CHECK out Filipino Nursing Herald, a blog that seeks to empower the “Global Filipino Nurse.”
Former tech journalist Geoffrey Ramos set up this blog. As he shares in his profile:
Hundreds of Filipino nurses have gone on to build successful careers in many parts of the world. Many more are hoping to follow in their footsteps. I’m one of those people who’ve changed careers and is now trying to work out a successful career in nursing where demand is high in most parts of the world. Becoming a nurse is not the end goal of my aspirations. I’ve learned to love the work and I try to give it my best everytime. But becoming a nurse is just a stepping stone, a path I have chosen that I hope would allow me to do the things I really truly love: travel, writing and building a family.

I am presently unemployed registered nurse, graduated april 2007 and passed the board june 2007. with all these new graduates running around, what is the best option for all of us registered nurses. Hiring at hospitals are mostly on hold due to a very long back-log of applicants but not enough turn-over of nurses leaving their jobs for retirement or going abroad. I hope that there will never come a time that nurses will be under the contractual basis of hiring since there is a large number of unemployed nurses, it will not be good for the patients, the profession and all the professional nurses.
