Hi tomcam, Congrats on passing nursing school. Now it's time to consolidate the last few years of tears, frustration and sacrificing sleep, for one last push to passing the NLE. I think you first have to decide what type of learning best describes yo...

Ranking the applicants through their board ratings is just one tool the managers use to help thin out the list. They do they same thing in the US. I was asked to supply my transcripts, since the NCLEX doesn't have a board ratings, with my application...

It's great that your agency has this program. I would really look into the fine print and make sure you are not charged a huge cancellation fee if you, the hiring company, the US govt, or the agency could not place you. Don't get me wrong, I'm all f...

fyi - to all rns thinking about canada. i hold no interest in whichever country you will choose to work. but i do believe in making an informed decision. good luck to you all. ----------------------------------------------------- pinoy nurses: canad...

Please keep the racial overtones to a minimum. I, just like you, can read and write and can come to my own conclusions. Where did I say or even imply "US will be hiring an endless supply of foreign nurses"? How? The US has known about th...

So I don't reinvent the wheel. I'll just direct you to a huge thread concerning Australia. You will find people who have actually gone through the process and can give you a 1st hand account of their struggle to get to there. I hope you keep us poste...

first point: i'm afraid you might not have a full grasp of how bonds function. the u.s. puts out bonds for individuals/corporations/countries to buy to keep the economy churning - to say the least. if let's say china buys those bonds from the u.s. th...

Hi sheenahRN, Your goal is to stay in the nursing field you may have to look outside the Philippines. Please look at the other threads concerning other countries for insight. The countries that stand out are Australia and Saudi. From what I gathere...

It's good you passed your first course in biology. You will be one step ahead of the non-science majors. Take a look at the schools listed here. They all offer the similar package of finishing your program in an accelerated format. I'm bias toward...

Hi dorkyalmonds, There is a thread you can look at below. It has the information you requested as well as opinions of schools. Good luck in your choice and your career. https://allnurses.com/forums/f235/good-nursing-school-philippines-151626.html

This looks like a simple problem of supply and demand. Only a few areas are saturated with too many nurses. Ex. Northern CA and north eastern part of the states. So there is a clear demand for more RNs. The problem is there are not enough teache...

just wanted to add the definition to what is the "age of majority" it's now considered 18 years old. as a result of too many hours studying for the nle (which by the way had only 1 question about ra's) ..... republic act no. 6809 . an act lowering...

markEmark, The board will look at your application after you pass because it will need to be paired up with your criminal background check from the Federal/state bureaus. Beyond the BRN noting that you passed the exam and that you are not a criminal,...

Victimized? You make it sound like people intentionally mislead others into applying with a list of "wrong" requirements. I don't think that was anyone's motive. This is a forum to exchange ideas and information. People talk about what they experienc...

Hey! I was just wondering if the provincial hospitals can be an alternative to volunteering. I know that some have gone that route. I doubt their small salary would even cover your monthly expenses, but it beats volunteering where all of your money ...

i'm also interested if anyone has a chance to get some more info please share it here. thank you. fatima advanced skills training center (fatima training center) we do not permit the posting of all of the contact information for the centers like thi...

:shbdy: happy birthday suzanne!!! thank you for your continued support and expertise through this maze we call nursing.

Dave787, she's right. The government is just keeping the status quo. They seem to be doing the least amount of work to show the public that they are supposedly working for the people. These pacts they pledge with ASEAN are a call for caregivers and n...

Actually foreign nurses are allowed to practice in the Philippines. Sec. 21. Practice Through Special/Temporary Permit.-A special/temporary permit may be issued by the Board to the following persons subject to the approval of the Commission and up...

The Philippines has found a way to keep nurses here. They have put into law the minimum salary that nurses who work for the public govt are to be paid of no less than salary grade 15. Which is around 16,000 pesos/month. This is a decent wage for a ne...

So you've seen incompetence from 1 person or maybe even a handful of people and now you want to change the NCLEX to include a skills exam. Hold on now, sounds a little drastic. It sounds more like a training problem within your organization. Hospital...

hello everyone, i just have to get a realistic feeling about the wait time to get the eligibility letter for ca nclex. i followed up with ca and received an email saying it will take 12 to 20 weeks to process my application. the other day marked 8 ...

Yes. As of January 2008, taking the exam (NLE) in the Philippines will not just make things easier, but moreso, mandatory. Let me try to explain why. There is this confusion about foreign graduate requirements to sit for the NCLEX. The requirement ...
