The guidelines for DOH RN Heals 4 implementation has been finalized and will be disseminated soon by the health department.

This was divulged by Nurse Alvin Cloyd Dakis, president of Alliance of Young Nurse Leaders & Advocates, International (AYNLA) and one of the stakeholders in the drafting and finalization of RN Heals 4 guidelines, in his Facebook status.

Dakis also posted the following points in the guidelines:

• The official start of all recruitment & selection processes in DOH Hospitals and RHUs will be from Oct.29 to Nov.29, 2012. Application forms can be downloaded in the DOH website (to be uploaded soon).
• All nurses participating in the training program shall start in January 2013 but shall be notified if accepted in the program in December 2012.
• Strictly no night shifts allowed under the training guidelines.
• BLS, IVT and other similar training are NOT pre-requisites in applying in the program. However, hospitals may opt to provide these training while nurses are in the RNHEALS program.
• Participants of former RNHEALS batches and Project NARS are disqualified to join Batch 4. We will be releasing a roster of all previous participants so we can check for those who have been receiving the training twice or more.
