More than just Scrubs
Welcome to Life, Shifts & Scrubs, a space for authentic reflections on healthcare life, navigating change, and personal growth. Join me as I share my journey as a Filipino NHS nurse in the UK, with all its challenges and triumphs.
My Journey
This space captures my life behind the scrubs—working, growing, and sometimes struggling as a nurse abroad. I write about the challenges of adjusting to a different healthcare culture, the emotional weight of the job, and the changes that come with building a life far from home. Above all, this blog is a record of learning, resilience, and staying true to myself.
Beyond the Ward
Life, Shifts & Scrubs goes beyond nursing tips and clinical talk. It’s a space about evolving through change, growing into who you’re becoming, and holding onto yourself in the fast-paced world of healthcare. You’ll find honest stories from the front lines, reflections on self-care, and reminders of the strength it takes to keep showing up—even when it’s hard.
"LifeShifts & Scrubs is a breath of fresh air. Finally, an honest perspective on the realities of being a Filipino nurse in the NHS."
