To address the pressing Human Resource for Health shortage in the Philippines, the Private Sector Advisory Council Healthcare and Jobs Sectors, Commission on Higher Education and Department of Health have banded together to formulate innovative strategies and solutions to this issue.
After rigorous consultations and deliberations, the Nurse Workforce Complementation and Upskilling Program came into being. This transformative initiative empowers Clinical Care Associates with vital training and the chance to contribute to essential noncore functions under the mentorship of registered nurses.
“I commend the Department of Health and the Commission on Higher Education for co-creating this program with us, which institutionalizes and develops Clinical Care Associates to receive training in healthcare facilities and assume vital non-core functions. This complements the required staffing in both public and private hospitals,” said PSAC Healthcare Sector Member and MediCard Philippines President and Chief Executive Officer Dr. Nicanor Montoya.
This impressive move sets the stage for the seamless integration of these graduates into the nursing workforce, filling the gaps and guaranteeing a well-rounded and dynamic healthcare system.
