[NEWS, OPINION]


TUCP, CHED urges graduating High School students not to take-up 5 "oversubscribed" courses: one of which is NURSING

I feel disheartened by this article featuring the statements coming from Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP).
The problem that the Nursing Profession faces today is not new to me. I am actually experiencing it right now. But the bad thing about these statements is that it hinders high school graduates to choose freely what course they really want to take in college.
Indeed, it is correct to say that Nursing (or any of the five courses stated in the article) are somewhat or "extremely oversubscribed," but the thing is, these organizations can't tell these students to "avoid" or "stay-out" (of) the aforementioned courses.
In the case of Nursing, these statements could be of much effect especially to the Nursing Education. I think they failed to consider that having decreasing amount of nursing student (or even total absence) could lead to even more unemployment in the said profession as this could result to laying-off of many Nursing Educators.
As matter of fact, this situation is currently happening right now and these press releases could even aggravate this condition. I hope that organizations like TUCP and CHED should consider the effects like what I've stated above before "urging" the graduating High School students to avoid these professions.
And the thing is, I believe that there's still future that awaits these students in the Nursing Profession. Many developed countries are having an increasing aging/ elderly portion in their population and this either directly or indirectly means that they'll evetually need to call for other health care providers (like Nurses) coming from outside their country to provide care to these people.
It is not new to us that the Philippines is one of the top producers of  Nurses worldwide.

"Hilot" as a future career

The idea of taking up the "Hilot" / Massage Therapy course is good. It's new to me that being a "Hilot" is in demand and even high-paying right now but I also honestly think that it's a good vocational course to consider too: for as long as the student really want to take it up.

TUCP's say about the Mass-Oath-taking

Though TUCP said something bad about Nursing (telling that it is oversubscribed and even urges graduating High School not to take it in college), it is good that it is in favor about the idea of pursuing the Mass Oath-taking of the July 2011 Nursing Licensure Examination (NLE/ NLEx) passers.
I hope that the Philippine Nursing Association (PNA) and ADPCN's call to continue the aforementioned ceremonies will finally be heared and approved by the PRC-Board of Nursing as soon as possible.

No frills oath-taking for nurses

The board of nursing of the Professional Regulation Commission will start administering the nurses’ oath on September 25 but will do away with the lavish oath-taking en mass in keeping with the government’s austerity measures.


Labor department spokesman Nikon Fameronag said that all those who passed the nursing board examination can take their oath at the PRC office in Manila.


Nursing schools which prefer to conduct the mass oath-taking can do so even without officials of the nursing board or PRC. The school dean may administer the oath, he said.


PRC chairman Teresita R. Manzala earlier said the mass oath-taking was scrapped to save on government funds, but the Philippine Nurses’ Association opposed the move, saying that no government money was being spent for the ceremonies. The nurses used to fork out money to spend for the oath-taking venue, souvenir program and related expenses. Each nurse was required to pay P600 for the venue, equipment and other expenses, the nurses’ group said Vito Barcelo

Stay out of 5 college courses
Written by : ERNESTO F. HERRERA, Tuesday, September 06, 2011

THE Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP) has urged young Filipinos to stay out of heavily oversubscribed college courses if they want to increase their chances of obtaining gainful employment after graduation.


The Commission on Higher Education (CHED) has already identified at least five extremely oversubscribed programs: teacher education, nursing, business administration, information-technology, and hotel and restaurant management.


Compared to potential labor market demand, there are now far too many fresh graduates of these five courses, and large numbers of new students still going into these programs.


We’re afraid the huge oversupply of graduates of these programs has made it exceptionally difficult for them to sell their skills to employers.


Fresh high school graduates as well as college students who could still shift courses should instead consider going into science and technology as well as agriculture and fisheries—programs that have been singled out by the CHED as undersubscribed.


Students can also check the career guide section posted at the Bureau of Local Employment website at www.ble.gov.ph, which contains a series of occupational briefs or summary information about hard-to-fill and highly in-demand occupations, to aid students in planning their university courses and workers who would like to shift careers.


Even the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) has advised students and workers to consider taking health-related courses other than nursing, as this paper reported last Monday.


“With the continued glut of registered, yet, unemployed nurses, alongside with the recent developments highlighted by nurse-volunteerism in hospitals and institutions, I encourage students and workers to look at other healthcare professions if they want to get employed quickly,” said Labor Secretary Rosalinda Baldoz.


Baldoz issued the statement as the new batch of successful examinees of the July 2011 Nursing Licensure examination further increased the surplus of nurses in the country.


TUCP has been pushing for the opening of new foreign labor markets and the creation of local employment programs for the growing number of jobless Filipino nurses. It has also been pressing for the shutdown of substandard schools that it said have been defrauding nursing students and their parents.


Baldoz pointed out that there are other job opportunities in the health and wellness industry besides nursing.


“The Health and Wellness industry has been identified by DOLE’s Project Jobsfit as one of the 12 key employment generators that will provide more employment opportunities,” Baldoz said, adding that the industry has the potential for absorbing the most number of Filipino workers in the next 10 years.


The Labor chief said that other careers under the industry, such as optometry, physical therapy, pharmacy, medical technology, clinical and internal medicine, surgery, radiology, wellness massage and spa/massage therapy are occupations that are expected to propel more employment opportunities both local and overseas up to 2020.


“These kind of careers are in-demand not only in hospitals, but also in laboratories, clinics, health maintenance organizations, public health agencies, pharmaceutical firms, research institutions, scientific equipment companies, physicians’ offices, and schools offering clinical laboratory science programs. Indeed, their licenses can bring them to greater heights and greener pastures,” Baldoz said.

Allow oath-taking of new nurses, labor group urges PRC, DOLE

I urge the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) and the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) to reconsider their decision to scrap the traditional oath-taking for the 37,513 nursing graduates who passed the July licensure examination.


The TUCP supports the appeal of the Philippine Nurses Association Inc. (PNA) for the ceremony to proceed as scheduled on Sept. 25.


Nurses consider the ritual a celebration of their profession. In a way, the observance also honors parents and families who have invested in a big way in the nursing education of their children.


The PRC earlier cancelled the ceremony at the prodding of the DOLE, which cited the need to conserve public funds.


However, the PNA has countered that the government has never spent any money for the formal service to begin with.


The nurses themselves have been paying P600 each to cover the cost of the venue, equipment and other expenses, with the extra collections going to the Board of Nursing, the PNA said.

Students urged: Avoid 5 oversubscribed courses 
By Mayen Jaymalin (The Philippine Star), September 05, 2011 12:00 AM

MANILA, Philippines -  The Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP) yesterday urged students to avoid five oversubscribed college courses to increase their chances of getting employment.


TUCP secretary-general Ernesto Herrera said the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) has identified education, nursing, business administration, information technology, and hotel and restaurant management as “extremely oversubscribed” programs.


“We’re afraid the huge oversupply of graduates of these programs has made it exceptionally difficult for them to sell their skills to employers,” Herrera said.


“There are now too many fresh graduates of these five courses, and large numbers of new students still going into these programs,” he added.


Herrera said high school graduates and college students who could still shift courses should instead consider going into science and technology as well as agriculture and fisheries - programs which have been singled out by the CHED as undersubscribed.


Meanwhile, Herrera asked the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) and the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) to reconsider their decision to scrap the traditional oath-taking for the 37,513 nursing graduates who passed the July licensure examination.


He said the labor group supports the appeal of the Philippine Nurses Association Inc. for the ceremony to proceed as scheduled on Sept. 25.


“Nurses consider the ritual a celebration of their profession. In a way, the observance also honors parents and families who have invested in a big way in the nursing education of their children,” Herrera said.


The PRC earlier cancelled the oath-taking for nurses to save on government funds.

‘Hilot’ future for young Pinoys

Believe it or not, “hilot” is not a thing of the past but the future for young Filipinos.


The labor department yesterday advised students to become massage therapists, locally known as “hilot,” to easily land a job.


Labor Secretary Rosalinda Baldoz said DOLE has identified the health and wellness industry as one of the 12 key employment generators that will provide more employment opportunities in the coming years.


Baldoz said wellness massage and spa therapy were identified among the in-demand skills in the next decade.


“Massage therapists who have completed formal training programs and have passed the licensure exam are likely to have very good job opportunities,” she said.


Aside from “hilot,” other in-demand skills are optometry, physical therapy, pharmacy, medical technology, clinical and internal medicine, surgery, and radiology.


“These occupations are expected to propel more employment opportunities in the industry, both local and overseas, up to 2020,” Baldoz said.


She said the nursing graduates, who successfully passed the licensure examination last July, will increase the number of unemployed people in the country.


“With the continuous glut of registered, yet unemployed nurses, alongside the recent developments highlighted by nurse-volunteerism in hospitals and institutions, I encourage students and workers to look at other healthcare professions if they want to get employed quickly,” Baldoz said.


The labor chief said workers in the health and wellness professions have entry level salaries ranging from P8,000 to P12,000 per month but may go up to P20,000 or higher after years of experience.


Abroad, the average salary is about $6,351 per month or higher.


“These kind of careers are in-demand not only in hospitals but also in laboratories, clinics, health maintenance organizations, public health agencies, pharmaceutical firms, research institutions, scientific equipment companies, physicians’ offices, and schools offering clinical laboratory science programs. Indeed, their licenses can bring them to greater heights and greener pastures,” Baldoz added.


DOLE urged students to check the summary information of all health-related courses in the career guide section posted at the Bureau of Local Employment website at http://www.ble.gov.ph.


The career guide contains information on hard-to-fill and highly in-demand occupations to help students planning their college courses and workers who would like to shift careers.


Meanwhile, the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) called on private companies to revive and strengthen their apprenticeship programs and hire qualified trainees as part of their workforce.       


TESDA director general Joel Villanueva said there is a need to push the apprenticeship program “because it has always been proven that the best place to acquire skills is in the workplace.”


He said these training schemes not only enhance partnership between the industry and technical vocational education training providers but also ensure a steady supply of best job-fit and ready workforce.

NLE July 2011 Update#5

(Look at the bottom of this blog post for the updates!)

All who took (and suffered severe blood loss through epistaxis) in the July 2-3 Nursing Licensure Examination, like me, is now sitting tight, waiting for the tectonic, weighty results. While waiting for this, many of us are now searching for jobs and others have already been hired. (Majority in jobs not even related to nursing -- this made me write the Narsing Ngayon.)

But as of now, I want to share this update sent to me by the Licensure Division of Professional Regulation Commission - Baguio City Regional Office as a reply to my query about this matter (sent last July 5, 2011):

<Me:> Kelan po kaya lalabas yung result ng NLE July 2011?

<Reply:> We just finished the conduct of July 2-3, 2011 Nurses Licensure Examination. All reports and exam materials have been forwarded to the Central Office. We do not know as to when will the result  be released. Just keep on visiting our website in August.

Thank you.

Licensure Division

And also, for those who will take the December NLE, be reminded that the deadline of applications will be on September 16, 2011 (for Repeaters) and October 21, 2011 (for 1st Timers). Please find time to visit the PRC Official website (and official websites of Regional Offices too) for more info especially if they offer Mobile (Extension) Application Services.

ABOUT THE OATHTAKING FOR JULY 2011 BOARD PASSERS:


Yesterday afternoon, BoN Member Hon. Marco Antonio Sto. Tomas posted this note in his Official Facebook Fanpage:


TO ALL NEW PASSERS OF THE NLE
by BoN Marco Antonio C. Sto Tomas Fan Page on Monday, August 22, 2011 at 3:29pm

"In your Nursing Ethics and Professional Adjustment/Jursiprudence Lessons your school should have taught you that THERE ARE 3-FOLD REQUIREMENTS TO BE A PROFESSIONAL/RN IN THE PHILIPPINES: 1. Apply, take and PASS your Nurse Licensure Examination; 2. Take your Oath of Professional (individually or in group); and 3. Register from your Professional License. You have satisfied only no. 1 and you will need to satisfy the 2nd and 3rd requirement by adhering to the schedules to be set by PRC so keep yourselves posted in the PRC Website.

The BON has DONE AWAY with the traditionally MASS OATHTAKING in order to respond to current "economic difficulties" faced by "most" your families (cost-saving measures) and current job-scarcity among nurses. SIMPLIFYING the oathtaking is a must at this time. So YOU MAY TAKE YOUR OATH AT THE SAME TIME OF REGISTRATION with PRC.

FOR EVERYONE'S GUIDANCE. "  

As this note form a BoN Member and his Facebook Status Posts suggest, Mass Oathtaking will not be done anymore taking into consideration the current financial and economic crisis that we have. But, as he responded to one of the passer's query, "Special Group Oathtaking" may be done with proper written request from Colleges' Deans to Board of Nursing through the PRC.

As for me, the best thing to do as of the moment is to wait for an Official Statement from the BoN as a whole body. 
  
RESULT OF THE JULY 2011 IN NEWSPAPERS:
 According to a Newspaper seller, the complete list of July 2011 NLE Passers will be published and be out today, August 23, 2011. So grab your copy NOW!

UPDATE #4:

UPDATE #5:

There are still no updates regarding whether or not the "NO MASS OATHTAKING" Policy of the BON will be lifted due to lots of negative comments/ reaction about this. But there are reports that PRC Baguio will hold Oathtaking in Baguio City on September 17, 2011.


As of the moment, this statement of BON about this matter is still on effect (click the image to enlarge):
