A lot of hospitals dont require experience anymore. They have new graduate training for job applicants. They like it more if you're an mdrn because you already have the critical thinking. if you dont have a tourist visa, just look for a reputable nursing agency. Tagalog is not permitted per Terms of Service (TOS).

You are right!!!!

I understand that you are also leaving for the US to work as a nurse. What is your reason for leaving and not care for the poor patients in the government hospitals? That could also be the reason of doctors leaving for US too. Dont assume that all people leaving our country (Philippines)arent worried about the poor people too. They just decided to make their lives better (regardless of their profession). Its your countrymen or your own family. Who would you choose? I know a lot of people who left are coming back to help their countrymen. Dont think that you are the only one concerned about our own countrymen. A lot of people will be offended reading this. You dont know the reasons of the people who left our country.

Yousev, u havent been exposed to the living conditons in the Philippines i think. If you are a doctor and u cant evben buy your own car, you cant even help your own family and you are having a hard time providing for your own family, wouldnt you think of a way to help yourself too? And it is not right to increase the level of difficulty of the nursing board exam just because they know that doctors are taking the exam too and they are dismayed because the doctors are the topnotchers. They should make an exam fit for nurses regardless of who are taking the exam. If anyone passed the exam for nurses then they are fit to be nurses regardless of their previous profession. And i dont think the doctors took nursing courses because they want to compete with the regular students like you. They took it for their own reasons, to leave the country, work as foreign nurses. You are probably the one who felt you have to compete with them.
