sorry but systems here in PHIL are "Very" much diff. in other countries. If you have trainings and seminars, a better chance you have getting a slot in hospitals. Knowing someone in a position (doctor,admin,owner) of a hospitals is also a factor.

I don't see anything wrong with trying to improve someone's skill and knowledge. By the way, it is also called "continouing education."

Sorry, but I am very aware as to what is going on in your country, probably much more so than many of you that are actually there.

It still does not make me change what I have stated and will continue to state. Taking a class to learn how to start IVs does not give one the skills to use at work and on your patients. If one does not have patients, then there is going to be no place to keep up your skills and this is what the problem is. It is not something that is seen one day and then you are expert at it, and most patients coming into hospitals are sick and dehydrated and then it becomes a much more difficult challenge in starting one.

Either a facility is going to hire you, whether because you know someone or not; but having these courses will not benefit you truly if you take the time to think about it and if the facility wants you to have the traning, they will pay for it once you are hired and their employee.

These trainings and seminars are really quite useless in the scheme of things in your country as well as most others like this. The only one that is benefiting is the company or person that puts them on, not the student or the nurse.

Big question for all of you:

If you are not practising and therefore will not be able to keep up with your skills, why would you wish to take a course like this now before you get hired?

Does not make any sense to me at all.

We have an old saying here: If you do not use it, you lose it.

Yeah, it's pretty useless if you just end up getting a job not related to nursing which many does.

Specializes in Medical- Surgical.
Martinez Hospital in Maypajo, Caloocan is also offering regular IVT trainings (accredited by ANSAP). Slots get filled up so you have to sign up on their list. They will send you an SMS for the schedules available and payment of a P500 reservation fee.

Hi. To those who went training in Martinez Hospital, do you had your return demos and not only lecture/seminar? Was it good? Based on your experience, how long did it take your case completion on their facility? Can I collect cases besides in their own hospital? Replies are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I am currently doing volunteer work in one of the so called reputable hospitals here in the Philippines, and from what I've gathered, some newly hired nurses, if not most, have not undertaken IVT training yet. So the notion of preference over licensed IV therapist against non-licensed is not really true. Your getting a job offer will really depend on your knowledge and sad but true, how influential your "backer" is. But of course this is only one hospital. Anyone else here have personal knowledge of hospitals who do prefer licensed IV therapists?

I just called ALL The Hospitals under ANSAP (IVT seminar) They're all fully booked until next year. Some Hospitals they're still waiting for the next schedule. Some they only train IN HOUSE staffs. They mostly go by batch so If your going "solo" like me Its really hard to find a slot :cry:

well that is still a positive thought i guess. At least you know there will be another training soon.This month they have three schedules for IVT training, hopefully the same for the month of November.Try to call PHMC everyday until someone gives you a definite date on when you can apply and pay for training, anyway they are very accommodating. And if there is already a set date,do come very very early. I lost my chance once because i thought eight in the morning is the earliest time for me to pay for my slot.I was very wrong, all slots are taken already for the two sheduled training for the month even before 8am.The next time, i came around 6am and eventually secured one.
