princple of maleficence in the clinical area!

we as student nurses are trying our best not to harm or do any mistakes when taking care for our patients, as supervised by our clinical instructor we comply to the rules and regulation and th patients bill of rights, observing the rights of every patient is very impiratant specially when giving of medications. i experienced a lot of situation where i always give a quality nursing care for my patient i always observe and see to it that any procedure that i will do is safe, but why there are still some who commits mistake? im not blaming them for we are not perfect person we are created by God capable of committing mistakes also, in the end it is still our loss of harming people again it is against the principle of maleficence, im hoping that in the future, there will be less mistake and harm to prevent any negative effect on our patient.

the library foundation seminar!

the seminar i attented last time was about the prevention of AIDS and other STI, at first i was reluctant to go in the meeting but as i think of it for several times i decided to immediately go to the place, eventhough im late still i manage to deal with the discussion since im ni the medical field it is not hard for me to understand the content of the seminar.I am very thankful for the people that make this foundation as a success.

Indian Invasion!

it is not unusual for me to see foreign students in our campus most of them are koreans, some are americans and some are japanese but what i am astound is that we have a lot of visitors from the indian peninsula and oh no! i hate their smell it disgust me a lot and i found out that the here say about them is very much true! there are almost 50 of them in our library using the internet section! i really dont know much what is the reason behind their stay but of course it isnt a bad sign, it is indeed a sign that our education system is really working not only for the locals but also for the foreign one's!BUT I REALLY DON'T LIKE THEIR SMELL IT IRRITATES MUCH OF MY OLFACTORY SENSE!

Hypochondriac Nurse!

Being a nurse entails a lot of duty from the start of enrollment in the nursing school until the actual learning of skills in the laboratory. This course offers a lot of benefits and advantages when it comes to salary and many more. But the more pressing question is that what are the disadvantages of this course, well I talk to my clinical instructor about it and I am absolutely correct. According to Encarta hypochondriac means in
psychology believing in nonexistent illness: excessively preoccupied with health and persistently believing in a nonexistent illness, or relating to the attitudes or state of mind of somebody with this condition or in short you are always thinking that you are sick! This very negative effect of the nursing education is very common to all nurses around the world. It is really hard to think that you are studying about the possibilities of acquiring diseases it is very unnatural.

Medical Ward@ UPHMC

we started or exposured in this area last year, at first i was afraid of staying there for a long time but as of now im slowly learning a lot from it, doing the morning care, vital signs, giving of medications and a whole lot more is a must in staying in this field. i agree to most of the students that it is boring toi stay long in this area, but a nursing students life will not be complete without this one! i would like to share my experienced a while ago in the hospital, the diagnosis of my patient ia acute gastrointestinal infection or in laymans term just like an increase in the gastric and bowel movement, thus the only difference is that it is caused by a bacteria or virus that stays in the gi tract of a person! while i was about to enter the room i was shocked and i hate to see those 2 child in the hospital bed, not knowing that they are brothers and sons of a RN! wooh i said to myself i must be attentive with the needs of these two young men! upon getting the temperature i already prepared my conventional thermometer to place it in the axilla of the older child i was shocked because the child get mad and was crying saying that i dont like that i dont like that! i think that was one of the most embarassing moment i ever experience i the ward! but as mi clinical instructor help me in dealing with the child i was amazed by how she uses therapeutic communication to tell the child that this will not hurt you!

Ineffective tissue perfusion: myocardial

being alone is very hard, i knew from the start that it will not last but at least i tried, but it isn't enough to show your compassion and your dedication to the one you admire and dearly love, loosing him is just like loosing a battle that in the end you will find your self nothing. engaging in a short term affair is really bad especially if you are starting to like him as your significant other,but it's alright if he do not like you anymore, there are lot of people waiting for you so why spend time with a person of no word, try to reflect on it it is very hard for you to move on in the midst of darkness!

Second semester isn't fun!

It's been a long time since i post a new story in my blog maybe because of the toxicity of my duty haha! anyway the second semester is again a new episode and a new battle for my pursuing career in nursing! facing NCM 102 is not that easy we are broken down into three clusters and i belong to the cluster 2 my first exposure should be in the operating room but unfortunately because of the students in the molino campus we transferred to a birthing home in paranaque, how sad we only got 2 cases in that area full of dread and fears due to the evil forces around, i hope not to go back in that place anymore! prelim exams was already finished and i hope that i will get a good grade out of it!
