  9. Emergency Nurse Relief Act 2009- Update

    First statement is largely untrue. If it were then how is it that India, Thailand, China and now the Philippines have a large and growing medical tourism industry? Also, the negative satisfactions...

  16. Interesting article on Obama health care plan

    Actually as I recall the debates, it was clear to me that the current health care that Congress enjoys is the benchmark for what the universal health care is supposed to meet. So any talk about...

  23. Interesting article on Obama health care plan

    I've never understood why this is such a massive debate in the USA. Government controlled healthcare seems to work just fine in Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand and most of the rest of the...
  24. That is NOT true. It all depends on the individual hospital. So be prepared to have something attached with your resume to introduce the hospitals you have worked for. You should work with the...
  25. I agree, Gapuz books are great. I always suggest those as supplement to the review center programs. I only really promote the use of review centers in the Philippines because of the difference in...
