Hi there nursing colleagues, I just want to ask about foley drainage bags. We just been recently visited by the state and they had written us up with regards to proper placement of the tube for the foley drain bag. From the statlock, will it be over ...

I dont know what the new updates now, but its true that not all are legible to get iTINs. I got mine way back yr2000 when i first visited the US. I was not a nurse back then. When i came back 2008 and took the NCLEX exam which i did pass. I used my i...

Well i guess it depends on how busy you are. But all comments here are true. If you are busy and cant handle time management it would be wise to have someone do it for you... If you are financially stable. But if you are a student, it would be wise t...

I would suggest you study all your options first. Try to attend shows such as Michael Gurfinkels when they come to the Phils. Read and study immigration updates before you make any decisions. Check which states you are planning to go to, and see what...

Yup, i used iTIN also before. After my petition came out, i sent them my SSN and finally changed it. Otherwise, you wont be able to renew your license.

I hope i can share my experience. I took my NCLEX first before i applied for CGNFS... The question is are you going here in the US as an immmigrant/Citizen? if not. CGFNS will still be needed for immigration purposes as to the need of "Visa Screen Ce...

Chances of landing a job in the hospital in the Philippines now are getting slim. But like what other people say "its a matter of who you know, not what you know anymore". . . thats the sad reality nowadays.

well the bottom line is you pass the exam ! ! ! GodBless pinoy nurses!

Really true... I passed at 75 and my friend on the otherhand failed at 75

but i think its really true that some NCLEX takers do fail at 75. I got a friend who took it at California and failed at 75. . . hes now reviewing for the 2nd take. GOd Bless us all

New England college in Quezon city? ... well i heard alot about them, i think you better check them out first. Better call CHED, schools need to be certified or accredited by this department otherwise it will be a waste of time and money.

Check out this website. http://www.examenglish.com/ The free sample questions are the same format of IELTS exam. So you dont really need to go to a review center. And besides, the IELTS British Council offers free use for thier Library and computers....

Actually, the difference between the US RN and the Philippine RN is that in US you get an associate degree within two years. But in the Philippines its a BSN and you have to go 4 years, including summers. So its a big difference. The RN internship in...

atleast youre not one of those who got so frustrated and have to undergo the process again and write those 5 sets of exams. God bless

Sometimes it all depends on the person taking the exam. . . there are alot of takers who had gone intensive reviews but failed still. So it depends on how eager you are and how much you want to pass it. Work and prayer is my best suggestion. You work...

review material is saunders all the way for me. . .review center is merge. I passed the NLE with an average of 82% and passed the NCLEX at question number 75. Merge did a good job and i learned alot from them. God Bless and hope this helps.

Well whatever path you choose will solely depend on you. May it be an architect nor a nurse. all that matters is you should love and enjoy what you do. Always keep in mind that in nursing its not just about the paycheck but the lives at stake. God Bl...

Well yes its true in the Philippines they do indeed look at the figure. But guess what. . .atleast you passed it on the first try. Furthermore, alot of students did get the same grades you did even if they did attend a comprehensive reviews and i thi...

Well they can stop offering nursing careers in schools. . . but i doubt it. They are making us thier cash cows.

I agree with you ! ! ! Thats SOOOO true!

Well i guess setting a high rating for each school should really be implimented. Yes its true that not all schools are doing well. I just hope that the supply and demand of nurses in our country will soon be solved. God Bless all filipino nurses!

I've consulted a lawyer based on that situation, what they told me was if you entered the US on a tourist visa and you were able to get sponsorship and was able to get hold of an H1B. THe best thing to do was have it converted into a green card alrea...

Very well said! . . . I salute you! Ora et Labora (Work and Prayer)

the bottom line is passing . . . moderator note please post only in english as per terms of service

Its doable. . . its just a matter of time management. Got some friends who did it. . . and they passed the exams with high grades. Good Luck and God bless
