Abstract

This research study was designed to determine the knowledge, attitudes, and practices on antibiotic use among patients of Rural Health Units in the 5th Congressional District of Camarines Sur, Philippines. Specifically, it aimed to determine the relationship between the demographic profile of the patients and the knowledge, attitudes, and practices on antibiotic use. We also analyze the relationship between the factors that influence antibiotic use and the knowledge, attitudes, and practices and develop educational materials for awareness campaign and counseling. This study uses the descriptive-survey method, of which the questionnaire as the primary data gathering tool supplemented by guided interviews. We used the quota sampling method to determine the 350 respondents in the study. We selected 50 patients from each municipality using the convenience method. Most of the patient’s antibiotics use were highly influenced by the financial problem or personal factors, environmental factors, lack of knowledge and information on antibiotics, and socio-economic factors. The personal, environmental, and socio-economic factors that influence antibiotic use are significantly related to the patients' knowledge, attitudes, and antibiotic use practices. The educational materials developed in the study may enhance the level of awareness upon its utilization during educational campaign and patients counseling.

Abstract

This study explored the lived experiences of twenty-six (26) Filipino nurses working in the medical and surgical departments of Darlington Memorial Hospital (DMH), United Kingdom. Using a descriptive research design and a self-developed, expert-validated survey, the study examined their cultural adaptation, workplace environment, and support systems. It also analyzed the relationship between their demographic profiles (age, sex, civil status, length of service, and department) and these experiences. The results showed that most respondents were young (31–40 years old), female, married, and relatively new to DMH (1–3 years of service), with many working in the Operating Room. Overall, participants expressed positive experiences (grand mean = 3.16), with the workplace environment receiving the highest rating (mean = 3.29, "Strongly Agree"), particularly in understanding local healthcare practices. Cultural adaptation received the lowest rating (mean = 3.08, "Agree"), with participation in local community events identified as the most challenging aspect. Statistical analysis revealed significant relationships between age and all aspects of lived experience, between civil status and both cultural adaptation and support systems, and between length of service and both cultural adaptation and workplace environment. No significant association was found between department type and the nurses’ lived experiences. Based on these findings, the study recommends implementing culturally sensitive training, language and technical skills development, mentorship programs, enhanced mental health support, and community engagement initiatives. It also encourages experienced Filipino nurses to mentor newcomers and suggests that relevant Philippine agencies support these professionals through housing assistance and active workplace engagement.

Abstract

This study aimed to assess the triage management of trauma patients among hospitals in the 5th District of Camarines Sur, Philippines, focusing on the interventions practiced by triage management team members and the relationship between their profiles and applied strategies. Employing a quantitative descriptive research design, data were collected through a validated questionnaire checklist administered to selected triage personnel. Statistical tools such as percentage technique, weighted mean, and chi-square test were utilized to analyze and interpret the data systematically. The findings revealed that hospitals have begun integrating strategic plans to equip triage personnel with essential knowledge and skills, thereby reducing the risks of overtriage and undertriage. Results also emphasized the importance of adopting standardized protocols and the need for a more comprehensive and evidence-based definition of trauma patients requiring specialized care. Furthermore, the study highlighted the significance of emergency preparedness—particularly during mass casualty incidents—through effective personnel deployment and structured triage systems. The introduction of an intervention-based triage management guide was found to enhance decision-making processes and patient prioritization. Future research is recommended to explore the long-term effectiveness of standardized triage training programs, as well as the development of region-specific protocols that consider local healthcare capacities, infrastructure, and challenges. Continued efforts in triage innovation and training evaluation are essential to advance trauma care practices and improve patient outcomes in diverse healthcare settings.

Abstract

This study examines wound care practices among healthcare providers managing patients with comorbidities in hospitals in the 5th District of Camarines Sur, Philippines. Using a descriptive-evaluative design, data were collected from 147 nurses through structured questionnaires and analyzed using frequency, percentage, weighted mean, and chi-square tests. Findings indicate that wound care practices are generally “very much practiced,” particularly in wound cleaning, dressing, documentation, and patient education. However, gaps remain in the use of standardized assessment tools and educational resources. Statistical analysis revealed that age, educational attainment, area of assignment, length of service, and training significantly influence wound care practices, while sex does not. Common challenges include delayed wound healing, infection risks, and patient noncompliance. The study proposes a comprehensive wound care management program integrating early detection, multidisciplinary collaboration, and continuous professional development. These findings highlight the need for standardized protocols and capacity-building initiatives to improve patient outcomes in complex clinical settings.
