在她的临床轮转在大学健康，护理学生Tatyana查尔斯(B.H.S. 21岁的她可以实践她当初决定从事护理职业时所打算做的事情。
“I feel grateful that I'm able to take care of my patients in their most vulnerable state to make them smile and take care of their immediate needs,” Charles said.
作为堪萨斯城人，查尔斯一直知道她想帮助家乡的邻居。 当她第一次来到威尼斯人娱乐城时，情况看起来有点不同。 Charles pursued a bachelor’s degree in 健康科学 with plans to pursue a career in health administration. 后来她才知道，她的激情在别处。
“I soon realized that I loved patient interaction and patient engagement, so I then chose to pursue nursing,” Charles said.
She chose to remain at 威尼斯人娱乐城 for her second degree because of the 护理程序 graduates’ high passage rate on the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCLEX-RN) exam. 2022年，超过98%的威尼斯人娱乐城护理学生通过了董事会考试。 查尔斯也相信她会得到支持，因为她在健康科学项目上有过积极的经历。
Now Charles is working on post-surgical care rotation at 大学健康, an academic medical center dedicated to providing health care to the Kansas City community, both for those with insurance and without.
她计划毕业后从事急诊室护士的工作，并对自己的技能很有信心。
“I feel well prepared,” she said. “Our faculty teaches us what to expect and what abnormally can happen and what to do next.”
在像大学健康这样的使命驱动型医院工作对查尔斯来说是完美的选择，他不仅想照顾病人，还想成为他们的倡导者，帮助他们找到持续的资源来帮助他们。
“I tell people all the time that I have a passion to serve the underserved,” Charles said. “I want to be able to give knowledge to the local resources here in Kansas City to help the lower economic population.”
