Here in Philippines, the nursing population is now growing. But the question is, is there really a competent nurse in our hospital now a days.? The “old” nurses right now is going abroad to get a higher opportunity and to get a higher income, despite of the fact that they left their own families and their love ones for the sake of a higher income abroad.

This maybe due to our government that can not pay a proper salary for a professional nurses. Thus, there is a less competent nurse in our country right now. And we left for a fresh professional nurses that is novice for a certain profession. It is good to hear that the population of the nurses is growing but who is responsible to train and supervise this novice.

This days as we know there is a lot of nursing schools who has an open door for those individual who willing to take up nursing. And at the end there is a lot of student nurse, that the faculty cannot accommodate them and because of this the proper training of this student nurse were not properly implemented. Thus, they are lack of skills, knowledge and attitude that is needed when they are expose to a ward or in their hospital rotation, even in the community exposure.

Now as a fresh board passer of a certain profession we need to attend a lot of seminars and trainings to be good and some what we called ourselves as a good nurse rather a competent one.

And that issue is really exist in our society right now. Because of the reason, that there is lot of opportunity abroad that could bring this nurses or the future nurses to a better life, not only for them but also for their love ones.
