  1. Why are you more concerned on their areas of specialization? I’m sure all of these candidates are more than qualified to be nominated. Kudos to my former Dean and previous member of the board, Dr. Florence Cawaon.

  2. With all of God’s powerful blessings to whoever makes it to the new line up of BoN… and as for me I thank the nursing communities in the Philippines and overseas who have been very supportive because many people do not realize how awesome the BoN’s responsibilities are… far from just prestige but the opportunity to make things better for the Filipino Nurses here and all over the world… and the people nurses are meant to serve. GOD BLESS PHILIPPINE NURSING.

  3. First of all, no political intervention.
    Repetohin ng mga politiko ang honest and fair decisions ng mga mapipiling miembro ng Board.

    Sana mareveal din o malaman kung sinong sanay na sa computer…at copy and paste na lang ang ginagawang exams from foreign books – huwag sila masali sa Board.

    Huwag din yong Green Card holders.

    Dapat alamin at seguradohin nilang pareho ang natuturo sa lahat na Nursing Schools para patas ang laban.

    Ang content ng exam dapat entry level performance na pinapaexperience sa students during internship at hindi ‘yong pang super specialized nursing practice or very high degree of experience ang kailangan para makapagbigay ng tamang sagot kasi nga student graduates pa lang sila.

    Bakit sinali ‘yong nursing entrepreneurship? Magnenegosyo ba ang bagong tanggapin sa trabaho na nurse?

    Tsaka huwag ‘yong bago pa lang tina-try na mga procedures or advanced methods sa ibang bansa o top hospitals ng Pilipinas at ito ay tinuturo pa lang sa few schools sa Metro Manila.

    Maraming salamat po.

  4. additional po:

    Sana po masali ang nakabase sa Visayas and Mindanao kasi alam po nila kong ano ang sitwasyon dun. Hindi ‘yong graduate nga sa Visayas Mindanao pero out of touch naman sa realities ng said areas dahil naka-base na sa Luzon or Metro Manila for 15-20 years.

    Thank you very much.
