Military nursing

World Philippines

Published

i was offered a job as a military nurse. but before that i have to survive the rigorous 8 month training!

so what do you think? should i pursue it? during the 8 month long training we are not allowed to leave the camp's premises or even allowed to have contact with the outside world no cellphones no internet. I really want to take advantage of the opportunity but, 8 months without contact with your friends and family? i think its hard. as of the moment i'm still pondering, should i take it or let it go? please give me your insights. thanks

Yes, i think so because one of the applicant was rejected when she told the civilian employee that she's wearing eyeglasses..

i dont expect nurses to have a 20/20 vision when more than half of our schooling was dedicated in reading thick books..

my cousin knows the chief nurse of a military hospital and asked me if i want to be a military nurse because he can get me in. after reading that for the 8 months training i wont have any communication to my family, my decision is final that i will not accept it! i also wear eyeglasses, i have an asthma and i weigh 180 lbs! hehehe...

hi cathybedrio! i passed the requirements last october but i dont have a hard license yet so i went back last november and then they told me that my schedule of exam would be on november 11.But after 3 weeks of waiting i found out that i failed the initial exam.Then they told me that i would have my second exam on december 10 last year.I still took the exam for the second time and luckily i passed!! And now, after several months of waiting they told me that my interview will be on last week of may or june..Its really hard because you cant even apply to any job opportunities (if any) if you're enthusiastic in this crap.Just adding more patience in waiting for the upcoming interview.This will be my first ever interview thats why im so nervous and worried especially on my english skills..
