Health and social care is something that I have always been passionate about. Because I have studied health and social care for the last four years I have regularly met a lot of the most vulnerable members of society through past work experiences. Through past placements I have worked with children who have special needs. This helped me develop ways of communicating with the children this could be through sign language. Because my Aunt is deaf I have taught myself basic sign language in order to communicate with her effectively. This helped me a lot while I was involved in working with the children in the special needs school. Working within this environment has helped me gain a lot of confidence in myself this is because, it has proved to me that I can …show more content…
While completing this award it helped me learn the importance of teamwork and what will happen if the team does not pull together. One team member lost motivation and therefore would not help with the map reading and we all got lost. Once the team motivated that individual everything started to run smoothly. When working in a health and social care environment I think it is extremely important to work together as a team. These experiences have helped me improve my communication skills and have showed me the importance of working within a team. I have become more aware of my values and beliefs while taking into consideration other individuals values, beliefs, goals and their needs.

However I tried not to let it control my relationship with the kids I interacted with because I do not feel that is fair to them or myself.

1.1 Explain the term ‘personalisation’ as it applies in social care Personalisation in social care means people have choice and control over the way their care is planned and delivered. It is based on ‘what matters’ to them and their individual wants, strengths and needs to ensure all preferences are included within a person’s care. I statement for the ‘’ the Department of Health’’ states that everyone who receives support, whether provided by statutory services or funded by themselves, will have choice and control over the shape of that support in all care settings they are in. 1.2 Explain how personalisation can benefit individual Personalisation is important for a everyone who receives care, and support as having a personalised service
Personal Statement for Nursing School “When a person decides to become a Nurse. They make the most important decision of their lives. They choose to dedicate themselves to the care of others” Growing up in Nigeria; I had my first introduction to the field of medicine at the age of 6. At the time, my grand father was a holistic doctor at my local community. Whenever my grandfather went to work, he would take me with him and I remembered being very fascinated by how people would come in to get treatments for different kinds of diseases.

Besides, there is no safer way to touch people’s lives than through public health.
I began volunteering at my town 's nursing home in high school. Initially, I volunteered as an arts and craft aide, coloring and drawing with the patients, but soon after my sister I transformed that time slot into a performance hour, doing our gymnastics, hip-hop, ppm, cheer, and kickline routines for the patients. It was very rewarding to see the patients smile in amazement and awe and also knowing that they looked forward to seeing me each weekend. At the same it was sad to see familiar faces disappear. After I acquired Home Health Aide certificate in the summer of 2013, I was able to help physically care for the patients.

Growing up in a foster home has opened my eyes and my heart to the wonderful world of social work. Ever since I was eight years old, my family has taken in several kids in need of a home and a family. Changing their lives was something I take pride in. There isn’t a better feeling in the world than being able to help someone out in need, protecting and comforting them.
Pediatric interventional cardiology is a passion and a dream which I hope one day to realize. During my first pediatric residency training, I realized the depth of my interest in cardiology. I found pleasure and interest in all the pediatric cardiology rotations; however, cardiac catheterization, despite the limited sophistication with which it was performed, captivated me. As there were no training opportunities available back home and few interventional procedures can be done due to lack of experience in congenital interventional cardiology. Therefore, I decided to pursue a second pediatric residency training in the USA to allow me the opportunity for further training in pediatric cardiology and eventually congenital cardiac intervention.
These are acquired skills I can now utilize them to become a successful Social Worker. I’m currently working for Butterfly Effects which serves children who have been diagnosed with Autism and other learning disabilities. Being able to interact with children has made me more aware that I want to work with children as a social worker. Children are in our community are growing, learning, and thriving every day. As a professional it is my personal responsibility to help cultivate the community in which they grow because they are our future.
I am applying for a place to study social work because I have always wanted to be able to make a difference to people's lives. With social work I believe I can do this in a caring and supportive way. Many of my life experiences have led me to who I am today. The first thing I remember that caught my attention was how my cousin would always stay with my family. He would be spent weeks with at my house without contract with his parents.

When I read the essay question, I immediately looked up synonyms for “educated.” There were many words that I expected to see such as “intelligent” and “accomplished,” but there were others that really resonated with me such as “enriched,” “trained,” “coached,” “corrected,” and “developed.” I embraced those words because they more closely describe me, and I would like to consider myself to be an educated person. I truly enjoy learning and appreciate the many opportunities I have had to be educated both in and outside of the classroom. From my perspective, an educated person encompasses much more than good grades and a high ACT score.
The summer before my senior year in high school was a turning point in my life because it was the first time I realized I wanted to live in Israel. My whole life my parent had raised me, and my five younger siblings to love and support Israel but I could never actually picture myself here. That summer I went to Israel on a Bnei Akiva summer program and for the first time I could actually picture myself in Israel. I spent the summer living on Kibbutz Migdal Oz, volunteering in the Jerusalem Forest, and taking unique trips to volunteer in different communities around Israel. Volunteering in Israel really made me feel connected to people in this country on a much deeper level.
