my new toy for the next workshop 🙃

Seriously speaking, medyo nahihirapan ako gawin itong topic na ito kasi ang hirap na mag discuss ka tapos meron ka kaharap na patient tapos wagner grade 5 ang paa at may masabi ako ikakaba nya eh naku po!! kaya i invested on this mannequin para bawat assessment GRADE ay meron akong dummy na magagamit na hindi lang sa picture sa ppt ang laman.

Abangan!!!

For the first time, we conducted a patient demonstration outside the hospital or clinical setting. The workshop was a success, and we thank the nurses for actively engaging with every concept you learned and for validating certain dressing principles that you’ve been applying for a long time—principles that actually contradict current tissue movement and wound healing knowledge. We hope this shed some light and will help improve your practice.

To the chief nurses and supervisors who sent their staff to be empowered—especially those losing sleep over the increasing number of Pseudomonas cases in chronic wounds—I hear your concerns through your staff. We are here to help, just as we’ve done in several hospitals. Now that the gate of change has opened, let’s partner in healing, while respecting the hierarchy from top to bottom.

I would like to thank Dr. Reynaldo Lemos Salinel Jr. PHU Head for providing the standby ambulance through OMMC to ensure the patient’s safety. Many thanks to Dr. Arlene P. Pavo for always being our medical backup for this event and for offering insightful responses that helped our nurses better understand and frame their learning. And thank you also for arranging for the patient to come all the way from Pangasinan—our participants truly appreciated it.

And special thank to Pangasinan MedicalSociety for always supporting our program Yolanda Rufo

To our secretariat and support staff volunteers—Alexis Cantuba DelaCruz Astrid Inocando Nal Nurse Joana of Dr Pavo, Nurse Weng of Sugat Clinic 2, Nurse Lobaton Des for Langgas Wound Care, thank you for consistently supporting our humble advocacy Wound Care Nurses Society of the Philippines Inc..

To my co-trainer and the first RN I trained, Chill Duran: thank you for always taking care of the demos and all the details. You ensure continuity and comfort, and you continue to level up with our colleagues.

And to our participants—thank you for always being responsive, and for realizing, time and again, that we can do more. Even if we may not always have the tools to clean and dress like pros, our Filipino hearts make all the difference.

To our sponsors for always trusting our event to showcase and ensuring their product is used according to tissue movement B. Braun, Calmoseptine, Inc., RBGM Medical Express Sales Inc., and Medi Faith.

isang malaking dillema ito sa ating mga government institution but hindi kasi tayo nagpapadala sa ano ang KULANG but PAANO natin still matutulungan ang ating mga kababayan kahit kapos ang resources.

Dito papasok ang clinical experience and exposure natin para still makatulong sa ating mga patient.

See you there!!!

⏰ LAST DAY TO REGISTER.

Let's talk about what REALLY keeps you up at night.

You work in a government hospital.

Your patient has a chronic wound. You know it needs a moist environment to heal. But your supply cabinet has:

🔹 Gauze (100 pieces, if you're lucky).
🔹 Saline
🔹 3rd solution mixed earlier (bleach, hydrogen perox, acetic acid and distilled water)
🔹 Povidone Iodine (because it's always there).
🔹 Hope (running low).

So what's the evidence say? And what can you ACTUALLY do?

At the Dressing Selection Workshop 2026, we don't just recite the textbook. We tackle the hard questions:

❓ Is moist wound healing even possible in a resource-limited setting?
❓ When do you use what little you have—and when do you fight for more?
❓ How do you partner with your treating physician when the "ideal" dressing isn't available?

Our seasoned wound care educator has been exactly where you are.

They will:

✅ Process your specific challenges.
✅ Provide options based on years of real-world experience.
✅ Show you that healing IS possible—even with gauze and saline—if you understand the PRINCIPLES behind the products.

Because knowledge is the one resource that never runs out.

📅 March 7–8, 2026 | Bayview Park Hotel Manila
⚠️ TODAY is the FINAL DAY of registration.
✅ 13.5 CPD Units
🎟️ WCNSPI Members: ₱3,000 | Non-Members: ₱3,600

Don't let another wound heal slower than it should.

Superheroes in Scrub Suits 👨‍⚕️

For 14 yrs working in the UAE gave me so much exposure and wealth of knowledge and thankful tayo sa pambihirang pagkakataon na yun at ito naman ang mission siguro natin sa buhay at tayo ay magbahagi naman ng ating kaalaaman sa lupang sinilangan.

Ang pag stay ko dito sa Pilipinas ay purely incidental na may kasamang pamimilit at pag realize from Dr. Salinel na kailangan tayo dito from his experience na naparakaming sugat na hindi nabibigyan pansin, our tandem will make a huge impact in the community which hindi maitatanggi na nangyari. Kaya malaki ang pasasalamat natin kay doc.

Sa dinami rami ng RN sa UAE, blessed and honored at natutuwa tayo at nagpapasalamat dahil napansin sa di natin inaasahan na pagkakataon dahil busy na tayo dito sa ating advocacy at clinic. Thank YOU Sir Ulysses V. Espartero for giving a small space na mapasama dito.

Maraming salamat sa mga kaibigan, kakilala, kabahagi at naging sandalan natin sa mga panahon dun tayo naglilingkod. For now, Pilipino muna ang ating priority 💚💚😍

Again, kapag nagsama ang doctor at NURSES sa chronic wound, PASYENTENG PILIPINO ANG PANALO!!!
