SECTION B - APPLICATION FORM 1. Why have you requested placement in a health care facility? I have requested placement in a health care facility because I want to focus on the well- being of others, positively contribute to society, and fulfill my childhood ambition of becoming a doctor. 2. How will this placement help you with your career choice? My ultimate career choice is to become a pediatrician. Working and gaining prior experience to achieve my goal will help me achieve job stability, the prospect to grow, and develop a stronger sense of leadership. Hospital volunteering will also encourage me to interact with those I am assisting, allowing myself to observe the difference I can create in the lives of others. I can take advantage of this opportunity to properly grasp if this is the appropriate career path for me and something I will thoroughly enjoy participating in. 3. What can you contribute as a Co-op Student in this placement? One of my roles as a supervisor is to help and advise many co-workers on how to properly handle various tasks around the store, I also provide feedback to ensure my team members of their performances, and diligently manage through re-stocking. In addition, I handle multiple customer complaints with cooperation and patience. I strongly consider these experiences an asset to this placement as I already maintain the necessary responsibility and patience needed to work in the healthcare field. 4. What research have you done to explore this career pathway? To deepen my understanding of the healthcare field, I took an elective specifically pertaining to this field. The elective taught me various human body systems and I also productively educated myself in numerous medical terminology. I focused on learning the definition behind the prefixes and suffixes. Furthermore, I researched my desired specialty which is a pediatrician and learned that CPR is an essential skill that medical staff should be proficient in. That is why I enrolled in a First Aid and CPR course, completed it successfully and received a certificate. 5. Are there any physical or medical conditions that would restrict your activities at the placement? Fortunately, I do not have any critical or very severe conditions that could obstruct my activities at the placement. However, I do have epilepsy but I am on medication and being closely monitored.
