Nurses to the rescue in the Philippines.

On 16 July 1990 at 4:45 p.m., an earthquake rocked the Northern part of the Philippines. Lasting only 45 seconds, the seismic shock that measured 7.8 to 8 on the Richter scale created havoc and destruction in three provinces of the Luzon Island. Anita A. Karganilla, RN, and Josefina A. Tuazon, MN, report on how nurses quickly mobilized to provide direct assistance and support.
