Darlene Dilangalen-Borromeo

A Word from The Editor

Oliver Oliveros

How to Strike a Balance Between Work and Personal Life “Balance, peace, and joy are the fruit of a successful life. It starts with recognizing your talents and finding ways to serve others by using them.” — Thomas Kinkade Those words from the late American painter Thomas Kinkade (1958-2012) perfectly describes our cover-story subject in this summer issue of Fil-Am Who’s Who: veteran psychiatric nurse Darlene Dilangalen-Borromeo. Originally from Lagao, General Santos City, Darlene specializes in mental health and gerontology while raising her family, together with her husband, Jesus “Bong” Borromeo. With more than 30 years of professional experience, she takes pride in what she does. “Whatever project I do or whatever I’m involved in, it’s still about my being a nurse. I’m a nurse first before I became a wife before I became a mother. But all of these come together to define who I am,” Darlene shares more on pages 10-12. Unlike Darlene, if you find it difficult to achieve a balance between your working hours at the office and your personal time at home, you are not alone. However, there are practical means and ways to attain that elusive balance. Here are some: Know Your Limitations: Start delegating your tasks, e.g. research work, presentation materials, among your staff or employees. Also, teach your son or daughter to do the laundry or shop for groceries when you’re away from home. Prioritize: List down what are the most important to-do list for the day and what can be done tomorrow or by the end of the week. Eat Healthily: Eat a variety of foods in small amounts. A healthy diet is a key to a sound mind and body. Put Down Your Mobile Phone: Don’t you realize you’re spending a lot more time on your phone and social media nowadays instead of getting up to exercise, walk your dog, or strike a conversation with your colleagues, friends, and family? Plan Holidays: Together with your family and close friends, take a short break from work at least twice in a year.

Consul Kerwin Orville Tate

I

f ever you find yourself having to come to the New York Philippine Consulate to seek legal advice on overseas labor issues and the like, then more likely than not, you will get to meet the ever-dependable and trustworthy Consul Kerwin Orville Tate, who heads the Consulate’s Assistanceto-Nationals (ATN) Section. Fondly known for his cordial demeanor and infectious booming laughter, the bespectacled, bearded Consul Tate has graced the New York Fil-Am community with his services since he assumed his post at the Consulate in December 2014. Throughout almost three years of his tour-of-duty, he has provided his counsel to many clients on issues ranging from queries on medical repatriation, to wage and salary complaints, to domestic violence cases. He has also ably provided consular assistance to disadvantaged applicants requiring assistance in passport renewal and legal documentation, and this has been strongly evident through his periodic leadership of consular outreach services conducted by the Consulate throughout different cities in the Northeast U.S., effectively delivering consular services to community members who are unable to travel to the Consulate due to conflicting work schedules or longdistance commuting. A native of Naga City, he earned his undergraduate degree from the Ateneo De Naga, and his law degree from the Far Eastern University. Consul Tate decided to pursue a career in international diplomacy after having worked in the House of Representatives. He passed the Foreign Service Officers’ Examination in the Philippines in 1999, and went on to initially serve at the DFA Home Office at the Property, Management, and Transportation Division. He served in his first diplomatic post at the Pacific island of Guam, a relatively tranquil environment with an active Filipino community that he thoroughly enjoyed during his 7-year assignment. He is very happily married to the lovely Issa De la Cruz, with whom he has one son. Together now, they are enjoying the fine attractions which the great city of New York and its vibrant community has to offer. Among the notable accomplishments that Consul Tate will always be proud of was his service as Overall Chairperson of the Overseas Absentee Voting Board, which supervised the conduct of elections during the May 2016 Philippine Presidential elections. Working tirelessly at the New York Philippine Center for many late nights and weekends to galvanize the community to work together to spread the word about the elections, and registering and collecting as much of the community voting ballots as possible, and with the help of the Consulate officers, staff, and many able-bodied and dedicated volunteers from the community (including his wife, Issa), Consul Tate led a successful effort to make the crucial votes of the Northeast U.S. community count, ultimately leading to the election of our current Philippine President Rodrigo Roa Duterte. Consul Tate has yet much more to offer the New York Filipino community within the next few years of his assignment, may God bless him and his family ever more!

Torn between nursing and teaching — why not do both?

T

ransitioning from a nursing practice to a teaching role not only offers nurses another job opportunity; it can also provide the personal satisfaction from educating the next generation of nurses. A nurse educator’s role is to encourage, nurture, and inspire individuals and groups, which enables them to realize their full potential and achieve success. Nurse educator, researcher, and author Dr. Dula Pacquiao knew early on that being a teacher and a nurse is her calling. “I always wanted to be a teacher and nursing was one of the few fields where women have the opportunity to succeed.” The central mission of nursing is caring for others and nursing education “is critical in shaping the future of nursing practice and health care,” she said. She admits that while the nursing profession is a secure and stable job, it has its fair share of responsibilities such as a continuing education.“Knowledge grows exponentially, especially in science, health, and medicine. Every health professional has a moral obligation to maintain a level of knowledge and skills to assume safe, competent, and effective care for others. Nurses need to keep abreast of the trends and issues beyond the biomedical sciences undergirding their practice.” Teaching mentorship is equally essential. “Most role modeling occurs spontaneously in unplanned situations. While planned mentoring activities are valuable, what one does, speaks louder than one’s words. Our decisions and behaviors demonstrate the implicit nuances in nursing practice that neophytes observe in action.” Dr. Dula has mentored several individuals including psychiatric nurse Darlene Dingalen Borromeo. “I first met Darlene as a budding member of the Philippine Nurses Association of NJ. In the controversy that involved her run for the presidency, which she won, I made a stand to safeguard the election process that affirmed her election to the position,” she recalled. “My role as Darlene’s mentor has been largely informal and insidious that grew out of our mutual involvement in the Philippine Nurses Association of NJ and her participation in many of the scholarly programs I conducted. Our casual, personal conversations during our professional encounters have made a difference in her own growth—not because I intended to influence her but because of her own positive identification with me as a role model.” A native of Dumalag, Capiz, Dr. Dula first immigrated to Canada

before coming to the US as an accompanying spouse to husband Catalino Pacquiao, who was then taking his Master of Laws at New York University (NYU). As an accomplished educator, she has received numerous awards, among them is the Leininger Award. “The Leininger Award is an affirmation of my professional career and lifelong interest. Since obtaining my doctorate degree from the Social and Philosophical Foundations of Education, with a concentration in Anthropology, I’ve dedicated my work in the area of cultural diversity and transcultural nursing.” The Transcultural Nursing Society, an organization dedicated to promoting culturally competent care globally, gives the award. As an author, Dr. Dula has written many books, among them is Core Curriculum for Transcultural Nursing and Health. In early 2018, Dr. Dula is coming out with two new books Global Applications of the Guidelines for Culturally Competent Nursing Care and Social Pathways to Health Vulnerability. Asked if she’s related to boxer Manny Pacquaio? She said, “My husband’s father and Manny’s father hailed from the same small town in Cebu. Apparently, Pacquiao is a very rare name among a small group of related families. Manny, however, moved to General Santos when his parents separated but his father remained in the same town.” a u g u s t 2 0 1 7 FIL-AM WHO’S WHO 5

There was an abundance of flowers and colors throughout the day that the guests adored including the famous teal color of Tiffany + Co that everyone got as favors. Mr. and Mrs. Araneta topped off the night with a surprise fireworks show for the guests overlooking the Long Island Sound.

udrey Hepburn once said, “Paris is always a good idea.” Personally, I couldn’t agree with her more. So few cities on earth possess the inherent sophistication and charm of Paris. It’s both old world and modern, classic and chic, and no matter the time of year, it has something unique to offer. Online, there are countless articles on where to go, what to see, and what to eat, but in a city that—like all cities—is constantly changing, where should you go if your next destination is Paris? For the Foodie The Five Things That Make You a True Parisian 1. Have an ice cream at Bertillon. It’s considered to be the best ice cream on Ile de la Cité. 2. Buy macarons from Pierre Hermé. 3. Go to Café Voltaire and spend 0.90€ for an egg mayo. (The price of this symbolic French dish has not changed since the restaurant opened in 1750.) 4. Have a pastry and hot chocolate at Angelina. 5. Have rosé along the river banks of the Seine. For the Instagrammer The 5 Photos You Need to Take 1. Take a photo of yourself on one of the Buren columns in the courtyard of the Palais Royal. 2. Get on the Paris Ferris Wheel for the views of the city. 3. Visit the Deyrolles boutique or the paleontology gallery in the Jardin des Plantes. Marvel at the signs that are all handwritten in ink. 4. Walk on the Pont des Arts. 5. Visit the Sainte Chapelle. Summer Sights • In 2013, the Berges de Seine Rive Gauche opened, a 2.3 km promenade between Musée d’Orsay and Musée du Quai Branly. There are floating gardens, live music, places to eat, and just tons to see! • Late in the summer (third weekend of September), Paris celebrates the Journées Européennes du Patrimoine, an invitation to explore France’s heritage. Places that are usually closed to visitors open such as the l’Elysée, the presidential palace. Fall Feasts Café Constant, Chef Christian Constant’s laidback restaurant is located on 139 Rue Saint-Dominique, not far from Les Cocottes and Le Violin d’Ingres, two other Parisian restaurants by Constant, the latter with a Michelin star. A Parisian won’t wait in line for a table, and instead head straight to the counter. You may spot a famous food critic or another famous chef if you keep an eye out for those sitting alone. Where in Winter • Walk down the Champs-Elysées and revel in the Christmas lights. There’s also a huge Christmas tree in the Galeries Lafayette, which is perfect for those travelling with kids. • Don’t forget to go to a cheese seller and buy raclette! Spring Style • Spring or not, buy some bread from Lalos, the boulangerie owned by Fréderic Lalos, a Meilleur Ouvrier de France Boulanger, the highest title in the food industry. • Sit on the green chairs of the Jardin du Luxembourg and read the book you bought from Galignani, Paris’ oldest FrenchEnglish bookstore. These set of listicles were co-written with French-Filipina Gwennaelle Ruais, who has been living in Paris for over five years. She and the author have been friends since childhood.

Darlene Dilangalen-Borromeo Nurturing Compassion — Purpose Over Pedigree By Maricar CP Hampton

W

hat would hospitals, schools, or battlefields be without nurses? They are on the frontline of patient safety and comfort; they are the heart and soul of healthcare. Darlene Dilangalen-Borromeo is a nursing veteran in Psychiatry. She describes nursing as both “art and science.” “[It’s also] caring and knowing the ‘whys’ of the care that’s delivered. It’s the profession that will make life ‘better’ as the need for nurses extends to all developed countries,” Darlene said. Despite the frequent risk of exhaustion, the high-stress situations, and long shifts, nurses like Darlene seem to find time to go above and beyond for patients every day. “I’m a nurse and if I make a difference in someone’s life that’s the most important. I just focus on what I’ve achieved and what I can offer. We’re all given an opportunity to do well.”

She believes the nursing profession is more than just having a compassionate heart. “Anyone who chooses nursing as their profession must have an innate passion to care. But caring and compassion are not enough; you need to take on the challenges of understanding the pathophysiology of the diseases you’re dealing with and the body’s response to treatment and many other issues, while working hand in hand with other professionals.” Darlene, who hails from Lagao, General Santos City, loves being a psychiatric nurse. She has even specialized in mental health and gerontology. “It’s innate in me that I want to feel the emotions,” she stressed, “When your body is medically ill, [then] comes depression, anxiety. You cannot separate mental health and physical illness; they’re together—the mind and body are together.” With more than 30 years of professional experience, Darlene takes pride in what she does. “Whatever project I do or whatever I’m involved in, it’s still about my being a nurse.


I’m a nurse first before I became a wife before I became a mother. But all of these come together to define who I am.” Her career has spanned from assisted living centers to psychiatric acute care to long term care. She has led many employees and departments and she always surrounds herself with a team that is dedicated and caring. “My staff is the most compassionate people because you really have to have the intellect but also the heart for the job and the patient, she told Fil- Am Who’s Who. “ Growing up, being a nurse was the farthest thing on her mind. “I really wanted to become a doctor. It took me two years to make a decision that nursing was for me and I did not regret [it] one bit. I was 17 years old,” she recalled.

Technically, she is a princess or bai, but she does not use the royal title. “The reason I don’t use that [princess title] is because of the influence of my Christian mother. A pedigree is nice, but a title is just words. We were taught to be respectful and treat everyone with decency and compassion,” she said. It was in 1980, at the age of 23, when she first set foot on U.S. soil. Since then, she has counted it a privilege to be able to continuously hone her skills as a registered nurse (RN). “I was petitioned to work at Lincoln Park Nursing Home in New Jersey. I was one of its second batch of nurses. I worked there for two years before moving to Saint Joseph Hospital.” An alumna of Marian College, now General Emilio Aguinaldo University, a well-known nursing school in the Philippines, she believes seasoned nurses should mentor the next generation. “I was once a novice, but someone gave me a chance to learn and be mentored.” The eldest of five siblings, she considers education as a key factor in keeping up with the fast changing times. “Nursing involves a continuous process of learning. Our world changes, technology advances, and new diseases are discovered. You must be innovative and be at the cutting edge,” she explained.“You have to always be on your toes on the latest in computerization, the use of high-tech equipment at the bedside. RNs who are now practicing as nurse practitioners have the ability to prescribe. RNs with a doctorate degree in nursing and nurse scientists do research and much more.”

As a community leader, Darlene has received numerous awards. But the one award that stands out is the N.J. Governor’s Nursing Merit Award in 2001. “I made history by becoming the first Filipino nurse to receive the award. Later on, I was appointed and became a member of the merit award.” Darlene is a constant figure at the N.J. State Nurses Association, Philippine Nurses Association of N.J., PAFCOM, N.J. American Psychiatric Nurses Association, Fiesta In America, Empowerment Awards, and Saint Jude Parish. She admits she has lived a very fulfilling life. “I’m at a point where I’m satisfied and giving back is the next step.” She now supports different causes in the Philippines. She has coordinated and helped fund a nursing organization to hone student nurses to be nurse leaders. She is also a major donor for the Teacher’s Memorial and Alumni Garden at Lagao Central Elementary School in General Santos City, a school she attended. Her life in America, she observes is all about “ work, work, and work. ” “The opportunity to live a high standard of living in America is to do the work. A colleague of mine told me many years ago that Filipino nurses go through some ‘hierarchy of needs coming to America,’” she said. Aside from her profession, Darlene is also proud of her heritage. She was born to a Maguindanao father, Dimaodtang Dilangalen of Midsayap, Cotabato, who was both a lawyer and a Datu (prince), and a Christian Ilongga mother, Esther Perales. “Mindanao is an island that was never conquered by the Spaniards, so they were able to retain their culture. Mindanao has several tribes. I’m from Maguindanao and Cotabato is the province. Each and every tribe has a lineage to royalty. My father was a Datu, a prince, and was married to a Christian, who is considered a commoner.” Technically, she is a princess or bai, but she does not use the royal title.“The reason I don’t use that [princess title] is because of the influence of my Christian mother. A pedigree is nice, but a title is just words. We were taught to be respectful and treat everyone with decency and compassion,” she said. Happily married for 35 years to financier Jesus “Bong” Borromeo and mother to Jonathan Borromeo, Jade Borromeo- Flinn, and Juanito “Timmy” Borromeo, Darlene loves to travel and spend quality time with her friends and family. Full of gratitude, Darlene declared, “I love being a nurse, I love being a wife, and I love being a mother. Life is great--let’s put it that way!”
