This study attempted to capture the lived experiences of the top performers in the different health sciences licensure examinations in a selected university. Descriptive phenomenological method was used to extract information on the experiences of the eight top performers from the four departments: Nursing, Medical Technology, Psychology, and Dentistry who graduated from a selected university in Silang, and are currently working in the Philippines. A formulated set of questions served as the primary method for data collection. Triangulation of the data utilizing interviews with their deans and instructors was used and thematic analysis was done using Collaizi’s method. Three emergent themes encapsulated the experiences of the informants before, during and after the licensure exam. First is their preparation, with four occurring facets: academic, spiritual, psychosocial, and physical. The next theme is anxiety, wherein all of the eight informants claimed the notion of inadequacy of knowledge and possibility of failing. The last theme is the impact of the licensure exam success in the lives of the top performers, with three commonalities among them: strengthened faith, increased opportunity, and widened influence. It was evident that a holistic approach was seen in the preparation of the informants and despite the anxiety, they were able to perform satisfactorily which brought them advances in their professional career and spiritual life. Holistic approach should be considered in designing learning plans to produce high-performing graduates.","PeriodicalId":7363,"journal":{"name":"Abstract Proceedings International Scholars Conference","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75564730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is reported that millions are infected with the disease yearly, causing thousands of deaths. The Dengvaxia issue occurred when Sanofi Pasteur announced that the vaccine, which has been administered to grade-schoolers in the Philippines, can only be effective for those who have been previously infected with dengue. It has also been reported that the immunization program of the Philippines has been experiencing a decrease in the immunization rate. The study aimed to look into the influence of the Dengvaxia issue on mothers’ perceptions on child vaccination. This study employed a qualitative phenomenological research design. To recruit for participants, a purposive sampling method and snowball sampling methods were utilized to select 11 participants. A validated semi-structured questionnaire was used for the interview. Participants included mothers of children ages 0-24 months who have knowledge of the Dengvaxia issue. The data gathered were then analyzed using standardized methods. The findings of the study revealed that on the Dengvaxia issue, the themes were fear, empathy, and anger. On the mother’s perception towards vaccination, the themes were protection and giving up authority. Also, in terms of the influence of Dengvaxia Issue on child vaccination, identified themes were vaccine confidence and vaccine hesitancy. Furthermore, the study also revealed that nine out of the 11 mothers are still in favor of their children being vaccinated. It was therefore recommended that nurses must do continuous health education about the positive effects of immunizations in the community.","PeriodicalId":7363,"journal":{"name":"Abstract Proceedings International Scholars Conference","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82626064","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Further, it determined what dental procedure is mostly utilized by the patients. The data were based on annual dental records of AUP Dental Department and oral interviews. From the dental record of the year 2017, a total of 2,472 patients visited the dental clinic for the following procedures: oral prophylaxis (40%), tooth extraction (13%), tooth restoration (14%), prosthodontics (7%) and orthodontics (25%). Among the dental procedures, women are always higher in number compared to men. In terms of gender, 960 or 39% of men and 1,512 or 69% of women visited the clinic revealing that women have dental visits more often than men. Oral prophylaxis and orthodontic are two of the most availed dental procedure while prosthodontics is the least. Despite AUP Clinic’s promotion for health care and health care services, dental health care utilization remains very low relating to the whole university population. Women are more concerned with oral health than men, contrary to other researches that males have higher oral health knowledge score than females. Gender differences have no significance in terms of dental care utilization. Participants’ oral health knowledge is at least average and they showed positive attitude towards dental treatment. It is recommended that more oral or dental health campaign be done; utilization of dental service fee among students be promoted; and the importance of oral health be taught.","PeriodicalId":7363,"journal":{"name":"Abstract Proceedings International Scholars Conference","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88865678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Oftentimes, the mentally ill are viewed as dangerous, unpredictable, and bizarre, which brings fear to other individuals, including health professionals. Professional care providers suffer from common fears and apprehension upon contact with the patient. Professional stigma, which refers to the nursing students’ fears towards exposure to mentally ill patients, was explored in this study. The study utilized a phenomenological research design. Semi-structured interviews were conducted among ten nursing students from a university in Cavite and triangulation of the data using interviews with clinical instructors and blockmates was employed. Thematic analysis was done using Colaizzi’s approach. Findings showed that mental illness was considered as a poor coping mechanism that results in mental dysfunction, disturbance of a normal pattern of thinking, and a point of struggle to adjust to the society for acceptance. Themes that emerged regarding fear before mental health exposure were fear of physical harm or violence, transference, and inadequacy in delivery of care. However, after exposure, the fears were observed to be minimal. Based on the findings of the study, it was recommended that schools of nursing which expose their students in the psychiatric ward must include briefing and debriefing of students. Clinical instructors should orient nursing students prior to exposure to the mental ward to desensitize them. In addition, emphasis on the importance of increasing awareness on how stigma affects society and the mentally ill must be given importance in order to provide efficient nursing care.","PeriodicalId":7363,"journal":{"name":"Abstract Proceedings International Scholars Conference","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75115489","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
