It was 4 months ago since i started being a nurse trainee at LCDH. guess what, after finishing the first phase of the training, i renewed for another 3 months still as a volunteer :| no salary, no food allowance, even transpo allowance. :| none at all. twas pure thank you. no! even thank you i can rarely hear them utter that word. ugh.
but why am i still here?
all i know is that i'm having this feeling of fullfillment seeing patients get better with my nursing care.
seeing them leave the hospital with smiles that their patients are in good condition, that they'd go home with an additional member of the family successfully born and taken good care of :) it leaves me with a happy heart.
another thing is that with this experience i was able to establish good relationship with doctors esp. the chief of hospital dr. duque. others would notice how close we are that they would say i'm his apple of the eye :) it is a good thing that you work with doctors as if you are in the same level. that no one is superior or inferior to one another :)
also the good thing is they would be there whenever you need help. like one instance, i broke a bottle of ciplon which cost p450 . i was like in the berge of crying but with the help of dr. chavez, i was able to solve my problem. he handed me down the money which i shyfully accepted to buy that med to be given immediately to the patient. instances like that, i am thankful that doctors understand my situation as a volunteer i cannot always afford such expenses. and good thing they are there to help me out :)
also, i met a lot of friends here at lipa. also a lot of frenemies :p gosh those jelous bitches . ugh ( nevermind). those friends for keeps are what matters most. :)
and most importantly i was able to improve my nursing skills as well as my personality. how to handle patients and how to handle myself in those fragile moments.
tho sometimes i feel hopeless of my career status, im still holding a grip on the hope that someday i can be a great nurse and that i can give back my achievements and success to my parents whose always there for me. they supported me and gave encouragements. never failed to encourage me to pursue my dreams. their dreams for me :)
with GOD and the people who loves and supports me, i can do this.
they say patience is a virtue. alright then :) i'll stay patient for the next 3 months. haha
till next blog fellas :)
