Introduction:
Organizations, including higher education institutions (HEIs), have been mandated to protect employees from the threats of the COVID-19.
Objective:
This study sought to describe the perceptions of essential school workers (ESWs) of selected HEIs in the southern Manila area in terms of how they were capacitated in compliance with national guidelines,
Methods:
A total of seven HEIs participated in this qualitative study. Focus group discussions (FGDs) were conducted among four sectors of ESWs: security, maintenance, health services, and office staff. Thematic analysis was used to draw insights from the narratives of the FGDs.
Results:
Three themes emerged from the FGDs: material capacitation, programmatic capacitation, and issues and challenges.
Conclusion
This study highlights that from the perspective of ESWs, HEIs in the southern Manila area exert efforts to comply with IATF guidelines through various expressions of material and programmatic capacitation to protect them from the threat of COVID-19. However, results also demonstrate challenges that deter full compliance and consistent implementation of the guidelines across institutions.

4.Reflections on a qualitative interview.
Philippine Journal of Health Research and Development 2019;23(2):54-58
Interviewing is one of the more commonly deployed data collection method in qualitative research. Textbooks and journal articles abound that describe the process for conducting various types of interviews. In this paper, I offer a short methodological and reflexive discussion of an interview I conducted as part of a course requirement, focusing on the potential impact of the interview process on the collection and interpretation of data. The purpose of this paper is to draw researchers' attention to some issues that may arise in the context of a qualitative interview, and to propose possible approaches to addressing these.

6.Experiences of Clinical Nurses Aged over 40 as Shift Workers.
Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing Administration 2014;20(5):514-524
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of clinical nurses over 40 years of age who were shift workers. METHODS: Data were collected from in-depth interviews with 10 clinical nurses over 40 years of age who had at least 10 years of clinical experience and who worked in 5 acute care hospitals. The data were analyzed using Braun & Clark's thematic analysis. RESULTS: One main theme, 3 themes, and 9 subthemes were derived. The main theme was "Sustaining a position still in conflict", and themes were as follows; "Being trained as a professional nurse", "Having unfavorable working conditions and damaged self-esteem", "Trying hard to get a sense of value as an experienced nurse" CONCLUSION: The results of this study show the issues of age and generational diversities in nurses in acute care hospitals. It is necessary to explore various ways to utilize the experience of older clinical nurses for the integrity of nursing organization and the development of the nursing profession.

7.A Grounded Theory-Based Approach to Practice Adaptation Process of Hemodialysis Unit Nurses.
Journal of Korean Academy of Nursing Administration 2013;19(1):128-137
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to generate a grounded substantive theory for the practice adaptation process of hemodialysis unit nurses. METHODS: Participants in this study were 10 nurses working in one of two hemodialysis units. Data were collected through tape recorded in-depth interviews done between December, 2011 and February, 2012. Data were analyzed using grounded theory methodology. RESULTS: From the participants' statements, 43 concepts, 18 subcategories and 10 categories were extracted through the open cording process. The 10 categories were: "Burden", "Role conflict", "Fearful", "Conflict of emotion", "Lack systematic job training", "Lack support system", "Compassion", "Rapport created", "Sense of duty", and "Growth." The core category was discovered to be 'recognized growth'. Phenomenon was identified as 'burnout' and this series of processes was categorized as having three stages: 'conflict', 'acceptance', 'growth'. CONCLUSION: The results of this study provide useful information about the needs of Hemodialysis Unit Nurses during the practice adaptation process based on their stages and types of practice adaptation. Finally, this study contributes data for the development of intervention programs that support the Hemodialysis Unit Nurses' practice adaptation.

8.A Phenomenological Study on Oncology Adaptation Experiences of New Nurses.
Asian Oncology Nursing 2014;14(2):127-138
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to understand the meaning and nature of adaptation experiences among newly employed nurses in oncology ward. METHODS: The present study adopted a phenomenological method. The participants were 9 nurses employed for less than one year. Data were collected by using in-depth interviews. The question of this study was, "What are your experiences as a newly employed nurse in oncology?" RESULTS: 150 significant statements were extracted from the data, and these were clustered into 5 main categories: a 'Difficulty in performing the work of a cancer ward', 'problems with interpersonal relationships', 'striving to be a good nurse', 'satisfaction and rewarding nursing', and 'adapted oneself to be a nurse'. CONCLUSION: Newly employed nurses in oncology ward experienced and perceived feelings of difficulty in performing the work of a cancer ward, problems with interpersonal relationships, striving to be a good nurse, satisfaction and rewarding nursing, and adapting oneself to be a nurse. It is necessary to understand the experiences of new nurses, and to provide strategies that could help new nurses effectively adapt and find the meaning in their adaptation to work in oncology wards. Further research is needed on development of a program focusing on training to improve practicing ability and interpersonal relationships skills.

Journal of Korean Academy of Fundamental Nursing 2016;23(1):21-31
PURPOSE: This study is a qualitative research to identify new nurses' adaptation experience to sleep changes. METHODS: Grounded theory methodology was utilized. Participants were 10 new nurses from one university hospital. The information was collected and analyzed using the grounded theory of Corbin and Strauss'(2008). RESULTS: Through constant comparative analysis, central phenomenon was identified as 'Shaky daily life due to the sleep change'. A core category emerged as 'In the shaky daily life, go grab my position', Causal conditions were 'Heaviness in shift work', 'Not released after getting off work', and 'Body and mind are exhausted'. Context were 'An environment that does not tolerate mistakes' and 'Clogged breathing due to worries'. Intervening factors were 'Support of colleagues', 'Recovery volition in restoration of altered relationships due to sleep'. Action/Interaction Strategies were 'To strive for a good sleep', 'Require a reasonable duty schedule' and 'Find a breakthrough'. Consequences were 'Become the master of shaky daily life' and 'Accepting the life of a nurse'. CONCLUSION: New nurses experience sleep patterns changes from the hospital shift system. but throughout the process of adaptation, came to accept sleep disorder as part of the life of a nurse.
