New generation of professionals from the UCN Faculty of Medicine is committed to contributing to the health of our country « UCN News up to date – Universidad Católica del Norte

Two ceremonies held on Thursday, January 19, summoned the new professionals with degrees in Nursing, Kinesiology, Medicine, and Nutrition and Dietetics, who completed their undergraduate training cycles.

These are 185 new professionals, who pledged to put their vocation at the service of the health of their future patients.

During the ceremony, Dr. Elvira Badilla Poblete delivered a message to graduates. “Give yourself the space to forget and start from scratch, that each day is not an eternal memory, but a moment to leave behind what you have learned and be available so that your minds can always learn something new. If we want to learn, says neuroscience, we must forget. Thomas Kuhn already said it in his structure of scientific revolutions: ‘to advance we must question the existing paradigms, enter into crisis, this will allow us to grow, open up to this new world that is presented to us full of new concepts and paradigms that are in permanent crisis’. Good luck for a lifetime of learning, thank you very much for trusting in the UCN and congratulations on this new stage”, she declared.

For her part, the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine, Dr. Giselle Myer Morales, stated that “being a health professional implies being with people in the most difficult moments of their lives. In those moments of pain, overwhelm and vulnerability, which afflict not only them but also their families. And in the midst of a system that is sometimes ungrateful and individualistic, your cordial and empathetic treatment will be essential. I am convinced that during their formative years we have given them not only sufficient clinical knowledge, but also the tools to fulfill the role that society and its patients expect and deserve.”

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

In this context, the Faculty of Medicine awarded outstanding representatives of each of the careers, with the distinctions falling on the following students:

NUTRITION: Outstanding student, Ignacia Peace Tagle Courteous; Best alum of Generation 2022, Ayleen Catherine Pulled Bull.

KINESIOLOGY: Outstanding student, ALEJANDRO MAYO MENA; Best student of Generation 2022, Victoria Andrea Araya Carvajal.

NURSING: Outstanding student, Felipe Letelier Muñoz; Best student of Generation 2022, Valentina Paz Ramos Leiva.

MEDICINE: Outstanding student, Romina Esperanza Rojas Robles; Best student of the Generation 2022, Ornella Marie Onetto Díaz.

For those who received awards during the ceremony, the recognition represents a reward for the effort, as revealed by the nutritionist, Ignacia Tagle Cortés, for whom it is “a reflection of the effort during all these years, as well as the camaraderie that is generated in the networks with my colleagues, which allowed -in my case- to obtain a good performance, but obviously, it went hand in hand with teamwork”.

“It is a very important moment that reflects my personal achievements and also that of my family, who have supported me unconditionally. Receiving the recognition was very exciting and is a reflection of my effort and my achievements”, explained the medical student, Ornella Onetto Díaz.

In addition, as is tradition, the Faculty of Medicine presented the “Constanza Pedreros Beroíza” award in recognition of the deceased medical student, who stood out for her love of life, her patients, generosity, solidarity, humility and camaraderie, qualities that made her deserve the affection and admiration of her classmates, teachers and academy support staff.

Said award was received by Macarena Ledezma Arancibia and Darinka Núñez Torres, graduates in Nutrition and Dietetics, and Nursing, respectively.

In relation to the recognition, the student Darinka Núñez Torres explained that it represents a source of pride. “This award makes a difference because it is regarding representing values, which is very important if you are studying a health career. I was very surprised, I didn’t think they would recognize me among so many people. I feel very proud and happy,” she expressed.

TRANSCENDENT MOMENT

For new health professionals, the milestone of graduation ceremonies represents a moment of reflection on their past and also on their projections.

“It is a moment of personal fulfillment, an achievement, a goal accomplished, which has been possible thanks to the support of family and friends. It is the closing of a cycle and the beginning of an adult stage, with responsibilities and new goals to continue fulfilling”, indicated the now nurse, Felipe Alzamora Díaz.

Opinion shared by Sophia Jofré Olivares, graduate of Kinesiology. “I am very happy, it is a goal that one sees as far away and when the day comes it is very exciting. As time went by I fell in love with the degree and the boarding school made me confirm that I had chosen my profession well. Today I want to continue studying to continue improving myself, for example, in cardiorespiratory diseases, so that I hope I can continue my studies in this area, ”she declared.

Health with vocation, commitment and excellence will be the watchword of this new generation of graduates, who recognize the value that their work represents for the well-being of their future patients and for the development of the entire community.
