AUBREY ROSE A. VIDON

1. Approaches to Improving Emotional Health of Student Nurses in Our Lady of Fatima

University

Most students suffered from emotional stress because of too many school works
especially those nursing students in Our Lady of Fatima University. As a nursing student, I chose
this topic because I encountered a lot of individuals who suffered from emotional stress and I
want to gain more understanding about views about this topic.

2. Modern Vaccination Programs in Rural and Remote Areas in Nueva Ecija

- Vaccines reduce disease by directly protecting the vaccine and by indirectly protecting non-
immune people. It is important to study this kind of topic to improve the vaccination programs
especially in poor area.

3. Perspective of 1st Year Nursing Student of Our Lady of Fatima about Online Class

- This pandemic made a lot of changes in our daily lives and all of the student postpone their
studies in their schools to avoid being infected by the virus. Since the COVID-19 cases are
increasing, it is still impossible to have a face to face class and the only option we had is the
online class. The reason why I choose this topic is to know their perspective about online class
and how it affects their studies.

4. Future of Healthcare and Medicine based on Modern Innovation in District Hospitals in

the Nueva Ecija

- Most district hospitals in the Philippines doesn’t have enough medical equipment to treat
their patients that why their only option is to transfer them in big hospitals who has more high
quality equipment and reliable doctors. The reason why I choose this topic is to become
familiarize with latest developments in order to be able to control technology and not the other
way round.

5. Why do patients suffer from Anxiety Disorder?

- Patients know their fear is excessive and they cannot control it. Anxiety helps us to identify
and respond to ‘fight or flight’ mode. But there is another side to anxiety especially to those
people who has some illnesses.

6. Causes of Depression in times of Pandemic

- Depression is serious topic nowadays especially to the youth, since we don’t usually go out
and make some fun. I want to study this topic because I want to know more the cause or why
did people experience this kind of mood disorder.

7. What causes sleep disorders in women?

- This topic may be helpful for nurses or student who experiences this kind of disorder.

8. The Future of Nursing in the Digital Age

- I choose this topic to know whether using technology is more effective in the nursing
profession in the near future.

9. The Problem of the shortage of Nurses in the Philippines and how to deal with this
problem.

- The purpose of this study is to determine the problem of every nurse who chooses to go
abroad than staying here in the Philippines to work.

10. The stress effects of night shifts in some hospitals in Cabanatuan City.

- Every hospital and state is a little different, but there is no denying that the night shift
differential plays a big role in why night shift nurses stay on nights. Being a night shift also has a
negative impact on your mental health.
DINA MUTYA V. ORDINARIO
1. Becoming a Registered Nurse in the Philippines: A Praxis Analysis

I am keen to learn about the trends in nursing education in the Philippines. I am also
looking for real reason and searching for answers about how Filipinos are pursuing this kind of
career and fascinated to go to developed countries. What kind of motivations does the Filipinos
willing to sacrifice in order to drive them outside our borders bringing all the knowledge and
skills they gained.

2. Discernment of OLFU-Cabanatuan Nursing students to Nurses and Doctors

Opportunities

Nursing students commonly view and considers Nurses and Doctors as professionals and
skillfully sound, traits and values unparalleled, but I am also one of those students who want to
enlighten all about opportunities and relationship of these two professions.

3. Human Economics for Medical Professionals in the Province of Nueva Ecija

I wanted to learn about how many medical workers we have and if these numbers can
still provide the quality of nursing needed in the province. Since the opportunities and are still
growing in the global arena for young and competitive Filipino nurses, how many more are
choosing to stay and provide services to our “kababayans”.

4. Repercussions of Gender Sensitivity in Choosing Healthcare Provider of Cabanatueños

As many controversial cases regarding Patient’s Rights I want to learn if there are
impacts on how they choose their health provider. Patients must be fully aware that the main
objective of many medical practitioners is the patient’s welfare. How the patients reacts
regarding their right, are they not willing to continue the services if they not get their
preferences of either male/female or LGBTQA++?
 5. Controlling Mental and Physical Health of Novo Ecijanos to “New Normal”

All people around the world are greatly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and as I
keenly observing all activities of human beings I cannot help but wonder how does people
manage and cope up with their activities physically and mentally while adjusting to our “New
Normal”.

6. Perceptions of Cabanatuan City Residents regarding Telehealth in the Philippines

I want to know if Cabanatuan City residents are ready for telemedicine. There are some
reasons that telehealth consultations can be more accessible in a way that patients can easily
book and make appointments on top of it this can be more affordable compare to clinic visit.
Perhaps it is also time manageable for people having trouble making appointments and
visitation.

7. Sex education in Response for Increasing rate of Teenage Pregnancy

Teenage pregnancy affects 5.99 percent of Filipino girls which is the second highest rate
in Southeast Asia based on Save the Children’s Global Childhood Report (2019). An estimated
538 babies are born to Filipino teenage mothers every single day, according to Philippine
Statistical Authority (2017). As a mother, this is alarming for me and other families out there
thinking that they cannot safeguard their children because we cannot always be there 24/7 to
watch them. Comprehensive Sexuality Education may be the answer for us to help guide our
children and educate them with proper teaching inside the schools.

8. Reasonable, Healthy and Effective Diet of Filipinos amidst COVID-19 Pandemic

We are prepared for the global pandemic and no one does. We have to adjust mainly to
secure our health and safety of our lives. One reason for so many concerns is our food, how do
we eat and what do we eat? Staying fit and healthy comes along not just with exercise but with
healthy diet that is why I chose this topic.

9. A study of On-line Classes for students with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

(ADHD)
 I am eager to share the future outputs of this study because previous studies and
researches have already share outputs that homeschooling or on-line classes benefits the
students with ADHD while majority of the students having trouble coping up with the new
system we are using for the “New Normal”.

10. Family Relationships: Turning In the time lost before COVID-19

We are still battling with this COVID-19 and dealing with fear and anxiety for this virus we have
to recreate and rekindle the lost space and time for our family and love ones. I personally
wanted to have a research on this to share blessing in disguise that brought to us by this
pandemic. Family will always be family and to enable us to jump out of this hurdle again is for
us to stay strong along with the support of our love ones.

I generally chose these topics mainly for my personal concerns. Being a returning
student at the age of 35 years old, wife and a mother at the same time leaves me nothing but
fear and piling of responsibilities. More importantly that frightens me is the uncertainty amid
the COVID-19 pandemic. My 10 topics will surely help me to cope up in my current situation to
make adjustments and act reasonably. I will use all the outputs and data of these researches to
educate people with similar experiences that will serves us guide and to contribute to other
students, readers, and researchers for future endeavors.
