The 12th of August, 2008 was the first day of duty in the
community. In fact, all I have expected from the CHN duty is the concept of
Maternal and Child Health Nursing in which we will be dealing about pregnant
women and care for growing children in the community. With the thought of
caring for a pregnant woman, relating this activity to this semester’s concept
makes me think whether it’ll be possible for me to push through and if it
would be a good experience to me. So, I pushed me ambivalence through and
grasped the handle of CHN bag insisting to myself that I can do it. Following
the first day of duty, we assisted on the EPI at Buhangin, Brgy. Baan. But that
wasn’t the highlight of the day. The procedure Leopold’s Maneuver, a very
exciting procedure to me because it was my first time, was the exhilarating
thing within the course of the day. Surely, I said to myself that I’m going to
enjoy it.

4:00 AM was the very first time of the day in which I woke up. I
know in myself that it’s unusual for me to wake up in such an early time. My
mom also woke up and asked me what the important event was about to
happen. By the way, I forgot to tell her that we’ll be going to FPPI in Agusan
del Sur. Going there was some sort of a field trip, but the main high light was
to interview a “company nurse”, and know the situation of workers inside a
company.
We left from the school at around 6:45AM, and drove our way
to the palm oil company. I heard that it will take three hours of travel to reach
there. But I didn’t mind since I was too excited to break free from the quo of
the school. I was wondering about the job and functions of a company nurse.
It was my first time to hear such occupation since all I have known was just
“an occupational nurse”, and not some sort of specificity of the occupation.
