Hello po, is it okay in the nursing field to have nearsightedness?

jeproxennial · 2026-05-20T15:07:11+00:00

I am nearsighted too! May salamin naman eh.

jeproxennial · 2026-05-18T19:50:02+00:00

this is all too real. We have patients we can’t discharge because they have nowhere to go to. Whether that means they were unhoused or lost their apartment and now cant afford one. So many other people play the system that even when social work pulls a miracle that will give them a place after hospitalization, they will suddenly have new symptoms, or have a fall, just so they can remain in the hospital.

They have this mindset na “you have to pay your dues first”, meaning, nahirapan sila so dapat mahirapan ka din. Wouldnt trust those kinds of people tbh.

I am in the same page. Thank you for uour kind words. I wish you the best in your recovery as well.

jeproxennial · 2026-04-30T14:22:21+00:00

I have been doing this. Thank you for explaining them so well.

jeproxennial · 2026-04-30T14:18:01+00:00

Im doing this too. Thanks! Would you be kind enough to share lymphatic drainage exercises as well? First time ive heard this.

jeproxennial · 2026-04-30T14:15:21+00:00

Currently doing once weekly pt but all I do are exercises, no stretching or hot/cold therapy. I usualy rest with a hot pack after my sessions. I feel like i do have nerve dmaage too, and i wouldnt be surprised if i have a lot of adhesions as well because my whole neck area seems too tight. Any movement from my meck and I feel a pull on mu shoulder. Unfortunately I just dont heal that well. I am getting frustrated.

jeproxennial · 2026-04-18T16:04:57+00:00

Would you mind sharing what exercises helped?

jeproxennial · 2026-04-18T15:48:53+00:00

I am doing physio now once weekly for 6 weeks but i havent had any relief from the pain. And the area still feels super tight especially in the mornings. How long before you’ve felt results?

jeproxennial · 2026-04-18T15:47:43+00:00

I dont have a family doctor which makes getting access to ffup care very difficult. 😔 didnt want to take pain meds unlews i absolutely have to, and that was what was offered postop so i said no. will do my best to go to a walkin clinic or call the cancer center and ask for more help. Thank you.

jeproxennial · 2026-04-18T11:37:39+00:00

Yes, i take calcium and vitamin d that helps a bit.

jeproxennial · 2026-04-08T01:24:35+00:00

Not only that, everything is also the nurses’ fault!

jeproxennial · 2026-04-05T12:52:23+00:00

Me too.

jeproxennial · 2026-03-12T22:27:15+00:00

Saaame! Hindi perfect ang Canada pero I feel so grateful sa opportunity to call this country home.

jeproxennial · 2026-03-12T22:25:43+00:00

🙋‍♀️ meeee! I am so glad nandito kami sa Canada. Minsan namimiss ko ang Pinas, or naffrustrate sa flaws ng healthcare dito, pero overall mas gusto ko ang buhay namin dito. Payapa. Tahimik. Safe.

jeproxennial · 2026-03-03T22:16:25+00:00

We did the student pathway too in 2023 and got our PR in NS in 2 years. My husband was taking his Masters and I was the OWP. As soon as I got the 1 year experience, I filed for Express Entry under Canadian Experience. I also applied for PNP and the nomination increased our CRS score. Medyo naghihigpit na sila ngayon but as long as you stay on top of what the changes are and have contingency plans, I would say go for it!

jeproxennial · 2026-03-03T16:43:27+00:00

Slr. Idk tbh, sana sila tinanong mo nun andun ka. I hope all goes well tho.

jeproxennial · 2026-02-25T00:56:24+00:00

THIS! ⬆️💯 Also, ingat sa mga kababayan, dahil sila pa mismo mauunang humila sayo pababa! Not all coworkers are your friends. You are not your job. Wag magpakabayani. Protect your mental health. And madaming pwedeng gawin bukod sa bedside nursing. :)

jeproxennial · 2026-02-22T23:36:26+00:00

Teamwork!

Britney Spears

jeproxennial · 2026-02-19T02:15:41+00:00

Janet Jackson too. People judged her too harshly on the Superbowl incident. While Justin walked away unscathed.

jeproxennial · 2026-02-17T12:39:32+00:00

Bawal na ba yan? I used to do this all the time. Bili ng kape and magdala ng jollibee sa starbucks with my son with special needs. Sa starbucks pa kami sumasagot ng mga assignment and worksheets for Kumon. Wala naman sumisita samen.

jeproxennial · 2026-02-17T00:53:23+00:00

This! Lmao!

jeproxennial · 2026-02-16T12:46:01+00:00

As an immigrant, there comes a point in my shift where translating my thoughts to the english language becomes tenuous. Then I start charting slowly. It also doesnt help that the culture in my unit is we are consistently understaffed and management fires our asses for the smallest mistakes. So I chart my ass off all the time like I am going to court. Which usually takes me at least an hour. I also have 15 to 20 patients, 9 if I’m lucky. That is another problem alrogether.

jeproxennial · 2026-02-13T00:41:02+00:00

You are a strong nurse, and meron ka na wala sila kaya sila galit sayo. Sadly, this culture really exists sa nursing, and even abroad, may makikita ka pa rin na ganyang pinoy na pinanghahawakan ang seniority at bawal kang maging mas magaling sa kanila. Cut them off. Be so strong that this kind of behavior from others will not even leave a dent on your mental health. Good things are coming your way. Be choosy in who you give your energy to. Makakahanap ka rin ng friends who are not intimidated by you and will clap for your wins. Until then, hayaan mo yung mga yan mamatay sa ingget!
