“We have to be clever about the healthcare manpower. Our nurses are the best. We are competing with the entire world in terms of hiring Filipino nurses,” the President said during a meeting with the Private Sector Advisory Council Healthcare Sector group at the Palace Wednesday.
In response to the President, CHED chairperson Prospero de Vera III said it is already carrying out interventions to address the shortage of nurses, which include retooling board non-passers, adopting nursing curriculum with exit credentials, redirecting non-practicing nurses and conducting exchange programs with other countries.
The Department of Health , according to Officer-in-Charge Undersecretary Rosario Vergeire, is also assessing the status of the proposed legislation on the Magna Carta for Public Health Care Workers and Philippine Nursing Act while doing a study on the standardization of salaries of nurses, doctors and healthcare workers.
