As Academic Year 2025โ€“2026 draws to a close, we celebrate not only the achievements and contributions of every staffer of The Nursesโ€™ Notes, but also the dedication, growth, and camaraderie that have defined this term.

Since 2007, The Nursesโ€™ Notes has remained committed to telling stories that matterโ€”stories grounded in truth, driven by purpose, and written with integrity. Through every issue, feature, and headline, the publication has continued to uphold its responsibility of informing, inspiring, and amplifying voices.

As this chapter comes to an end, our mission remains unchanged: to strengthen journalism and highlight its vital role among students, within the College of Nursing, throughout the institution, and in society as a whole. While this term concludes, the pursuit of truth and meaningful storytelling carries on.

Your Note-Worthy Nursing News Authority since 2007.

Every year on June 5, people around the world celebrate World Environment Day, a reminder that caring for the Earth starts with simple, everyday choices. Whether it's bringing a reusable water bottle, planting a tree, or properly segregating waste, small actions can make a big difference in protecting our planet.

Our environment provides us with clean air, water, food, and natural beauty, yet it faces challenges such as pollution, deforestation, and climate change. While these issues may seem overwhelming, positive change begins when individuals and communities work together. One piece of litter picked up, one plastic bag avoided, or one tree planted can inspire others to do the same.

This World Environment Day, let's make sustainability a habit rather than a one-time effort. By adopting greener practices and encouraging others to care for nature, we can help create a cleaner, healthier, and brighter future. After all, there is no Planet B, and every action counts.

Every year, Dengue Awareness Month serves as an important reminder of the dangers posed by dengue fever and the need for collective action to prevent its spread. Dengue is a mosquito-borne disease that can affect people of all ages, causing symptoms such as high fever, severe headaches, muscle pain, and, in severe cases, life-threatening complications. As cases continue to rise in many communities, awareness and prevention remain our strongest defenses against this disease.

One of the most effective ways to combat dengue is by eliminating mosquito breeding sites. Stagnant water found in containers, old tires, flower pots, and clogged drains provides an ideal environment for mosquitoes to breed. Regular cleaning of surroundings, proper waste disposal, and covering water storage containers can significantly reduce mosquito populations. Communities, schools, and families all play vital roles in maintaining a clean and safe environment.

Dengue prevention is not only the responsibility of health authorities but also of every individual. By staying informed, practicing proper sanitation, and encouraging others to do the same, we can help protect our families and neighbors from dengue. This Dengue Awareness Month, let us unite in promoting cleanliness, vigilance, and community cooperation to create a healthier, safer and dengue-free future for all.

Pride Month is more than just rainbow flags, captions, and trends, it is a reminder that people should never have to fight just to be accepted for who they are.

In a world where judgment is still louder than understanding, choosing to stand proudly in your identity is already an act of courage.

Love, self-expression, and authenticity should never be treated as something controversial. Pride is not about seeking attention, itโ€™s about demanding the respect, safety, and equality that everyone deserves.

Happy Pride Month to those who continue to exist despite the hate, stereotypes, and limitations society tries to place on them.

This month of June, we celebrate Men's Mental Health Month, with the theme "Partners in Care: For Better Lifespans Across the Lifespan." This theme highlights the vital role that families and communities play in supporting healthier outcomes for men at every stage of life.

In this era, men's health issues are often neglected or receiving lesser attention than any others. As a community that is committed to show health equity, our goal is to raise awareness, provide preventive care, and support and encourage men in taking initiatives to fulfill their roles to a healthier being.

Men's Health Month is a reminder that men, in any age, should pay attention to their physical and mental well-being. It is closely related to the health of their families and communities that makes early care and prevention important.

Also, mental health, in general, matters. It is a crucial part of overall health of a person. With this, men still are less likely to ask for help than women. Recent data shows that approximately 10% of adult men experience psychological problems such as depression, but are hesitating to seek help or receive counseling.

Overall, physical and mental health matters. Menโ€™s Health Month reminds us that caring for menโ€™s well-being is not just about individual choicesโ€”it is a shared responsibility of families, communities, and society. By embracing the theme โ€œPartners in Care: For Better Lifespans Across the Lifespan,โ€ we affirm that healthier men mean stronger families and more resilient communities.

Physical health and mental health are inseparable, and both deserve equal attention. Encouraging preventive care, breaking the stigma around seeking help, and encouraging supportive environments can empower men to live longer, healthier, and more fulfilling lives.

Let this month be more than a campaignโ€”it should be a call to action: to listen, to support, and to stand together in building a culture where menโ€™s health is valued, protected, and nurtured across every stage of life.

The Bulacan State University - College of Nursing (BulSU CON) Gold Gear Awards 2026 (GGA 2026) commenced last May 25, 2026, at the BulSU E-Library Amphitheater.

With the theme โ€œSIKLAB AT HUSAY: Pagpupugay sa Nagniningas na Galing ng Narsing,โ€ the event aimed to honor nursing students for their unwavering dedication, perseverance, and excellence throughout their academic journey.

For the prestigious awarding ceremony, Mr. Lawrenz Ruiz Centeno, RN, Nurse III at Joni Villanueva General Hospital (JVGH) and a proud BulSU CON alumnus, served as this yearโ€™s guest speaker.

During his speech, Centeno shared his personal experiences as a nursing student and reflected on the challenges he overcame through perseverance and determination. He inspired students by emphasizing that success is built through resilience, hard work, and passion for service.

Dean Magdalena D. Soyosa, RN, MAN, the college dean, also congratulated the student awardees and commended their dedication not only as students, but also as future healthcare professionals who will serve society with competence and compassion.

The program began with the recognition of the collegeโ€™s Deanโ€™s Listers, followed by the presentation of special awards in student service and for graduating students who demonstrated excellence in academics, leadership, and service.

Amid the celebration, the call for the โ€œCON Stay on Mainโ€ advocacy continues to resonate within the college community. Despite the petitions and collective appeals from students and supporters of it, there are still no official updates regarding the admission of Level 1 students in the college.

Nevertheless, the spirit of unity and commitment among BulSU CON students remains steadfast, reflecting their deep love and dedication not only for the college, but also for the aspirants of the program.

Since its establishment in 2004, the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program of BulSU has produced compassionate and competent nurses who continue to make meaningful contributions in the healthcare field. True to the words of the college hymn, โ€œLong live, BulSU College of Nursing,โ€ the collegeโ€™s legacy of excellence, service, and resilience will continue to inspire generations of future nurses and forever remain in the hearts of its community.
