When we applied to become students of FCU College of Nursing, one question asked of us was, "Why do you want to be a nurse?" Our answers were naive, ambitious, and even idealistic. Never did we imagine that during our nursing student years we will witness the greatest challenges and triumphs of the nursing profession. With COVID-pandemic ravaging the world, nurses were pushed to the frontline and became essential workers hailed as "heroes." And yet, we also witnessed thousands of nurses succumbing to the physical and mental burden of the pandemic leading us to question whether we were indeed in the right course.
As we neared the end of our education, we were blessed to be given a chance to experience clinical nursing through simulation and limited face to face classes and clinical duty. That glimpse of what our future will be empowered us to pursue our journey because we finally realized that we may not totally change the world, but we can "give light to the world by teaching and touching a few."
We are the VISIONARIES OF HEALTH. We may do small and simple things but through Christ's MIRACLES, our efforts will be magnified and great things shall be brought to pass.
