Sigma Theta Tau - Omicron Beta Chapter
I have been a nurse for almost 3 years. I have worked at Upstate Golisano Childrens hospital and now I am a travel nurse. I am also in my second year of school to obtain my Family Nurse Practitioner Degree. I love my job! There is nothing more rewarding to me than being a nurse. I am proud to be a nurse and proud to say that I earned my degree at Brockport. I believe that Brockport provided me with the best education in nursing and gave me a strong foundation to build upon once I was out in the field on my own. I have, and always will, recommend Brockport to all future nurses. Thank you to all the staff who helped me and gave me the tools I needed to succeed.
Since graduation, I have specialized in pediatrics and have grown in my career working at Strong Memorial Hospital on unit 4-3600. I have remained a member in both Alpha Chi and Sigma Theta Tau. On 4-3600, I have participated in our sunshine committee to boost unit morale, created and initiated the "pat on the back" program to also boost morale and most recently published an in service for my coworkers for contact hours in the area of respiratory illnesses. I have also become certified to administer chemotherapy through ONS. Since graduating from Brockport, my choice to be a nurse has been reinforced on a continual basis! Nursing Rocks :)
I am currently a registered nurse working on a medical/surgical floor at Unity Hospital. Work is exciting and challenging at times. Even though I have finished school, I continue to learn something new each and everyday. I feel the College at Brockport couldn't have prepared me any better for both the NCLEX and the working world.
I have been privileged to work as a nurse at Unity Hospital with the Joint Replacement Center for the past 17 years. Earning and maintaining my certification in orthopaedics for the last eight years has helped me grow as an orthopaedic nurse. When the Joint Replacement Center opened, I was honored to be offered the exciting and rewarding role of Clinician. As a Clinician I am responsible for the continuing education of our staff nurses as well as speaking at orthopaedic seminars within the community. Returning to school and earning my BSN in nursing has opened numerous doors for me. The joy of being a registered nurse never grows old. The opportunities and rewards are endless. The most exciting aspect about nursing is not knowing where my career will take me next.
My name is Jessica Jackson and I graduated from the SUNY Brockport Nursing Program in May 2010. Brockport's nursing program truly helped prepare me for the NCLEX-RN exam. I took the test in June and passed on my first try and am now officially a Registered Nurse! While attending Brockport, I was a member of Sigma Theta Tau International and Alpha Chi honor societies. The nursing faculty and clinical experiences gave me above and beyond what I need to succeed in this profession. I was able to participate in research opportunities and was exposed to opportunities that I didn't even realize existed. Through a Research Assistant position and independent research study conducted under Dr. Elizabeth Heavey I discovered an additional passion next to nursing, which is epidemiological research.
I am currently working on my Master of Public Health (MPH) degree with a concentration in Epidemiology at the SUNY Albany School of Public Health. I am a full-time student and Graduate Assistant in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics. I am also this academic year's recipient of the Carson Carr Diversity Award. My goals as of right now are to either use my RN license in conjunction with my MPH degree to work in a Health Department or go on to do research.
