Advancing Your Nursing Career: Tips and Advice from the Experts

In this episode of "So You Want to Work in Healthcare," I'm joined by two esteemed guests, Kaitlyn Patrick and Gina St. Jean, who bring a wealth of experience in the nursing field. Katy, with 16 years of service, is currently at Bay State Medical Center in Springfield, Massachusetts, while Gina boasts 20 years of experience including as a nurse educator and director of professional nursing practice.

Our conversation explores their individual journeys into the healthcare industry, revealing unique paths that led them to nursing. Katy shares how her decision was somewhat serendipitous, having applied to both the College of Nursing and the Business College at UMass Amherst without a clear direction or family influence in healthcare. On the other hand, Gina's journey was influenced by her childhood best friend who chose nursing after high school, which eventually prompted Gina to consider the profession for herself, despite their shared feeling of not being the stereotypical 'compassionate' individuals drawn to nursing.

This episode is a candid look at the diverse motivations and unexpected routes that can lead to a rewarding career in nursing, offering insights and inspiration for anyone considering a path in healthcare.
