Greg M.
York, PA
RN, Trauma Center
It was an interesting course of events that led me to the
nursing profession. I was employed for about 20 years as a
paramedic, always delivering patients to the nurses in the
emergency department at the local hospital. I enjoyed watching them
work; they were knowledgeable, competent, and performed skills
beyond my scope of practice as a paramedic. I thought it was
valuable and important work, and I decided to go back to school for
my nursing degree. I haven’t looked back since. Over the years, I have worked in several areas, but have settled
into emergency medicine. My experience as a paramedic made working
in the Emergency Department a natural fit, and I have loved every
second of it. I enjoy the autonomy that I have, the excitement of a
busy shift, the variety of patients who come through the door, and
the opportunity to follow a career that makes a valuable
contribution to the community. However, the thing I enjoy most
about being a nurse is when I am at the bedside and asking the
patient, “What can I do to help you?” Another great thing about nursing is the ability to pursue other
interests. I love music and have played piano since I was 5. After
many years and much practice, I have grown to be proficient at it
and now compose and perform my own original compositions. I keep
the two careers running a parallel course by performing at nursing
functions such as seminars, conferences, and at weddings and other
events for the staff and their relatives.
It has been a wonderful journey and I have no regrets about
becoming a nurse.
