New CHEd chief dared: Get rid of low-grade nursing colleges 2007-08-15 07:36:00 The Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP) has urged the new chairman of the Commission on Higher Education (CHEd), former Socio-Economic Planning Secretary Romulo Neri, to immediately close down substandard nursing schools, "in order to protect the hopes and dreams of hundreds of thousands of aspiring nurse practitioners and their families.""We are definitely counting on Mr. Neri to take decisive and resolute action against deficient nursing colleges that have opportunistically proliferated on account of the growing number of high school graduates wanting to take up the nursing course," TUCP president Democrito Mendoza said."Nursing institutions that collect sky-high tuition, yet fail to provide adequate instruction to students, are rotten.

Add structure to your days 2007-08-14 22:07:00 Look on your quest to find a job as a job in itself. Add structure to your days. Although it is empting to exploit any free time you may have, don't spend all your free time shopping or sleeping late. Every weekday that you are off, spend time working towards finding your dream job.Be clear on what you want to achieve. Write down your plans: Where would you like to work? What time frame do you have to work to? Look at your plan regularly, daily preferably, and keep a record of actions that you have taken towards achieving your goal.In the words of Tony Robbins:“One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.� So get focused and get that job!Source: http://erddig.typepad.com/nurse_blog/ http://feeds.feedburner.com/blogspot/FESA http://feeds.feedburner.com/blogspot/nAuu ...

A Nurse’s Prayer 2007-08-12 10:30:00 O my God, teach me to receive the sick in Your Name.Give to my efforts success for the glory of Your holy Name. It is Your work: without You, I cannot succeed. Grant that the sick You have placed in my care may be abundantly blessed, and not one of them be lost because of any neglect on my part.Help me to overcome, every temporal weakness and strengthen me whatever may enable me to bring joy to the lives of those I serve. Give me grace, for the sake of Your sick ones and of those lives that will be influenced by them. Amen.http://feeds.feedburner.com/blogspot/FESA http://feeds.feedburner.com/blogspot/nAuu ...
