In reply to: Rose Ordinario 's message, "nurses from the Philippines" on 18:06:30 05/21/03 Wed
 I can help. I own and run a nurse staffing company and am just starting a recruitment project now for 10 nurses for a hospital on the east coast of the U.S. I need nurses with 2-3 years acute care med surg with some ICU and ventilator experience. My customer will take the nurses without the NCLEX and will help school them to pass it-really great!
Can you refer RN's to me?
Thank you for your help,
Mary Kay

There are thousands of RNs in the Philippines, but the main problem is satisfying the VisaScreen imposed by the US. While it is true that many are able to satisfy said VisaScreen, they are still a minute number compared to the 20,000 nursing school graduates that the Philippines produces every year. The major of the many reasons for not satisfying said requirement is 'financial'. Consequently, the majority of nursing graduates end up as (sad but true) 'carfegivers', domestic helps or nursing assistants in foreign countries.

What is needed is for Filipinos in the US (Nurses?) to "invest" in their "kababayans" by making "advances" for "qualified" Philippine RNs in exchange for a "management agreement". The "investor" is guaranteed to get back the investment plus a good size profit (thru direct deposit salary deduction).

Kapatirang Pilipino sa Ibayong Dagat, Inc. (www.kapatiran.org), a non-profit organization of Filipinos overseas conducts pre-qualifying examinations for nurse-applicants and recommends "scholars" to "investors". Kapatiran also oversees accredited review centers for both CGFNS, NCLEX, TOEFL/TWE, TSE, and now IELTS & TOEIC.

Let us invest in our nurse-kababayans, and make a little profit for ourselves. The PNAA may be able to help by tying up with Kapatiran on this worthwhile project.

On another move that the Kapatiran has done, which the PNAA can truly help a lot, is ---- making representation to the NCSBN to include the Philippines as a "test site" for NCLEX. In October 2002, NCSBN made a decision to authorize "test centers" outside of the US & its territories, BUT DID NOT INCLUDE THE PHILIPPINES in the initial list. (NCLEX tests may start as early as October 2004) Kapatiran has made representations citing the fact that MAJORITY of NCLEX test takers in the last 2 years were Filipino nurses and that they have to spend a lot just to take tests in Saipan and Guam.

Can we work together on this issue?

Maraming Salamat Po!

Rose and other Filipino colleague in the Nursing profession

You are deceived to believe that a recruiter will help you.

A recruiter will help you if you are worth it! Meaning you are done with your NCLEX, CGFNS, English Test that even an American born citizen has to pass.

Here are some points to ponder:
1. A recruiter can easily earn 10,000 dollars just to launch you in the hospital per head.

2. If you are worthless they dump you, a typical American dog eats dog, and I survive first before you do strategy.

3. In America don’t trust anyone. Have you been in a car dealership lately?

4. That is the reason why some recruiter will invest in your NCLEX, CGFNS, Kaplan review just to entangle with a CONTRACT. If you are attracted with sweet promises and you found a good job than what she offers, watch out! Breach of contract will haunt you down!

5. DO NOT GO INTO CONTRACT unless you know what you are doing

6. If you don’t trust an American recruiter do not trust 100x a Filipino recruiter. I bet you will be eaten up. Except for this Filipino recruiter in Florida, they are helpful to you even if you are worthless (we were students of nursing during that time). They are transparent in their business. They even guide you what to do about recruiters!

7. They will hide to you other perks that you deserve to receive as a nurse like sign in bonus, housing and food allowance, gas allowance just to survive and transplant to their locality.

Aren’t you glad to be a nurse? You are just following the law of supply and demand. Use it to your advantage because it will die down later.

Happy hunting Rose

With all these frenzy, hunting down a nurse and passing the NCLEX or CGFNS, we group of Doctors with RN degree are planning to put up a Crusade to help Filipino Nurses now in America to pass that NCLEX sanely. We hold the review for Filipinos for free as a token of appreciation to our Filipino colleagues who help us. They don’t even represent a Nursing Organization. Just like our own PMA, PNA is more of a political and a social club. As we analyze the examination, we concluded it is a fair, considerate examination compared to the examinations we encountered in our medical life as a frequent examinee from medicine down to the specialty board exams. Kudos to NCLEX!

If you will analyze the examination it is intricately interwoven with common Pathophysiology of diseases with Maslow hierarchy and Growth and Development of a person in one question. Just priorities and you will get it right! Of course you need a basic idea of microbiology, pharmacology (drugs commonly used in the US) and medical terminology.

Good Luck my fellow Nurse. We should practice our profession in real life – a CARING individual
