    woknblues replied to rainbowcak3's topic in General Nursing

    surprised at the initial post, since my classes are half filled (or at least 40% filled) with guys (in Baguio). Anyway, I chose nursing for a variety of reasons, mostly as many have stated, career...

  11. US demand for Filipino nurses declining - educator

    woknblues replied to pinoy_guy's topic in Philippines

    completely and totally agree. Any valid points made in this "article" should be taken with a huge grain of salt. Fear mongering and promoting his review center. What a joke. Actually, I think review...

  12. Male nurse looks

    woknblues replied to albert6jed's topic in Men in Nursing

    no , I have short hair. I am actually suggesting that you go in to your interview in short hair. Once you get the job, just go with the flow. If they are cool, a pony tail should not be a problem. I...

    I was hoping to give away the last word, but... suzanne, if i gave an insinuation that "I know it all" in my statements, then I retract them. I hoped to emphasize that in my experience, I have seen...

  17. in search of a NURSING SCHOOL IN THE PHILIPPINES?

    woknblues replied to glazism's topic in Philippines

    First, if something doesn't need to be done "yet", by definition, it still doesn't need to be done. Being afraid that there is a chance of something happening is pretty counterproductive. If someone...

  18. in search of a NURSING SCHOOL IN THE PHILIPPINES?
