A Day in Hospicio

Last March 27, we had our orientation at Hospicio de San Jose, a charitable institution that is a shelter for abandoned babies, elderly and those with mental retardation and special needs. The orientation was a briefing on what we are supposed to do once we start our On-the -Job training which is set to start on April 18. It was a half day talk and afterwards we had a tour of the entire Hospicio...It has opened my eyes to some realities of life - that there are some children who just cannot take care of their old parents, and can leave them in nursing homes and would not even bother to visit them..Such are the cases of most of the elderly clients we met there. And we were even more heart broken when we saw newborns and infants at the nursery, and they are those that have been abandoned by their mothers and some of them were even left outside the gate of hospicio all bundled up in a bag....While we knew the OJT is going to be a tough one, I'd like to take it as a challenge and would look at it as a way of being able to at least show some love and care for the Hospicio's clients who are longing to be cared for. Here's a couple of pictures of our class, inside Hospicio, just enough documentation of that enlightening day for all of us....
