FNP Statement of Purpose Breast Cancer Prevention

Healthcare professionals gather around a smiling patient, symbolizing hope, and support in the fight against breast cancer, reflecting the purpose and commitment to prevention and care.

I was born and raised in Bangkok, Thailand; I moved to the US in 1983 and attended High School here, and I have been a licensed RN since 1990. I speak excellent English, Thai, and some Spanish, which I am working to improve. I aim to enhance my critical skills and knowledge by joining a challenging and supportive online program, excelling, and becoming a highly effective and dedicated Family Nurse Practitioner.  

I wanted to be a nurse from my earliest childhood and have never regretted this decision, which I regard more as a vocation than a mere career choice. I have had a varied and enjoyable nursing career of more than 20 years, working in various settings, and undertaking extensive duties. I am competent in treating patients independently in most situations and currently advocate for patients to access appropriate care in the health care system. I have assisted in training staff.

Healthcare professionals gather around a patient, demonstrating compassionate care and support as part of a breast cancer prevention initiative.

I hope to make a positive difference in people’s lives by applying my significant nursing experience and to do so while having a satisfying and rewarding career that provides substantial variety and autonomy. I am convinced that the FNP role will meet my requirements. I seek to work directly with a wide variety of patients and conditions. I am particularly interested in preventative medicine and hope to assist in research on breast cancer prevention, early detection, and treatment, especially among poor and underserved populations.

I am also interested in the problems of providing appropriate and effective healthcare to a fast-aging population and this situation's new challenges. I am an excellent communicator; I have learned the importance of non-verbal signals in communicating with patients and responding appropriately over many years of nursing. I have always taken an integrated approach to patient care, considering family situations and dynamics. While I have not been academically engaged formally for some years, I look forward to the academic challenges the program will provide. I am confident that my current work schedule is sufficiently flexible to permit me to dedicate the necessary time to excel in my studies.

Healthcare professionals dedicated to breast cancer prevention are gathered, symbolizing hope and commitment in a supportive medical environment.

I know that cultural sensitivity is essential in the role I seek to fill. I have studied, worked, and socialized with people of many cultural and social backgrounds and have thoroughly enjoyed doing so. Once qualified, I positively seek to practice with the underserved community. I also hope to volunteer regularly in a developing country, treating patients and sharing my skills and knowledge with local healthcare providers.

I know that I am applying to a highly prestigious program for which there will be many well-qualified applicants. However, I genuinely regard myself as an excellent candidate.

I am sure that I possess the maturity, background, dedication, knowledge, skills, and personal traits that will enable me to excel within the program and become a highly effective Family Nurse Practitioner.
