  1. Why won't they do that? because they already do it and make the nurses just work harder. The change has to take place with Pinoy nurses moving as one group to vote out the old corrupt politicians that...
  2. As someone else mentioned, if you are originally from the municipalities or rural areas mentioned then you can apply. I have heard of some nurses applying who have family in those areas and using the...
  3. I'm curious as to why this matters. NCLEX is the same exam no matter where you take it or which state you are getting licensure
  4. PHP 8,000 is average income for a nurse already. The other thing is that you have to be younger than 3o or 35 from what I read. So it looks like even the government is discriminatory in hiring.
  5. I have to reiterate your point. There is a guy I know here in the Philippines who operates a business whose client base is mostly nurses. He is a Doctor of Business. He worked for many years to...
  6. Sheer arrogance. What about Doctors of Business, Accounting, History, Language, Physics, etc... Do they no longer deserve to be called Doctor? It is pure arrogance at the hands of this MD who wishes...

    There is also another review center that is pretty high quality, Allgen review is in one of Rachell Allen's old locations. They have a US certified program and all former practicing USRNs as...
  8. Why U.S.?? when there are others...

    I love how you guys in the USA accuse me of being misinformed when I tell you things going on here in the Philippines that you don't want to hear. I'm telling you things that I hear with my own ears...
  9. Why U.S.?? when there are others...

    Go ahead. Apply to those sites. Did you know that many places post job listings on those sites that do not exist just to get database information? Did you know that a hospital with ONE open position...
  10. Volunteer Nurses: Counted as a Work Experience?

    The last time I saw one like that (not for NZ) i investigated and discovered that they were schlepping volunteer nurses into caregiver positions in nursing homes which may pay poorly or well depending...
  11. Volunteer Nurses: Counted as a Work Experience?

    1) Practice your interview skills. I've interviewed dozens of people for various job positions here in the Philippines and I can tell you that there is obviously no instruction going on at public...
  12. Why U.S.?? when there are others...

    Nobody is saying that a Filipina cannot or should not marry an American. I'm an American married to a Filipina after all. What we are saying is that your recommendations are dangerously close to...
  13. Freaky Things

    I've heard a lot of stories like this and I can only guess that it is the angel of Death that they see. At the same time, I have witnessed others who are fully prepared for death and relax into it....
  14. Why U.S.?? when there are others...

    Where are these new grads? The government officials don't see them. Suzanne, you are missing the point here; this isn't about what I see or what I want. The numbers I stated are coming from the...
  15. Why U.S.?? when there are others...

    To be fair, Obama has been in office only a month and has gotten a lot done; it takes time for packages like he has proposed to pass through the house and sentate in order to go into effect....
  16. Volunteer Nurse

    Yes, this was at a public hospital. TAP WATER?!?!?! With all the parasites that are in the water here?!?!?! OMG... At least they are not used for surgery. Sheesh. You know what? You are. The...
  17. Why U.S.?? when there are others...

    How can you say that I am incorrect and way off? The question was "Why do filipino nurses continue to think there are jobs here" The answer is simple: Filipinos continue to think there are jobs in...
  18. Questions concerning school, from Indonesia

    Indah, you need to make sure you are going to a reputable nursing school in the Philippines. Go to PRC and they can give you a breakdown of the number of students passing local board from each...
  19. I totally agree with you, the fears stated above are really ludicrous in the grand scheme of
  20. You are correct, that is the text definition. I personally know an American who was deported because he appeared on TV and was asked about a city policy and he replied that it was "kind of stupid."...
  21. Why U.S.?? when there are others...

    The fact that US Hospitals are still coming to the Philippines to headhunt and hire. The fact that US healtcare networks have increased number demands from staffing agencies operating here in the...
  22. I don't know all the attendees for the expo but the conference is really first rate. I was at the one last september and the information is really useful. The expo itself is a hodgepodge, there are...
  23. Why U.S.?? when there are others...

    Saudi Arabia is still the largest employer of OFW in the world. Nothing wrong with going there or Dubai on a contract while you are still shooting for the USA. Who knows, maybe you'll like it! I...
  24. hi anyone review in rachel allen or URC?

    All I have to say about NCLEX schools in the Philippines is: BEWARE There is NO governing body here. Many review centers have review instructors that have NOT EVEN PASSED NCLEX, let alone have any...
  25. After living here for a few years I have to say that a nurse is in a higher risk for getting killed while traveling in Metro Manila as he or she would be at risk for getting kidnapped in Mindanao....
