The most positive thing I have done was to save someones life when I was a Police Explorer with L.A.P.D., I noticed the symptoms of heat stroke and this woman was in her final phases and I was able to stabilize her until the paramedics came.

POne of the most positive things that I have done with my life is become an emergency room nurse. It is a very challenging job and sometimes the outcome is downright sad, but there are also those times when I just know we have saved a life or eased someone's pain. Even when we lose a patient, I think that I make a difference by being someone that can sit with someone greiving and help them through those first moments. It is not for everyone, but it is something I can do for the world.

Yes, may think that your job is day in day out but I know it can be very different daily and challenging. You are not as forgotten as school teachers, but I think many don't realize the services you provide.
