the examination room and promptly jump right up on the examination table.
Q. What is the greatest challenge of being a veterinarian?
A. Communicating effectively with the owner of an animal is the greatest challenge for a veterinarian. It is particularly difficult when the animal has a life-threatening disease or injury. It is important for the owner to understand what is going on with the condition and what the various options are for treatment. It becomes even more challenging when there is no effective treatment option available.
Q. What is the biggest reward of being a veterinarian?
A. The greatest reward for me as a veterinarian is being able to help both animals and people. It has been particularly meaningful when I have been able to save the life of a pet, not only for the sake of the animal, but also for the sake of the owner. My actions may save and extend the human-animal relationship, which means so much to both.
I vividly recall Sarge, a brown and black German shepherd, whose severely fractured leg I surgically repaired, or the turtle whose broken shell I wired back together. The owners of both of these animals were extremely happy that their pets were saved.
Q. If you could give one piece of advice to someone considering becoming a veterinarian, what would it be?
A. It is important to experience veterinary medicine firsthand by working and observing with veterinarians in a veterinary practice. This will provide a valuable opportunity to determine if becoming a veterinarian is what you really want to do.
Q. Is there anything else you'd like to share?
A. There are many rewarding career opportunities available in veterinary medicine. Veterinarians work to improve both animal and human health in many ways. When considering the possibility of becoming a veterinarian, I would encourage exploring those various opportunities. More veterinarians are needed in food supply veterinary medicine, public health, biomedical research, and teaching veterinary medicine.
Veterinarians are needed to help assure that safe, high-quality food is available for the world population; contagious diseases that are transmitted from animals to people, such as avian influenza, are controlled and prevented; and new treatments for diseases affecting both animals and people are developed through animal research.
No other profession does more for the health of both animals and people.

This photo relates to my career because this is a photo of a horse getting its teeth smoothed out. When a horses teeth grow or get sharp its hard for them to eat.When their teeth are sharp it hurts them when they eat because the point of their teeth poke or stab inside their mouth causing sores,and they need a Vet to trim and smooth the teeth so it is easy for them to eat and so the sores heal.
Quote,Paraphrase,Citation#1
The best doctor in
the world is a veterinarian. He can't ask his patients what is
the matter -- he's got to just know.
~ Will Rogers (November 04, 1879 - August
15, 1935)
I think what will Rogers is trying to say is that when your a doctor you can talk to your patients to see what is wrong but when you are a veterinarian you are working with animals and they cant tell you what is hurting and how bad it hurts. This is why you have to study the animal and figure out the problem, know the problem and solve the problem.

What i already know about my career
There is alot to learn about being a Vet and a Nurse.Some of the things i already know about being a Vet is it takes alot of hard work,and no matter what is wrong with the animal you are working with, you have to be gentle and careful.There are many presure points and nurves in an animals body so you have to be sure you know were the nurves,bones,ligaments and many others things are in the body.I learned this because when i was younger i use to take care of animals and i learned you have to be careful with them.I also know some things about being a nure.I know that when you are working with patient you have to make sure you are aware of how the body works and what is in the body.You also have to be patient with the people you are working with.I learned this form nurses i know and watching nurses work on their patients.

The story behind my career choice
When i was little I use to love to help animals if they were hurt or if they needed someone to take care of them.Thats why i wanted to be a Vet.I have always loved animal, and once i relized there was a career that puts u in a place were u take care of animals all the time i thought to myself," I would be grate for this career." I also love to work with people and help them. That why for my second career i chose to major in Nursing.I enjoy helping others when they need it.When i see them smile and they are happy it make me feel good that i helped those people.Thats why i decided i also might want to do Nursing.
