As a young ICU nurse, I dreamt about pursuing higher studies and I lived this dream by studying at RAK College of Nursing — RAKMHSU. With varied speciality options, it paved the way for an enriched experience of gaining knowledge and skill. As Nelson Mendala said: ''Everyone can rise above their circumstances and achieve success if they are dedicated to and are passionate about what they do." It reaffirms and encourages nurses not to miss the moment to study and work, and be expert nurses.
