We applaud the Philippine government’s effort to launch a new job employment and training program for the Filipino nurses that is surely win-win situation for all parties involved.
President Arroyo recently announced that about 5,000 Filipino nurses will be deployed to serve as nurses to those in needs. The target beneficiaries are the poorest municipalities which will receive at least 5 assigned Pinoy nurses each.
We said this is a win-win situation for the Filipino nurses that will be benefiting from this because the government is not only trying to give employment money (about P8,000 per month) to those in need but also give opportunities for the Pinoy nurses to train in real hospital work in preparation for the eventual work abroad. Most employers abroad require nurses to have work experience before they accept them.
But the ultimate winners are the Filipino masses who will now be taken cared of by our own nurses at least temporarily. We hope that this P500 Million project will be sustained by the government yearly as this is one of the best decision that the government has taken for the Filipino nurses.
