Hi everyone,

For an article that I am writing, on immigration/emigration of nurses to other nations, I would like to hear personal experiences of Filipino nurses in the US, or UK, or wherever you have gone abroad to work. I am particularly interested in:

1) why you went to work abroad

2) If you have been treated fairly, such as receiving the same pay as other nurses, or if the job was what was promised to you.

3) if you are planning on returning home.

I would greatly appreciate it if anyone wants to share his or her experiences. You can post on this board or pm me. I don't need to use your real name for the article.

Thanks!

Hello Pangit and Company

I just wanted to say hi. Nothing much going around here, aside from the rain that wont stop...Anyways, I am glad that there's alot of Filipinos writing stuff in here.

Is there anybody here that knows any nursing magnet hospital in san francisco area

(aside from UCSF med), kase I am looking for an Internship program in san francisco, that hopefully I could start in summer of 2004. Also, do you guys know of such company that trains RN for teeth laser bleaching procedures, or do I have to be trained by the Dentist for that procedure. Anyways, if you guys know of any such thing....help me out ok? thank you po.

mga 'pre ang suwerte nyo naman nandyan na kayo, nakaka-inggit naman. Dito pa ako sa pinas nagsusumikap maabot ang narating nyo. Baka puede nyo naman ibulong sa akin ang mga sekreto nyo? hanggang pangarap nalang muna ako.
