The Explorer - The Biggest Burger in Kalibo, Aklan

I have one hobby that I can't really be proud of and that's eating. It makes me fat and unhealthy but sometimes having it in moderation can be good for your mental health. So last Saturday, April 30, 2011, I went back home to Kalibo, Aklan with my soulmate to visit my father who just had a mild stroke.

Saint Gabriel Hospital

I just found out that the hospital where I'm working in has a new website/social network at ning. I haven't explored it yet but it looks promising. Hope you could visit it and give your insights about the hospital. It's at sgh-aklan.ning.com.

*Saint Gabriel Hospital is located in the heart of Kalibo, Aklan, Philippines.

I.V. Therapy

As a nurse in the Philippines, it is now a requirement by law to be a licensed I.V. therapist. To be one, you need to attend a 3-day I.V. therapy training course. Right now it would cost about P1,500 - P2,500 depending on the location of the seminar and institution behind it.

I've been in attendance in the said seminar here in Saint Gabriel Hospital in Kalibo, Aklan, Philippines. It cost us P2,500 for the seminar with 2 free snacks and lunch. It starts at 8:00 A.M. until 5:00-5:30P.M. depending on the lecturers. We just had our demonstrations by the preceptors just this afternoon and tomorrow we'll be doing the return demonstrations complete with all the enumerations step-by-step.

The institutions responsible for this training program are the Iloilo Misssion Hospital Nursing Service and the Saint Gabriel Hospital Nursing Service. Also there are sponsors for the said seminar including the Saint Gabriel Hospital, Inc., Saint Gabriel College, and GenCare Medical Distribution Inc.

For me, completing the requirements in this seminar is not enough to be able to fully call yourself a licensed I.V. Therapist, EXPERIENCE is still the best teacher. :-?
