mam, may i ask if u can elaborate further on ur opinion?

what i mean, is that even a small negative issue among filipino nurses abroad would mean a catastrophic widespdread of negative effect/image to us...

it's faster than a multiplying bacteria... genarates criticism globally...

wla nman unta labot ang hospital f break time sa mga employees sa? labi na if ang nagkuyog pulos pinoy then mag storya ug bisaya or tagalog.. if nag imposed cla ug in-house law nga English jud ang storya bisan asa nga sook sa building then kutob ra sa working hours wla na labot ang breaktime or kung naa na sa gawas sa hospital.. ang g protect man sd gud anang mga hospital ngano dli ta pa storyaon ug bisaya/tagalog ky ang mga pasyente man sd d ba? kasuway jud ko ana one time ng storya mi sa usa ka nurse nga bisaya sd ang amu topic c charice so mao to bibo kaau mi the next thing we know ga yawyaw ang pasyente nga duol sa station ky nag to-o c manang nga nanglibak mi nya ky dli dw cya kasabot sa amu language..

ako, when i was working sa hospital before usahay mapakapinan ang report after sa shift ug bisaya depending kung unsa na pinoy nurse ang musalo sa ako patient load. pero hinay ra man pod and not infront or too obvious sa patients na side. but when the hospital sent a memo to all regarding sa national language of international qualified employees...didto tapos ang maliligayang araw namo tanan pinoy. but sa work time ra man pod. kung mo ingon ang uban, guilty as charge ko...well, at least wa man pod ko gipatay na pasyente pa!

ambot ani nila oi na lupig pa pod pinoy sometimes na huna-hunaon dayon na nanglibak ta permi! kung naa gani lain na taw but i have to talk in my language ky mo excuse man ko ug ako birahon sa corner or sa conference ako kauban if needed gyud.

naa pa man pod koy pamatasan hinoon...

ah...ok. pardon me if i have to clarify. i just dont want to presume meaning to a statement not clear to me even though i got a slight idea of wat one is trying to imply.

i think, i wud not totally agree to this coz i believe we are no different to other countries in the world. i wud rather say it wud depend on the situation. i wud like to site ex. ang pinoy mudaot sa ubang lahi ug nakita sad ni nako dri. anha sa work area, grabe ang politics ug naa sad ni sa ato. kung libakera sila puti or itom way mapili ky naa pod ni sa atong lahi.

pero kato hinoon cheating scam sa CGFNS (2006) ug sa PT (2008?), kanang amahan nagpatay sa iyang 17yrs son by shooting him 7 times, kanang sexual molestation sa patient na pinoy ang nihimo, etc.....sure gyud ko na negative and effect ani sa image nato pinoy. pero di man pod nila ma generalized ang whole population ky mugawas na against sa ila laws.

Istoryans,

Everyone knows that USA is not out of the woods yet regarding this severe recession ever...all professional fields are affected already.

However, one would think the medical field will always be stable since it is inevitable for one not to get sick. by then people in this field will be spared from being affected with the economic status.

But take time to read this news from Balitang America regarding this certain issue and try to decipher if it is really the status of the economy that is dictating on the mgt. decision not to hire filipino nurses anymore in their hospital.

i totally forgot to include the link kung asa usa sa ako friend (Hachelle used to work with Sinai the facility where i worked before) was in this similar situation too. here it is:

sis, basin tungod ni kay daghan US-educated nurses nga nangita pud trabaho. Maybe gusto nila unahon sa ug hire ang US-educated nurses kaysa foreign educated? If an HR person is looking at two resumes that are almost identical, except one is US educated and the other is foreign educated, the HR person might lean towards the US educated one.
