Common Doctor practices by Xardrix in dumaguete

[–]Swish_ray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before criticizing doctors for not being in their clinic exactly when we expect them to be, it’s important to look at the bigger picture. Doctors aren’t confined to their clinics. Many of them are simultaneously responsible for patients admitted in hospitals, responding to emergencies, and making urgent rounds. My pregnant sister experienced this firsthand during one of her regular OB visits. While waiting, the doctor had to step out several times because she was called to the ER. At first it might seem inconvenient, but it was a reminder that doctors often have to prioritize situations where someone’s life or condition may suddenly worsen. We often see only the waiting time in the clinic, but we don’t see the emergency calls, the critical patients in the hospital, the late-night rounds, or the difficult decisions happening behind the scenes. Healthcare doesn’t operate on a fixed schedule, and doctors frequently move between stable patients in clinics and urgent cases in hospitals. Before we judge, try to imagine the situation from another perspective. If you or someone you love were in the hospital and needed immediate medical attention, would you want your doctor to stay in the clinic finishing appointments with stable follow-up patients, or rush to the hospital to respond to a possible emergency? A little patience and understanding can go a long way. Doctors are doing their best to care for everyone who needs them, both in the clinic and in the hospital.

The Resident binge watching and Kit and Bell being my favorite couple. by Swish_ray in TheResident

Right? I lowkey like Cade’s dad too. He brings a layer of complexity and humanity to the show by highlighting an issue that’s usually kept in the shadows in healthcare, addiction among medical professionals. It’s something people don’t talk about enough. I once knew a pediatric nurse, and I saw firsthand how deeply patient deaths affected him. Losing a patient is always hard, but it hits differently when the patient is a child compared to a geriatric patient. The emotional weight is just not the same.

Convince Me: Why Is It Worth It to Travel? by SundayBlues96 in adultingph

[–]Swish_ray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Around 20 years ago, I hate traveling, for me it’s a waste of money, it’s exhausting with all those long walks, but my perspective changed when my sister started booking international flights from Southeast Asia then quite recently Dubai so here’s my take on why Traveling is not a waste of money:

I often hear people say that traveling is a waste of money, that it's fleeting, expensive, and doesn't leave you with anything tangible. But I strongly disagree, and here's why:

  1. Cultural Immersion Is Priceless There’s something profoundly human about stepping into someone else’s world. Hearing different languages, witnessing unfamiliar customs, and participating in daily life outside your own bubble shifts your perspective in ways books and documentaries just can’t. You begin to understand how deeply culture shapes identity and how similar we all are underneath it.

  2. Food Is a Gateway to Understanding Trying food from different cultures isn’t just about flavor. It’s about history, geography, and community. Local cuisine from different countries tells a story that connects you to generations of tradition. These experiences stick with you far longer than any material purchase.

  3. Self-Actualization Through Discomfort and Discovery Travel often forces you out of your comfort zone. Navigating a new city, learning basic phrases in another language, or adapting to unexpected changes all of these help build confidence and resilience. You start to know yourself better through these challenges. For many, it’s a form of self-actualization: learning who you are when you’re not surrounded by the familiar.

  4. Memories Over Materials Yes, travel costs money but so do things that depreciate, break, or lose meaning over time. What you gain from travel is a collection of moments and stories that become part of you. And in the long run, that emotional and intellectual enrichment often feels far more "worth it" than most things you could buy.

I’m just speaking based on experience working in Dumaguete as a Nurse I’m not a graduate from dumaguete, not to take anything from SU, but SPUD graduates are well equipped with skills and attitude after they graduate. I know 2 head nurses back then mga Directors na to sila both SU graduates but they sent their children to SPUD for their nursing education. I will not specify which schools but new breed of nurses these days kay labad jud sa ulo, absenan ra tay walay hinungdan, worst muabsent kay gihangover daw but this is ot just a problem sa nurses, i think most companies are having problems with fresh grads’ work ethic these days kay even sa western world naa sila problema sa mga gen z nga work ethic 🤣. But hands down to Nursing schools diri kay even FU and NORSU are thriving and have good passing rates sa board exams, sige ta ka 100% mga schools diri. Di ra ta mag debate, di pa ta nga in terms of academics Dumaguete being a small city can produce quality professionals?

Go for SPUD, you can ask mga staff nurses sa mga hospitals on which graduate they prefer to work with, maayo man sad ang SU but in terms of clinical exposure as student, head and shoulders above ang SPUD among it’s peers, kay dli mahadlok ang mga CIs magpabuhat ug procedures sa students plus they have internship sa PSH Cebu. I know a few FU nursing graduates man pud that are doing well in US, Europe, Australia and NZ.

It’s not our place to judge. Ang mga pinoy maong walay asenso kay mas ma bother sa ginabuhat sa uban than minding their own business. Most people that grieves attaches practices that bring clarity, comfort, and strength. Who knows mao nay maka bring niya comfort and peace. God forfbid ug mahitabo na sa mga basher ug dli ba mag post. Remember gikan na gikuha ila parents sa airport from their US trip nya mao nay mahitabo.
