I’m a former staff nurse at Villaflor and have already resigned. Since I won’t be using my uniforms anymore, I’ve decided to sell them since na deduct naman nila to sa sahod ko

• 3 sets of nurse uniforms
• Medium size
• Good condition no issue bagong bago

Hello, I am currently reviewing for my NCLEX exam. I have 1 year of bedside nursing experience. I recently resigned from my previous job at a private hospital to look for better compensation opportunities and to focus on my NCLEX journey.

After passing the NCLEX, I am planning to explore work-from-home opportunities such as a virtual assistant role. I am considering applying to agencies like HelloRache, but I don’t have much background in BPO or virtual assistance, so I’m unsure about this career transition.

I would like to ask if there are agencies that provide opportunities for virtual assistants to work abroad, such as in the USA, or if there are companies that allow work-from-home employees to eventually migrate or be deployed outside the Philippines.

I am also considering working abroad in the future. For now, I prefer staying at home so I can take care of my parents while earning, since bedside nursing in the Philippines is very exhausting and the compensation is not sustainable.

Do you guys have known atleast agency that i can run into to help me, also i need advises guys, thank u ;>

Hi everyone! I’m looking for websites, apps, communities, or platforms where I can connect with international students. My focus is on academics, student life, and side-hustle opportunities. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Now that im preparing for my nclex full time reviewing without work, i feel like di ko kaya na hindi ko maintindihan… im starting to review this is my second week reviewing pakiramdam ko dami ko pa rin di alam despite having an experience sa bedside… i only using bootcamp sometimes i watch dr. Sharons video on youtube… im actually focusing on concepts pero nakaka drained kasi at some point after a minutes days and hours hindi ko maalala lahat and if i try to apply it when answering nakaksagod naman ako but there are times na diretsong mali or siguro disappointment?

Do you guys known a site or drive ng qbanks that i can used and practice for nclex huhu thank you

I recently started reviewing full-time after resigning from bedside nursing for a year. My goal is to finish my NCLEX journey within 3 months. This week, I’m also starting my NCLEX processing while reviewing concepts again because I tend to forget things easily.

Right now, I only have cheat sheets that my partner saved from a bootcamp, and what I’ve been doing is reading and reviewing them. I’m currently starting with Fundamentals before moving on to Med-Surg.

I consider myself a slow learner because I tend to go into too much detail when studying, which makes me slower. That’s why I really want to learn how to study smart, not just study hard.

For those who passed or are currently reviewing, what strategies helped you retain information better and avoid getting overwhelmed?

Any youtube channel reco?

Also any recommendation that i can watch lick in youtube?

Planning to apply as a Healthcare VA. Any thoughts? Since it’s my first time doing home-based work as a virtual assistant, I’m a bit nervous. I came from bedside nursing, and I’m planning to shift careers. What should I prepare for and know about being virtual?

Also, do you guys have any recommendations where there’s an agency or company that have opportunity to work abroad, specifically in the USA?

Why does reddit group removed my post regarding this

My partner will be working in Manila while I stay here in Pangasinan to prepare and review for my NCLEX. I really want to support him, trust him, and be happy for this new chapter in his life. I love him so much that I feel like I could give up everything for him 🥺

But honestly, a part of me wants to end our relationship so that he won’t feel burdened anymore, because I know for a fact that this situation will be hard for both of us, especially since it’s our first time experiencing long distance.

I don’t want to end up in a situation where I constantly check my phone, waiting for his messages. I know how busy nurses can get — I used to work bedside too, and I understand how exhausting it is. Sometimes you don’t even get the chance to touch your phone during duty. But at the same time, whenever I had even a little free time before, I would still try to check my phone just to update him.

I also know my partner well. When he’s busy or focused on something, he tends to forget everything else around him, and sometimes it makes me feel like I no longer exist. I know he probably doesn’t mean it that way, but it still hurts, and I don’t even fully understand why I feel this deeply affected.

I already told him before, when we were still starting to date, that long-distance relationships aren’t really my thing. I haven’t told him everything yet because I’m scared he might withdraw his application there because of me. I want him to grow, explore more, and experience new opportunities.

But at the same time, I can’t deny that I’m overwhelmed, exhausted, and scared of the distance. My chest feels heavy every time I think about it, and deep inside, I know I struggle with long-distance relationships. Ang daming pumapasok sa isip ko, and it’s emotionally draining me.

Sometimes I even wonder if maybe I became too emotionally dependent or too attached in ways I still don’t fully understand. Maybe that’s why this situation feels so heavy for me.

I’m tired, and I honestly don’t know what to do anymore.

Guys, I’m the type of learner who takes time when reviewing, and I really want to take the NCLEX. My plan is to process my requirements, review, and take the exam within 3 months. Can anyone give me advice on how I should start?

Do you think it’s better to begin reviewing now and focus on refreshing my concepts first while processing my application, then avail a bootcamp later on?

Ano mga best material and recourses like on youtube that could help me to this journey?

Thank you

Hi everyone, I just need some advice and insight regarding my situation.
I’ve been working as a bedside nurse for about a year now, and honestly, it’s been draining. We handle a 1:11 patient ratio during 12-hour shifts, and there are only 3 staff nurses rotating in our area. The workload is overwhelming, and the salary doesn’t match the effort and stress we put in.
Because of this, I already filed my resignation and I’m currently rendering. My last day is supposed to be May 25, and I’ve already mentally committed to finishing until then.
However, something happened that’s making me reconsider everything.
One of my close charge nurses told me that a coworker has been talking about me behind my back—bringing up my personal life and making assumptions that I’m resigning just because I want to be with my boyfriend. She even spread stories implying that I’m being “too strict” and that my boyfriend might leave me, which is completely untrue.
My real reasons are burnout, wanting to rest, and preparing for NCLEX. That’s it.
What makes it worse is that this coworker is an old schoolmate, and apparently her friends used to like my boyfriend. I don’t understand why she’s acting like this or why she feels the need to spread false stories.
Now I’m conflicted. A part of me wants to understand her or just ignore it, but honestly, another part of me feels angry and wants to get back at her.
At the same time, I’m also tempted not to finish my remaining duties and just go AWOL. But I know that could affect my records, and our hospital doesn’t issue a certificate of employment if you have less than 2 years experience.
So now I’m stuck:
Should I still finish my rendering period until May 25?
Should I confront her or just let it go?
How do I deal with the anger and urge to get revenge?
Any advice or perspective would really help. Thank you.

Thank u

Hi everyone! I’m a registered nurse from the Philippines and I’m starting to seriously plan my path to working in the US. I currently have 1 year of bedside experience, and I’m preparing to take the NCLEX soon (not a USRN yet, but that’s the goal).

I just wanted to ask for advice from anyone who has gone through the process or is currently in it. I feel a bit overwhelmed with all the steps and options 😅

Some of my questions:

- What’s the “easiest” or most realistic pathway for someone in my situation?

- Should I focus on applying through agencies or direct hire?

- How long did your process take from NCLEX → deployment?

- Any tips on choosing a state (like faster processing or more opportunities)?

- What should I prepare early (documents, experience, certifications, etc.)?

Also, I have a boyfriend and we’re hoping to eventually move together. For those who had partners:

- Is it better to go ahead first and then petition them later?

- Or are there ways to process things together from the start?

I’m willing to put in the work, I just want to make sure I’m taking the right steps early on. Any advice, tips, or even your personal experience would really help me a lot 🙏

Thank you so much!!
