Nino of  Brgy. Dela Paz in Antipolo. In short, plan, plan, plan! Never have I been so productive in the last 2 days. Thank God as of now everything is going ( Read more... )

Community Week 1: School Health Nursing (February 12-16, 2007)

Tonight may be our last night of duty in the Neuroward - the place I call home. During the post-conference early this morning, quite a number  were envious and also wanted the Neuroward experience.

My previous post was me complaining and frustrated how predictable my everyday routine was. Well, I was assigned the very daunting task of being the first Charge Nurse for Functional Nursing in my group.  Functional Nursing consists of each member being assigned a specific task, like one member would be the medication nurse and administer all ( Read more... )

This week was all about routines. Waking up early before dawn, duty, post conference, going home late exhausted wanting to sleep; just having ample time to do the needed workplan for tomorrow; and doing the exact thing over again.

Its deja vu everyday.

While Sayno and I were doing our charting, we discussed how instant our lives became too ( Read more... )
