Rita Villanueva-Tamse’s list of what our nurses need from their administrators and leaders especially in times of crisis like the present—to know that their superiors are ready to listen to their concerns, help them navigate the changes necessitated by the COVID-19 pandemic, and address their needs.
“Capacitating Oneself for the New Normal” emphasized the relevance of gender inclusion and appreciative resilience to psychosocial well-being in crisis response. Organized by the Social Work Program of the UP Open University (UPOU) Faculty of Management and Development Studies as part of UPOU’s Let’s Talk it Over online lecture series, the event was streamed on May 27 in UPOU Networks.
