It's Been A Year!





My endless thanks to God that I was able to practice my profession as a nurse. This facility guided me on how to be a good one. 





This year had been tremendously awesome. I had both experienced bliss and tragedy. I had seen life and death on a frequent basis. My knowledge grew but I felt it wasn't enough yet. I've been an instrument to heal the broken spirits, while at the same time I was fixing mine. I grew stronger than I could ever imagine, because God never left me alone.

And so I was grateful. A year ago I thought I was forbidden, but that thought never sank me deep enough to break me. I was embraced back by my family and was brought to a bigger family that enlightened me more to pursue the purpose of my being- this calling.



I am celebrating my year with you, Apalit Doctor's Hospital. Thanks be to God!

Sherry Jane Mercines, R.N.

9 Tips to Pass the Nursing Board Exam There are tons of nursing sites that give tips on how to pass the nursing board exam or even to ace it and they show almost the same things. Today, I will give another perspective that will guide on what to do study and thus, passing the board. I am just a recent board passer and it may give you a tinge of doubt on the post's credibility. But I already went on this journey and I just want to share how these strategies worked for me. So let's start! ^^ 1. Know Past Experience. Asking someone who had the experience will help you condition your mind on what to expect when taking the board exam. They would definitely share the hard work sand heart tugging moments when they took the board. It will create you a mental picture of the whole scenario which would prompt you to prepare and be serious on your review.   2. Check Your Motivation Gauge. Are you now on a serious mode? You should be. Your application for board exam is non-...

January 15 was truly a remarkable day for me. I came from a tough night shift and almost everyone was clueless that I was equipped to bid my sweet goodbyes. I was looking and thinking deep. This hospital gave me so much learnings, appreciation, and even depressions at times. But I knew I had a colorful memories and years with the structure more so with the people whom it houses. They treated me as a family. I wasn't ready honestly, I was expecting some bargains because it's the third stage of DABDA. However, it went so well. Then I leave. I am smiling while my heart is crying. I don't know, I feel like I will be missing home. I felt so much love from the people and even the patients. Atleast in my life I have heard phrases like "Salamat Nurse", "Ikaw ang favorite kong Nurse", "Nurse kain ka", "Galing galing naman ni Nurse". Those are priceless. I regret not being able to document as much memories as I could. But beyond the pho...

What To Do While Waiting For PNLE Result

  What To Do While Waiting For PNLE Result Calm down future nurses.  Life never stop after submitting your NPT5 booklet and scantron. I know, you were also forced to donate your pencils and erasers before you leave the room. It's not about that. Our thoughts shouldn't be wasted by  'what-if-I-fail' mentality. There's so much to be done and it's the perfect time to plot our future as RNs.   1. Rest for the first week. Every soon-to-be-RNs deserves a long and a good rest. After struggling 4 years in Nursing School and a month of mental torture at the review center, it pays to have a good one. Students have several ways to give themselves a break like playing sports and traveling around Philippines, reading books or simply wallowing like a pig in their beds. It's just okay. Just don't abuse drugs and/or join daily drinking sprees to pay your hardships. 2. Build a resume. A week or two is probably enough to de-stress and move on t...
