BSN 1–5 students’ community project, “Dalluyun: A Service Initiative on Floating First Aid Training and Emergency Preparedness at Sea,” received the go signal during a coordination meeting last February 13, 2026, at Barangay Catbangen, San Fernando, La Union.

The initiative aims to train coastal community members in first aid and emergency response at sea. Barangay officials expressed full support, recognizing its importance in enhancing local safety and preparedness.

This project highlights the students’ dedication to applying their nursing skills in real-world settings, empowering communities, and promoting proactive safety measures in maritime environments.

Last February 14, 2026, Batch 1 of “SENYAS: Learning the Basics of Sign Language” was successfully conducted at the Campus for Learning and Innovation. Now on its second year of implementation, the training continues to strengthen the institution’s commitment to inclusive education and community engagement under the NSTP–CWTS program.

The training featured Ms. Wendyl Navalta as the resource speaker, who guided the NSTP students through the fundamentals of sign language, including fingerspelling, basic vocabulary, and essential conversational expressions. Through her interactive sessions, participants were able to practice and apply their learning in simulated communication scenarios, enhancing their confidence in engaging with members of the Deaf and hard-of-hearing community.

As the program progresses into its second year, the initiative envisions that NSTP students will become capable and confident in communicating effectively through basic sign language. By equipping students with inclusive communication skills, the training reinforces the core NSTP principles of service, empathy, and civic responsibility.

The successful conduct of Batch 1 highlights a continued effort to cultivate socially responsive students ready to promote accessibility and inclusivity in their future community engagements.
