A day in the lives of student nurses- on duty and during breaks. 

Taken at JRMMH. 

Episode 2: Includes Norgen... NORGEN! 

(If you've viewed this for more than 5 minutes, you must have seen NORGEN!) 

This is a collection of the vids me and my team made during our hospital duties. The original team, composed of me, JR Delmendo, Joan Casin, Bernard Bautista, Lance Cadelina, Elaesa Elimanco, and Jayson Abriol-Santos, started this gig on the first quarter of 2007. 

During the test vid, which was taken in Fabella, our purpose was just to get a video souvenir of what we did as students. As we posted our second episode at You Tube, our perspective on the video changed due to the positive comments from internet viewers. Upon learning that there are actually people wanting to see even just a glimpse of what student nurses do, we decided to give it to them. THE WARD has now become a video project to be produced in series whenever possible. 

I've been getting messages and subscribers from countries like the U.K., New Zealand, and the U.S.A. Some happen to be RN's who want to look into what it has been like back when they were student nurses. Some watched to get a little more inspiration before they get into the field of healthcare. Some simply wanted to compare the setup of their training, figuring out what's ideal and what procedures could be or could've been corrected. Either way, we have viewers watching. 

So far, as of April 12, 2007 we have produced 5 vids, with episode 5 and 6 coming out soon. However, The last week of March 2007 has been quite sad (if not difficult) for us since there has been a reshuffling of sections in our batch, disbanding the original group. Episode 5 will cover the last days of the original team on duty at Kamuning Lying-in, while Episode 6 will be reserved for a video tribute to the original members. Episode 7 then will feature the new team which will be composed of me, Gerby Galanto, Cheenee Enaje, Monet Espinosa, and Sheena Cerda.

Many thanks to the clinical instructors who have permitted us to cautiously shoot, carefully taking into account not to offend or disrupt patient privacy. No patient will be featured. No, you won't even see their faces. Except for newborns though. :-)

This is THE WARD series. A project which will now serve as a video journal for us student nurses; a reminder, and perhaps a glimpse into the lives of student nurses for those wanting to satisfy their curiosity about nursing. This is something we will look back to years from now- the things we did, the teammates we trained with, the instructors who taught and passed on their skills, the shallow humor, bloopers, mistakes, and horseplay done during breaks to vent out stuffs. This is the story of our journey. 

Thank you for continuously watching our vids. For those who subscribed and have been anxiously waiting for the next episode to come, thank you. I hope we gave you some inspiration the way your interest and viewing have inspired us likewise.
