I have an scheduled final deliberation sa isang public hospital next week. Problem is may work po ako that day and since hindi pa ako nag 1month sa work ko ngayon, di ako pwede mag file ng leave. Hindi ko alam if worth it ba na mag file nalang ng Emergency or Sick Leave on the day of the deliberation para maka attend. Please help.

Kakahire ko palang po last july and ngayong first week august ang start date ko. May very important appointment po ako next week na need ko talaga mapuntahan since months before na po yun na pa appointment and ngayon lang nabigay sched. Gusto ko sana makipag swap ng off ko sa colleague ko but nag request off din siya that day kasi may appointment din siya. So ang last resort ko ay mag file ng Emergency Leave and mag send ng msg few hrs before my shift since malabo na pumayag ang visor ko na two kaming off same day.

Sa totoo lang natatakot ako... 🥹 pero for the sake of my oral health need ko to gawin since matagal na ko na gusto ipa check third molar ko. I just feel so bad about it... Naisip ko na what if masamain ng supervisor ko or anything.

Currently working as an ophthalmic nurse, di pa ako matagal. I accepted the job in hopes to internally transfer to other areas like the ward or ER. Nahihiya po kasi ako mag ask sa HR or sa manager since di pa ako matagal. Pero I want to know po sa iba, ano naging process para magka idea po ako.

Given how hard it is to enter LEFORA, I will share nalang po their ban list. Being banned in Lefora means those agencies/recruiters cannot recruit, refer or promote their agencies sa group and that they probably have issues or red flags as noted by the memebers of the group to justify the ban.

Reminder lang po na you still have the freedom to pursue the agencies above but make sure to do a proper research about them before engaging in any transactions. Also, I personally dont know what their issues are so even if you ask me, di ko din alam or masasagot

So please take this list only as a guide, not a bible.

Bedside Nursing is a fulfilling but a very physically exhausting job. Honestly, I dont want to spend my entire nursing career sa bedside. But career shifts midway is kinda risky. Ask ko lang po to nurses na nasa 40s and 50s na, did you move to administrative positions or switched career pero related pa din sa nursing?

I am still young but I want to map out my expectations maaga palang. I want to work abroad as a nurse, but I dont really want to work in the bedside forever. So right now, I am trying to find alternative roles na pwede ko ipursue in the future.

Hi, I am a nurse. I've been applying to a lot hospitals for the past 5 months and the progress is really slow, especially sa public hospitals. I am in my interview phase for most of the public hospitals I applied to but recently, a private hospital contacted me for an interview and I passed.

They offered me a job pero it's not a bedside role. I really want a bedside role, so even if I really want a job right now to ease my feeling of uselessness, I keep thinking about that the job is not really what I want to do. I am now stuck between accepting it vs to decline and wait for my application at other hospitals (despite no reassurance that I'd get accepted). Some people said just resign when you get an offer from the public hospital but I am a bit scared of getting my track recored tainted.

Hello po nurses! I've been applying to many hospitals mostly public and though may progress naman, medyo mabagal lang. Nasa interview phase na ako ng mga inapplyan ko sa public hospital pero today I got a job offer from a private hospital malapit saamin. It's not a bedside nurse position, but sa clinic nila sa loob. Okay naman yung pay and benefits, standard for a private hospital.

Ang dilemma ko lang is should I accept it kahit na gusto ko talaga ang bedside and kahit may ongoing application ako sa public hospitals?

Hypothetical scenario lang. Nag apply ako both private and public and no offers pa now. Pero naisip ko what if may mag offer saakin na private hospital ng nonbedside role, i-accept ko ba yung offer kahit na I'm actively pursuing employment sa public hospital?

Sabi ng pinsan ko, sayang daw yung effort ng HR if magresign just to jump ship and that I shouldn't have accepted the offer if di naman pala ako magtatagal (e.g resigned during probi) And tbh, thinking about it medyo nakaka guilty siyang gawin, but then again I'm a person with bills to pay. Staying unemployed while waiting for my offer sa public is not doing me good financially. It's like my morality and practicality is fighting.

I just cant help but think about it...

Haha ilang buwan na ako nagpopost na pagod na ako mag apply. Kailan kaya ako magpopost na pagod ako sa work? Yung nanay ko palaging nagsesend saakin posts ng mga hiring alam ko naman na it's her way of helping pero nakaka pressure tlaga minsan. Pumasok na once sa isip ko na huwag nalang mag trabaho. Tambay nalang hahahaha.

Lord please.

May nakita ako sa facebook na may email na daw siya for interview sa jose reyes. may iba po ba dito na naka receive na ng email?

Two hospitals (both public) are asking for a psych exam. Yung isa dapat sa hospital lang nila and the other was any clinic na DOH accredited. The problem is mahal po kasi ang price ng psych exam... may alam po kayo na affordable within manila lang?

So I applied as project site sa nurse sa isang company. It's a project based offer and ito po laman ng JO nila.

- 25k salary

- 48 days/week (plus paid OT )

- Benefits include 5 days SIL upon 1 year since hiring date

The site is in Las Pinas kaya I declined at first since super layo. They said may staff house sila but I still didnt accept because ayoko umalis sa bahay and mag commit to living away from home. They offered me na sa Pasig nalang daw which is 1 jeep away (mga 20-30 ang pamasahe) one way.

Di ko talaga feel na tanggapin because 6 days work feels like wala na akong masyado pahinga hahaha. need ko din kumuha ng training since required siya But I feel bad about turning another offer down because it just not what I'm looking for...

Sa hirap makahanap ng work ngayon, parang ang kapal ko pa na mag decline ng job offer sa mga naapplyan ko. Kaso gustohin ko mang i-accept it's either super layo ng place of assignment (yung sinabi sa interview and yung nasa JO mag iba shook ako) tapos yung isa ang bigat sa feeling nung nag interview ako. Both are non hospital job.

Siguro ang babaw ko as a person. Im thankful na may mga natatanggap akong offer pero I feel guilty declining them because di pasok sa criteria ko. Minsan iniisip ko na dapat tanggapin ko nalang pero labag talaga sa puso and isip ko :") I just wish na sana makatanggap na ako ng offer sa mga hospitals na pinag applyan ko because I really want to be at the bedside.

Passed the NLE last year and until now wala pa ding work. Hospitals in the Metro are mostly for pooling. If may open man, nasa provinces na. Yung mga public hospital naman palakasan talaga ang nagdadala. If wala ka kakilala, good luck nalang if may email back sayo. Yung ibang national hospitals super bagal ng process and andami mo pang kalaban since tig 5 vacancies lang pinopost. The worst is, kahit makarating ka sa final phase ng process, regret letter pa din ang darating sayo.

Nakakapagod na mag apply para lang sa wala. Minsan iniisip ko na sana di nalang ako nag nursing. I try to be positive everyday, pero nakakapagod din pala maging optimistic. Parang binobola ko lang yung utak na patience is virtue, na good things takes time to arrive. Anytime parang mag crumble na yung pangloloko na ginagawa ko sa sarili ko. Araw araw ko nalang iniisip na kailan kayo ako magkaka work? Sa totoo lang aside sa wala akong pera, miss ko na din mag work sa hospital. Nakaka miss din yung fulfillment pag natutulungan mo pasyente mo. Ang wish ko lang ay sana before 2026 ends mahire na ako sa isang hospital para masabi ko na deserve ko umuwi ng probinsya para ipakita ang mukha ko sa nanay ko na walang pagod na sumusuporta saakin ngayon kahit wala akong trabaho na stable.

Let's say 3 months palang ako sa work but I want to resign na cuz natanggap na gusto kong work, may babayaran ba na fee or something?

Hello! May mga nurses po ba dito na nag NP screening na sa NCMH? What to expect po sa screening na yun?
