RN-BSN student Daysi Rodriguez earned the Montana Gray Memorial Scholarship. The purpose of the scholarship is to help a nontraditional student pursuing a Master of Nursing, Bachelor of Science in Nursing, or a Bachelor of Arts in Health Studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daysi gave us the opportunity to learn more about why she chose Nursing and what inspires her. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why did you choose UW Bothell?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve heard that UW is rated #2 for its undergraduate nursing program in the nation! I wanted to choose a University I knew I was going to get top notch education, holding up to its high educational standards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why did you choose Nursing? What\/who inspired you to choose Nursing? What\/who inspires you now?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the lowest point in my life, where I had no idea how to raise a child and was without any family support. I met an inspirational nurse that taught me how to prepare for motherhood. This education was so meaningful and impactful to my life that now I want to inspire others, through teachings and education so they too as well have an opportunity to live better lives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are your plans after graduation?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hunger for more knowledge, and after graduation I would like to continue furthering my education and complete my Master’s degree in Science of Nursing. I am a strong believer that with knowledge comes power, with power you can help more people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is supporting the health of diverse communities important?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are living in a time where health is deteriorating fast related to the pandemic, and all of its negative outcomes drag along with it. Communities need leaders with knowledge, and me being a Nurse in a professional practice can be of help to this community by being anything they need me to be to get them through difficult moments in life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you support the health of diverse communities?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I currently work as a District nurse and I am in constant communication with families about their student health needs, or even just a resource for any questions or concerns they may have. I am their voice for their children and the bridge for better communication between families and school staff personnel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of your accomplishments work-wise, which are you most proud of and why?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am most proud of being able to utilize my spanish speaking abilities and communicate with families, about any questions or concerns they may have. Communication in a school setting is the biggest barrier and being able to help throughout this process is very rewarding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you spend your time outside of school\/work?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am a mother of a 4th grader, and a 7month old puppy, most of my time is spent living with them and being part of their growth. I also tend to squeeze in time for myself and dedicate any free time to exercising and\/or catching up with old childhood friends. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What else would you like to share with our readers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To want a change, is to embrace a challenge, the challenge is where every day you work to do better than what you accomplished yesterday. Self growth is power. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
