On its Ruby Jubilee Annual Convention and Scientific
Meeting of the Operating Room Nurse’s Association of the Philippines, Inc
(ORNAP) held last January 4-6,2014 at The Tent, Manila Hotel, the ORNAP-Iloilo
Chapter was awarded as The Best Performing Local Chapter for the fiscal year
2013-2014
After careful deliberation of the sixteen existing ORNAP
local chapter by the Committee on Awards of the ORNAP National Officers, the
Iloilo Chapter had finally bagged ORNAP’s most sought after recognition second
to the Consuelo Gomez Arabit Award.
The local chapter had not only maintained its steady
increase in the number of members for the year, but the regular monthly
activities, collaboration with other organizations and local government units,
including winning the first place in the Research Congress held in the
Philippine Heart Center last May of 2014 with the paper entitled, Compliance to
Preoperative Visit of Operating Room Nurses of St. Paul’s Hospital Iloilo which
had said to change the dynamics of preoperative nursing. Not to mention, the
Iloilo Chapter was the only local chapter that has managed to be awarded by the
Professional Regulation Commission with Seven (7) Continuing Education Units on
its Annual Regional Convention held last January of 2014. All these were made
possible under the leadership of former President, Miguel Angelo Labayan (SPH)
and current President, Demelen Gancero (WVMC).
Indeed, it’s a victory not only for the dedicated officers
of the ORNAP Iloilo Chapter but for all the Ilonggo nurses who have supported
and contributed in their own way in making this achievement possible.
