In reply to: Mary Kay Hamm, BSN, RN 's message, "Re: nurses from the Philippines" on 20:16:28 06/17/03 Tue

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!

Can You refer RN's to me. I need 40 applicants right now. My customer will take the nurses who passed the CFGNS. They will provide assistance to pass the NCLEX. Applicants may send their resume to Rafael Reyes with the e-mail address: prosper_03@yahoo.com
