Previously, she was involved with the CAUTI Committee. Her suggestion regarding the use of "Reliafit" condom catheters was adopted by the hospital. Currently, she is leading the Progressive Mobility Committee. Through this initiative, she has taught nurses on thenursing care strategies that can be implemented with patients with different levels of immobility. She has monitored nurses' compliance with this initiative. She also did poster presentations regarding "Progressive Mobility" at the Advanced Nursing Conference sponsored by Drexel University in Philadelphia and at the University of the Philippines Alumni Association Conference in New York City.
