hi crafts! the nurse pharmacology program is a new thing for TMC. currently the only ones making their rounds in the units are pharmacologists. i think you guys will be starting in june. we were told about this last week. i guess you will be checking the doctor's order sheet, the kardex, the med sheet and making sure these drugs are given correctly. bec there are still a lot of things that current nurses do not know in terms of preparation that only pharmacologists are keen on. like which solution can be mixed w a certain drug, what not to give together w a particular one...etc. so for your interview, obviously you have to brush up on pharmacology. good luck!

TO anansi:

yep, i found this message a lil too late but thanks so much!

and i'm also very pleased to say that i PASSED! yay! :hpygrp:

i got the text message informing me to go back this coming monday

for briefing about requirements and medical exam.

btw, about the 6 nurses you saw, i wasn't probably one of them

as i was the fourth to be interviewed and there were 11 of us

in line. i must've been done by then, but i assume you were there that day right?

the guy who interviewed me asked about cva,

and even if i did not study much about this particular condition

i was thankful to remember quite a lot about it.

to those who are subject for FINAL interview,

i suggest they calm down and breathe deep,

it was quite a long and agonizing wait but it's all worth it.

good luck and god bless!

to julieanneRN: How long did you have to wait before they responded to your application? Did you give them your resume or did you use that computer system i've read about where you just input your name and board rating?

I called the HR department. I was told that they still accept applicants but only for manpower pooling. I'm still gonna try though, you never know :up:

TO prongs:

I waited for about one and a half weeks.

I gave them my resume and i didn't undergo that computer input system.

you might want to opt for a different institution,

that is if you want speedier results

(i dunno which institution though)

but anyway, goodluck and godbless! :up:

hey everyone,

do you think TMC will accept applicants who have no IVT yet? How about no PRC license yet? because you see, if you register in PRC provincial branches, you'll receive your license in 6-8 months!

tanx!

sorry i have to respond to your private message here as i have no idea why i currently do not have permission to send private messages. Anyway, I'm in class 2008. I would say i had a harder time with the exam compared to the two interviews. Regarding TMC, i suggest you follow up a lot and show interest in the job and see how it goes from there. I really don't know how to help you get a schedule because the HR people are in charge of that. Maybe i was just lucky. Anyway, I wish you good luck and I sincerely thank you for the kind words. I hope you achieve your goal. God bless fellow nurse. ^^v

to bettyboop09:

I think there is no harm in giving your resume, but i suggest you do that computer input system as well, that way you did two things instead of just one. I cannot guarantee anything though, as I've noticed that other threads have mentioned about TMC only accepting for manpower pooling. And in my understanding, it doesn't hold much promise. BUT! I suggest you apply in various institutions, be patient, aware and persevere as much as you can. It's the only way I know that works :) With that, I wish you good luck and god bless. ^^v
