HOW TO GET THERE?

FOR PRIVATE VEHICLES: Take exit to Batangas/Lucena and course through approximately 3 hours of travel. the objective is to get to Tayabas, Quezon, follow the main road. there are big directional signs that are easy to follow. you will pass through several towns namely: (in order) Sta. Tomas, Alaminos, San Pablo, Tiaong, Candelaria, Sariaya, then finally Tayabas. (you can actually skip lucena city and avoid traffic.) Reaching Tayabas town proper, you will be in graceland in less than 30 minutes.

FOR THOSE TAKING PUB (MY NOTE: I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST AND HAPPINESS IN LIFE DAHIL GOODLUCK SA PAG DADALA NG BAHAY NYO): find a suitable bus liner in buendia pasay. you can choose from Jam (infront of EGI Tower), Lucena Lines (along side Jam), Jac Liner (infront of Pasay Adventist Church). there are also available bus lines in cubao, and dela rosa alabang. from batangas city you can ride Supreme Transit. All of these go to one point, LUCENA GRAND CENTRAL TERMINAL. From the terminal, jeepney rides are available headed towards Lucban. I think aimone people will assist in giving directions in the terminal. then, ask the driver to get you to Graceland.

NO PARKING FEES FOR VEHICLES THAT WILL BE USED TO TAKE YOU THERE. PARENTS CAN VISIT YOU, WE WILL DISCUSS THE DATES.

RULES AND REGULATION TO FOLLOW. BUT ON OUR ARRIVAL WE WILL MEET THE GRACELAND AUTHORITIES BEFORE WE ACTUALLY CHECK-IN. TO TIGHTEN UP SECURITY AND STRAIGHTEN OUR RESPONSIBILITIES TO THE PROPERTY. YOU WILL BE ALLOWED TO GET OUT OF GRACELAND ON LONG WEEKENDS ONLY. AND PARENTS SHOULD GIVE CONSENT TO YOUR GOING OUT OF GRACELAND FOR WHATEVER REASON. I AM POSITIVE THAT NO HARM WILL BEFALL ANY OF US, KAYA SUPER EMERGENCY NA KAPAG LUMABAS KAYO OUT OF SKED. VISITING PARENTS CAN STAY OVERNIGHT IN OTHER QUARTERS NOT OCCUPIED BY STUDENTS. I DON'T KNOW THE RATES.

ONE PILLOW PER STUDENT WILL BE PROVIDED WITH PILLOW CASES. LINENS WILL BE CHANGED EVERY MONDAYS, WEDNESDAYS, AND FRIDAYS. LAUNDRY DAYS WILL BE ALTERNATE WITH LINEN CHANGE. YOU CAN BRING YOUR FAVORITE PILLOWS AND YOUR BEDDINGS. BATH TOWELS WILL NOT BE PROVIDED, SO PLEASE PREPARE TO CARRY 2 PCS. FOOT RAGS ARE OPTIONAL, PLEASE PLAN WITH YOUR ROOMMATES, BUT THEY WILL SWEEP OFF THE DIRT EVERYDAY, SO MAKE SURE YOUR THINGS ARE ALWAYS TIDY WHEN YOU LEAVE YOUR ROOMS.

GRACELAND WILL PROVIDE WATER IN WATER DISPENSERS (WITH HOT AND COLD SWITCHES) BUT PLEASE DO NOT ABUSE IT. TAKE AS MUCH AS YOU CAN CONSUME AND REFILL IF NECESSARY. DISPENSERS WILL BE ALLOTED PER HALL SO NO NEED TO WORRY.

FOR OUR BATCH SINGERS/INSTRUMENTALISTS/MUSICIANS: please bring pieces of your songs, just in case you will be asked to sing during worship.

Watch out for announcements concerning room arrangements, bus payments, worship schedule later. Pakispread nalang to sa iba ha. Thanks! :D

1 Corinthians 10:31 "Whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God."

It's scary to think of, but the thing is, we may not all pass the board exam. We might not get 100%. But in the end, it's not going to be about whether we topped, or whether we passed, or whether we failed, it's about whether or not we did it for God's glory. So ICONS, let's all examine our hearts to check whether our motives are pure. But remember, just because you're doing something for God's glory and not your own doesn't mean you have to be less than perfect. In fact, when you're doing something for God, the more you'll strive for excellence, because HE deserves nothing less. Kaya aral aral na tayo, let's pray every night, let's pray every day, let's make HIM proud.

Last Duty Schedule as a Student Nurse

It is of mixed emotions that i post this last duty schedule. I can clearly recall the first time i posted updates regarding the clinical rotations schedules at our facebook page.. followed by some security issues, that's why i uploaded them here at this blogspot..

Very ironic that imma be posting the last schedule ever we'll have as a student nurse.. Gone are they days wherein we would crumble and fret our feet away when we learn our assigned areas..

This is it.. the final leg.. the last time for AM Students to wake up at 3-4AM in the morning; the last time PM students arrive past 1 AM; the last time each NOC student will see the sunrise at their clinical posts; and pretty much.. the last time will be on duty with our family here at CON..

Savor the last. Hold on the present and Move on into the future.

Godbless the Last Duty Week. Make it count -- Make it happen.

Adios Student Nurse Life!

PLEASE READ!!:
MARY MEDIATRIX SCRUBS (SPECIAL CASE)

On August 2010, the Level 3 Mary Mediatrix Clinical Instructors made a “data accumulation sytem” thru the VP Academics team. 3-weeks of grace period was given to those who would like to gather their missing data by downloading a certain form provided at www.icons2011.blogspot.com, filling it up with their needed data’s, and sending it over an email add provided.

Only 58 students submitted their requests. Sir Raul San Diego went to mary mediatrix just to find those data’s; he even had to sleep overnight the operating room. The data’s were given back 2 weeks after the submission, and was accordingly distributed by putting it up at the photocopy center.

Come second semester, there has been an INFLUX of data gathering request. We were expecting that since only 58 handed over their request, the REST WOULD HAVE COMPLETE DATA ALREADY; but then we were wrong. Counting on the scrubs that needed data, it would be around 100+. Now the Clinical Instructors opened the grace period and went to mary mediatrix for further data gathering alongside their clinical supervision with the Level 3 students.

Thing is, they found PROBLEMS in data gathering:

1. There are 2 logbooks they have to check on everytime: the GS (General Surgery) logbook, and the OB logbook.
2. Often times, the GS Logbook does not contain the whole information of the client (ex., no middle name)
3. The only LEGIT Data bank they could search on is the OR Computer, a device which contains ALL OPERATING ROOM DATA’S. Thing is, the OR SUPERVISOR does not allow clinical instructors to use the computer. Which explains the latest request still lacking of middle names et.al.

Sir Raul attested that, MMMCs protocol (as of last year) on gathering patient data has 2 steps:

1. Student Nurses should make a letter, addressed to the surgeon, in request to gather data.
2. If the Surgeon and Patient consents on it, then you will be brought to the medical records to pursue on data gathering.

Now Mary Mediatrix is ON HOLD since of these critical problems.
