Carmelita A. Divinagracia
Master of Nursing in 1975, and a doctoral degree holder in 2001, has been
lauded for developing the art and competency of teaching nursing. She has lectured
and written about her work as a nurse and how she has used her hands-on
experience to develop better ways to teach nursing. Her love for nursing and her
dedication to carve out learning tools for nursing students has been a commendable
and rare field of discipline. As a teacher, she could not be anything else but a perfect
thesis adviser. She has teamed up with the Commission on Higher Education for the
drafting of a higher standard of competency in nursing schools in the Philippines.
She can be considered as a part of nursing measure since it contributes to the
well being of the patients.
