Sheila Cuesta was among the first group of Filipino nurses to arrive in the UK in 2000 and recently celebrated 25 years working in Ealing Hospital.
“There were 56 of us who came to Ealing and 19 of us are still here,” says the senior sister who works in A&E.
“The staff at the hospital are my second family and I have never felt the need to move.”
Those diehards include Vivien Baquiran, Junirose Gazzingan, Julie Labial, Sandra Elisterio, Lourdes Cortez, Araceli Ramos, Liza Rabajante, Ragi Raganit, Luisa Manalo, Rose de Peralta, Henedina Kadil, Rhodora Joahill, Geoffrey Bonifacio, Maria Nacorda, Daphne Ytable, Jocelyn Nacorda, Judith Palicdon and Cynthia Cenal.
Maligayang Pasko.
