CLMMRH-BATCH2016(MARCH)@FirstYear

    Nurses lead very demanding lives. Working with doctors, healing patients, and educating the folks are just a few of the responsibilities nurses perform daily. You could say that nurses are the backbone of our healthcare care system, providing us with the attention and medical care that we need to live healthy long-lasting lives. Sometimes being a nurse can be exhausting at times, but the knowledge and power to help heal others are what keep them going in challenging times.

    And while nurses are strong-spirited, positive, and focused even they need a little pick me up every once in a while. Just look at these very handsome and beautiful nurses, I think if you know them better u would rather confine @ Corazon Locsin Montelibano Memorial Regional Hospital under their nursing care.

Taogama Way of Service!
Hearts of Gold

Sherry York

There are times in our lives when we sit down and wonder where our lives will lead us.

Sometimes we get so caught up in our jobs that we forget what we truly represent.

We get frustrated, aggravated, pushed to the limits and so mentally tired that we feel what is the use in being a Nurse.

But then someone gives us a weak smile or holds our hand and may say "thank you, you are so special."

The we feel the warmth growing in our hearts.

All the bad feelings disappear and replaced by the core values that we present:

   human dignity, compassion, dedication, integrity, stewardship, leadership and excellence.

So when the bad feelins begin to show take the times to say this prayer:

    Lord, help me to bring comfort where there is pain.

    Courage where there is despair.

    Acceptance when the end is near.

A touch gentle with tenderness, patience, and love.

And, always remember, all Nurses are truly blessed.

For you see --- God gave of Hearts of Gold.

"We are the Care Specialists because our hands are the extension of God's hands when we serve because of love."

"One thing is sure. We have to do something. We have to do the best we know how at the moment . . . ; If it doesn't turn out right, we can modify it as we go along." 

YES i turned out RIGHT!

The Epic Way of CARE!

Another Goodbye
By Jennifer Huff,
I said goodbye to you today.
In my own quiet way.
A hidden tear was shed.
Tribute to the life you led.
Empty chair, an unspoken reminder of you.
Too soon to be filled by a patient so new.
Numb to the pain of so many goodbyes.
Sorrow hidden, secretly brushing tears from my eyes.
You joined the others who paved the way for you.
The leader, the song-man, the fiesty one, too.
The one who decided that he'd just had enough.
Saying farewell to you all has been so tough.
I like to imagine you are all gathered up there.
Playing poker, having feasts, so many stories to share.
No more restrictions on fluid and food.
No longer chained to disease, it is as it should.
Those of us left behind, keep your memory alive.
Working hard every day to help others survive.
Chair no longer empty, a new soul to tend.
Hidden tears suppressed.
A new beginning to the end.

          There are a few friendship stories that might not be suitable for our site, so that is why we ask you to query first. A couple of hints to make it easier to submit your story: no foul language is allowed at all and you have to be able to write well enough for a high school freshman to be able to understand what you’re talking about. Oh, and one other thing: Since the focus of this site is on helping friends make friends and keep friends, it's best to relate stories that follow along those lines. Make your story fun to read, ok?

So, having said all of that, how about a story to get you started?
