At that time I didn\u2019t know anything about nursing.<\/p>\n<p>After passing my school-level certificate I studied nursing at Tansen Nursing School in 2009 for three years. Passing this, I joined United Mission Hospital Tansen as a staff nurse. I worked there for over two years. I really enjoyed working there and learnt so many things related to nursing, how to deal with patients, how to show empathy and sympathy to patients and their visitors, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Next came Bachelor of Nursing, with another three years of study. Later, while I was working for a short time at another hospital, one day I was in conversation with my friend who works at Okhaldhunga Community Hospital. She told me about a vacancy at Okhaldhunga School of Health Sciences (OSHS) for a Nursing Tutor. I was successful in being appointed as a junior nursing instructor and began work here in late 2019. Within four months the COVID-19 pandemic arrived, disrupting every aspect of life. Our nursing school was closed for eight months and the students were sent to their homes. The School was turned into a COVID isolation ward. During that time, I worked in the in-patient wards which provided refreshment for my clinical knowledge. I am grateful for that opportunity to serve people who needed health care throughout OCH.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2021, I have been working at OCH as Deputy Nursing Superintendent. I always wanted to work in rural areas of my country. This is my journey with UMN hospitals: Tansen to Okhaldhunga. I found a pleasant working environment at OCH where the small group of medical teams are like a family. I have learned many new things and honed my skills whilst working here and I am willing to learn more in the future in a managerial role. So far, I have partially completed my childhood dream. I am definitely still learning about the position that I have here at OCH and I will give 100% effort in seeking improvement for the nursing department.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to thank our almighty God who gives me lots of blessings and strengthens me more and more. I am sincerely thankful to my line managers, supportive friends, and all staff. I am not able to achieve my goals without your support. I am also grateful to all who gave encouragement and advice for the managerial role.<\/p>\n<p>Now you have an idea of the blessings I have experienced so far at Okhaldhunga Community Hospital! I hope and pray that OCH will grow even bigger and better and be able to provide all kinds of quality treatment and facilities in the coming days.<\/p>\n<p><strong>KRISTINA PRITHI<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Acting Nursing Superintendent<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I was a child one day my school teacher asked me \u201cKristina what are your dreams?\u201d I answered promptly, \u201cI want to be a nurse and work in a remote area\u201d.
