(Group I)

In order to create and mold future nurses to be at their best shape


and selves, they must be able t enhance skills that will be used to not
only better their practice but become good stewards for care and
change. Because of the current situation we are all facing, student
nurses like myself had to experience a great shift, a shift that has
changed and compromised not only the way we learn, but also how
we enhance our skills-- online rotation. Nurse educators work day and
night in order to make sure that despite the current situation, students
nurses will not only ride with the times, but thrive despite adversities.
For this rotation my group-mates and I encountered various
activities that would help us mold into the best versions of ourselves and
our profession. Our clinical instructor allowed us to engage in
evidence-based readings, drug study, nursing care plans, reporting,
and allowed us to interview a mother whom experienced post-partum
care thrice. All of the activities except the interview happened in the
NEO LMS, while the interview took place in a zoom meeting. All of my
group-mates, instructor and the client F was present during the said
interview, while the activities held in the NEO LMS was done by all, but
individually. During the interview, every single student nurse present was
given the opportunity to ask Client F a question. It was indeed an
activity that allowed us to see post-partum from the experience and
perspective of a mother. Growing up in a small family, having kids
around was foreign to me for my twin sister and I do not have any other
siblings and our cousins are just about the same age as my twin and I.
During every activity, I would gather this great sense of realization---
labor and being a mother is not easy. You are burdened with not only
changes but great deal of responsibilities. Before, I already knew that
being a mother and going into labor is immensely difficult. However, I
thought that after labor, everything would be fine for both the mother
and infant--- I was stand corrected. I am still left at awe knowing how
much a mother has sacrificed her whole entire self for her child. I could
not help but wonder how teenage mothers who are shunned by their
families, community and even partners survive? Especially with the fact
that a mother under the post-partum period is utterly emotional and
vulnerable to depression. I could not help but salute all mothers--- they
are indeed under-appreciated heroes of all generations.
Now, given the activities especially the interviews; fortunately I had
no bad experience. All the assessments are given at a good timeline
and the interview went smoothly like butter. The activity was a great
experience for us all. We had a conversation with an actual human
being who has undergone post-partum. Listening to her melts my heart,
and a realization came to me all of a sudden--- my mother too has
experienced these challenges and looking at her now, I could not help
but be proud of her.
Moreover, due to the current situation, my group-mates and I have
not have the opportunity to really help and assist mothers under the
post-partum period. We are given theories and reading materials in
order to give us the basic concepts and ideology of how post-partum
care works and what are the possible risks. From the activities and
interview, the only thing I could say that is a negative feedback is that
not everyone has sufficient internet that would sustain them. Client F
herself experienced a few internet glitches. But other than that, the
activity was nothing but insightful. As for our activities, the reading
materials and videos presented really has illustrated to us how
important post-partum care really is. In addition, in order to suffice my
own curiosity, I would also research and watch documentaries on
post-partum depression for the topic really interests me. I believe that
mental health of a mother is equally as important as her physical
recovery. The statement that has really stuck by me is that "post-partum
care is caring for the mother for her to be able to care for her baby to
become healthy and safe."
The Activities and interview was indeed a experience worth
cherishing for a nursing student. In addition, because of the interview
activity, I have learned that everyone has their own curiosities to fill and
that dividing works and allowing everyone the chance to speak is
giving them opportunities to learn. If I was to do thing in a different way,
I would have communicated with my fellow group-mates about the
questions we will ask our Client so that there is a big assurance that
repetitive questions will be avoided. Moreover, I would also like to
involve myself more and participate more for I want to improve my
communication skills and I also want to be more confident in my own
craft.
