I can't agree with the numbers without seeing how many Filipinos are taking the exams compared to other nationalities. It'll give the reason why the numbers are that way. I find it ridiculous that I'm having this kind of discussion with a fellow Fili...

The Pharisees did not want to believe and so no amount of evidence can convince them.

Can't help but remember this post in this article. PH: World's best country in business English - Yahoo! News PhilippinesHahahaha.

The pharmacist in our hospital keeps on asking for s2 of doctors in order to dispense nalbuphine. I am just wondering if nalbuphine really requires s2 because I can't find nalbuphine in the list of drug schedules in RA 9165 (Comprehensive Dangerous D...

I agree with you regarding how different those two countries are. Though it's not entirely true that most employers in the middle east speaks english. Some can speak utilize english well but for most of the time you'll have rely on context clues.

We do almost the same precautions in our hospital but we require anyone who will enter the room to wear gowns and gloves.

Lots of Filipino nurses in the middle east and they don't even know arabic but they're doing fine. Just a thought in the language topic.

I'll try to make this my last post regarding this topic. It's been been causing me to log-in allnurses almost everyday and research about unnecessary information (like the American healthcare system). Haha. I've been searching the net for data about ...

There's a think called medical tourism in South East Asia where people from industrialized nation with no free healthcare travel to Asian countries to get healthcare at a lower cost. :) US Medical Tourism Association magazine reported that medical to...

I was answering juan's question "Huh? where did you get the idea that nurses in "America" worry if their patient can pay or not?" Please read again carefully. And my answer to that question is on my previous post. Errr...I stated enough facts for a...

Haven't watch it sadly. You are merely looking at the flaws of the subject. If you'll look at the Filipinos in general and not just as individual persons (which what you might have probably done) you'll end up agreeing with me. BTW I see no other f...

You consume resources when giving care to a patient right? Unless you don't, it matters when giving care to a patient. As much as I would love but I can't give free medications to a patient who can't pay and is not insured. Don't think of me as a col...

@rnchum I suggest you don't leave your work unless you are really sure you'll have the job. A lot of nurses volunteer but only a little few gets absorbed. Your chances are really slim and I know it sounds courageous to give it a shot but when really ...

1.Reports of uninsured Americans not receiving medical care. 2.USA as the only wealthy, industrialized nation that does not ensure that all citizens have health coverage -stated by Institute of Medicine of the National Academies of Science 3.United ...

It's seems like you don't get it. What I'm trying to point out is that among those non-native English speakers or those who do not speak English as their first language, Filipinos are among the best. That's basically all that I'm trying to say and I'...

How different are American nurses compared to UK nurses when it comes to practicing nursing? Can you give a realistic example. Apply it in a scenario or something like that. They say that nurses from countries like UK don't have to worry if their pat...

Why can't they move those call centers to other countries with low cost of manpower? I'm pretty sure Philippines and India are not the only countries with that standard of labor pay....Get it? Exactly my point!

If it really cause that much dissatisfaction I think I'll start seeing that industry collapse. Make me believe it.

Well anyway, I really can't say who speaks the best English but I used "than most" in my previous post to be on the safe side. My point for saying this is that most overseas Filipino workers would work on countries with English as their first or seco...

Sorry if you took it that way but it's true.

And life is not always that simple. Its a dream if people always do what they want. Don't get me wrong, I love nursing (well health sciences in general) my parents actually wanted me to take marine transportation or marine engineering way back before...

@Jenmesh Sorry but I didn't ask any questions. Post number 57 is my first post in this topic. That should be the case but unfortunately the world is not perfect. Also, Filipinos speak better English than most international nurses so it's just nat...

Probably the same reason why 20% of the world's seamen are Filipinos; better pay.

Call their office or check the website. I believe it's 900+ per units plus 1000+ for other fees

if that's the surplus..hmmm maybe 5-10 more years. I got a chat with a nurse who's been in practice for 30 years. She told me that it was like the exact same thing when she graduated. Nursing was very much in demand back then and a lot of students to...
