SKOKIE, Ill — When Cecilia Buenaflor came to Chicago aftershe left the Philippines in 1992, she was on her own. The newcomer, who hadworked at a New York hospital, did not know anyone. As a single parent, she wasstruggling to balance motherhood and the demand to earn a living, and being8,000 miles away from home didn’t help.

“Economically, I cannot survive in the Philippines justbeing a nurse,” Buenaflor said. “I have a family that I have to support.”

Working as a nurse at a senior living facility in thePhilippines, Buenaflor was paid $10 an hour. With two young daughters at homeand an extended family back in her homeland to support, it was a “tough” timefor her, she said.

“But as long as you work hard, you will be rewarded,”Buenaflor said of her philosophy.

Now, she is the president and chief executive officer ofLife Home Health Care in Skokie, an agency that provides nursing at-homeservices to patients. Her company ranks in the top 6 percent in home healthagencies in the United States and employs between 50 and 60 nurses, mostly Filipinos and many of them Skokie residents, she said.

Sitting in her corner office in the company’s building atGross Point Road and Lincoln Avenue, Buenaflor reflects on her career path,noting her father pushed her into a nursing career.

After World War II, the aspiration to achieve the Americandream became a driving force for the influx of nurses from the Philippines, aU.S. prize from the Spanish-American War in 1898 until gaining independence in1946. The Exchange Visitor Program, and later the immigration reform of 1965,enabled Filipino nurses into the U.S. to fulfill their dreams. Their successpersuaded relatives and friends to follow, starting a cycle that continuesdespite tighter economic times and immigration rules.

For many Filipino families facing economic hardship at home,a nursing degree is seen as a ticket to financial security, Buenaflor said. Outof the 21,500 foreign nurses who applied for accreditation in 2005, more thanhalf came from the Philippines, a National Council of State Boards of Nursingstudy found.
That culture of compassion translates to a favorable level of care to thepatients, said Marlyn Bermudez, another Philippine-trained nurse and a Skokieresident since 1992.

“That is really our passion that our forefathers taught us,”she said. “We learned it at home first, then we came to America.”

Bermudez, from the southern island of Mindanao, is impartingthe same lessons to her nursing staff at Living Waters Home Health Care, whichshe co-owns with two partners.

Bermudez said when she started working in a Chicago hospitalin 1991, many of her nursing colleagues were also Filipinos. Now, more than 80percent of nurses and physical therapists at her agency are Filipino.

She observed that many Filipino parents encouraged theirchildren to go into the medical field, noting, “They saw that there’s really aneed for nurses abroad.”

But long before Buenaflor and Bermudez came to the U.S., theimmigration path was already cleared for them by nurses like Lydia Schreiber, anative of Aklan in central Philippines. Schreiber came to the U.S. in 1964 aspart of the Exchange Visitor Program and worked for more than three years atthe Mayo Clinic in Minnesota.

Schreiber is one of the most senior visiting nurses at theSkokie-based Life Home Health Care. For 26 years, she worked at a Chicagocommunity facility, now called Kindred Hospital.

As a hospital nurse, Schreiber’s work assignments rangedfrom the intensive care unit to the surgery room to the chemical dependencyunit. She said she never refused any task, citing the Filipino culture ofsacrifice and hard work for her success.

Schreiber acknowledged she was among those in thePhilippines lured by the “glowing” image of America: “You are young, and yougraduated from nursing, and you think, ‘Oh boy! I must go to America!’ “

Her expectations were met especially because, “I found myhusband. I got married,” she said with a giggle in recalling meeting herhusband during her time in Minnesota.

That American dream became even more alluring, as thePhilippine economy staggered during the late 1990s and early part of thiscentury.

Encouraged by the demand and attractive jobs in the U.S.,many Philippine universities expanded their nursing programs and enrollmentskyrocketed. Even medical doctors moved into the field rather than spendadditional years as hospital residents in order to practice.

But as the number of nursing graduates has ballooned, hiringhas slowed down significantly. Due to the severe economic downturn, demand inthe U.S. and elsewhere has dropped. A very long wait to immigrate to the U.S.is also building up because of retrogression.

The U.S. National Council of State Boards of Nursingreported a mid-year drop of more than 30 percent in Filipino nurses taking theNational Council Licensure Examination. It said only 5,533 Filipino nurses tookthe test as of June, down from 8,272 in 2009.

Given those statistics and the economy, will the flow ofFilipino nurses come to a halt? Or is this just the ebb before the next wave?

Buenaflor is optimistic about the prospects for those fromher homeland. “People in the medical profession will always have a job,” shesaid.

Filipino Nurses

Today, I decided to really give Filipino nurses allthe credit they should have because of their extra ordinary skills that makes Philippines andall Filipinos around the world to be proud of them.

Nursing is quite a popular and most sought after career orcourse in the Philippines. Nursing in the Philippines careerreally exploded by numbers. So many students, youth in general really thinksand believe that this is the career and the path they should take in this kindof times.

There are so many reasons why Filipinos really want to takethe nursing path. Number one of those reasons is that this is an in demand andhigh paying nursing jobabroad.

As we all know, nursing or Filipino nurses arein demand abroad. Rich and quite populated countries like United States,Canada and some European and UAE states prefer Filipino nurses becauseof the knowledge and the good heart they are showing at their job.

According to statistics, In the United States alone, thedemand for nurses is estimated at 600,000 between now and 2020. Thisis such a huge number considering a large percentage of it will be coming from Philippines.

Also, because of this numbers and statistics, many Filipinosprefer to study here in the Philippines then later, work or apply asa nurse abroad. Also, it was also a common knowledge to all of us that somedoctors are already diving in the nursing world for them to be able to workabroad.

Quality knowledge, a good and helping heart and veryhardworking personality is what makes Filipinonurses stand out with other foreign nurses. This is a trait orpersonality that can’t be teached nor acquire through schools or by studying ina somewhat, state of the art facilities.

This is why I can say that nurses in thePhilippines is a world class professionals. They just need to be takencare of by the Philippine government for them to showcases their talent andskills here in the Philippines before going abroad.

Filipino nurses are arguably the best health care workers in the world.

As someone who has traveled to 60 countries andlived in several continents, I can attest to the character of the wonderfulFilipino people. Filipinos culturally genuinely care about people.

I have traveled to the islands of Luzon, Mindanaoand Surigao and was warmly greeted and welcomed by Filipinos in each place. Thelitmus test however was when I was serving at a local church one month during abrief visit. Upon being discouraged by the Pastor's inability to invite andwelcome new people to church, I decided to go door to door throughout theneighborhood on foot.

I was shocked and so surprised to experience thewarmth and hospitality of the Filipino community and people. Nearly every homeI visited respectfully welcomed me in and treated me like royalty, providing methe utmost hospitality, often serving refreshments and earnestly listening tomy every word. Such kindness would rarely happen in Western countries if anabsolute stranger and foreigner showed up at the door for conversation.

Filipinos however are sweet, sincere and very kindpeople. This is why Filipino nurses are notably recognized and esteemedthroughout the world, because they are professional and innately caring towardpeople.

As someone who was raised by my grandparents andcared for them in their old age, I know the intense challenges involved inhealth care and the amount of patience required when caring for the sick,elderly and terminally ill.

I also know what it is like to be sick and dying,as I had typhoid in Thailand and for a few days nobody knew what was wrong withme. Meanwhile my kidneys were shutting down, my urine was brown like Coca-Colaand my body ached with pain.

I was so angry when for a few weeks my grandmotherwas neglected in a nursing home, which she had to remain in while undergoingrehabilitation after a horrible fall that caused her to break her hip.

My Nana (grandma) had sores on her feet becauseshe was not being rotated and given opportunity to move around and keep hercirculation and blood flowing.

I believe American nursing homes are oftenunderstaffed and the workers under paid. Hence the health care is often poorand the nurses resentful toward the companies they work for.

Nevertheless tenderhearted Filipinos graciouslyhave a way to kindly look beyond these industry challenges and focus on thesuffering patients for whom they were hired to care.

For this reason I esteem, honor and admireFilipino nurses and as a world traveling motivational speaker who knows what itis like to live overseas want to offer myself to help Filipino nurses livingabroad and seeking to succeed in this world, while lovingly serving humanity.

Here is what I am willing to do for Filipino nurses:
1. Provide global property and real estateinvestment advice and help you buy your first home. 

2. Provide life and relational coaching.

3. Provide counsel regarding personal safety whenliving abroad.

4. Provide consultation for additional career andfinancial opportunities.

God bless the wonderful Filipino nurses throughoutthe world (often away from their families) to serve humanity and be a blessingto the suffering and elderly in need of goodhearted health care.

More andmore Filipino nurses are now opting to work in the United Kingdom than in theUnited States, according to local recruiters.

Citingdata from the UK Borders and Immigration Agency, recruitment leaders yesterdaysaid that the number of Filipino nurses deployed to UK in the past three yearshas already surpassed those deployed to the US in the same period.

From 2007to 2009, an annual average of 7,000 Filipino nurses flew to UK under a studyand work program that allowed them to study and work there at the same time.Data from the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA), on theother hand, showed that less than 300 registered Filipino nurses went to the USto work during the three-year period.

Recruiters noted that Filipino nurses aspiring to work in theUnited States have to wait five to seven years for H 1-B working visas andbetween two to three years for EB 3 (immigrant visas) before they can enter theUS.

Those hoping to study and work in UK can leave the countrywithin six months.

Recruitment leaders further noted that the recent expansion ofthe UK study programs may give wider opportunities to thousands more Filipinos,including non-healthcare workers.

The imposition of new rules for Tier 4 student visa applicationsearly this year may also favor Filipino nurses who want to be registered nursesand become permanent residents there.

Filipino nurses are now moving more towards the United Kingdominstead of going to United States in last few years as the immigration policiesin United Kingdom are more liberal than in United States.  The reason forthis is the study and work program provided by the British health service sincelast four years for the foreign nurses which gives them a better and widerexposure of their field.

To work for the United States, Filipinonurses have to wait till they become eligible for H1-B working visa (which wouldtake around five to seven years) and EB-3 immigrant visa before they enter US.However, in United Kingdom, one can easily get an entry via their study andwork program scheme.

Recent survey conducted by UK Borders andImmigration Agency has revealed that annually, on an average Filipino nursesapplied to work for United Kingdom has increased up to 7,000 from 2007 to 2009.

Saudi Arabia amongst all the countrieshas received the maximum number of Filipino nurses. The average number ofnurses coming to Saudi Arabia in a year is around 8,000 or more. With theintroduction of study and work program that includes practical training alongwith the study course (OJT), the number of nurses applying for UK visa hasconsiderably grown in number.

There is a great demand of Filipinonurses and caregivers in Britain as their language proficiency is quite highand meets the language standards of European countries such as Romania andPoland. Many of these nurses even apply for the permanent residency status inBritain. The immigration laws of United States are quite strict for Filipinonurses making it difficult for them to settle there. Hence, many workers in thehealth industry are choosing countries like Saudi Arabia and UK over America asthey are getting better opportunities and scope of residing permanently inthese countries.

If a nurse had anentrepreneurial side to them and a few years under their cap, a nurse couldcreate their own job. They might start a CPR and First Aid class; providenursing for events involving any number of people including children that mighttake place at a beach or a park. Vacation clubs might want a nurse on duty totake care of any routine or non life threatening medical needs that mightarise. Perhaps you might want to contract out nursing care instead of workingthrough an agency. These are only the tip of the iceberg in possibilities for anurse with a sense of self employment.

Finding your first Nursing Job may take a littletime. Before you begin your job search, you should have a plan. Do you wantnursing to be a career or just a job? Answering that question may help youdefine your plan. If you have a goal in place, even before attending nursingschool, it will create the career path and stepping stones for you. If yourgoal is just to have a job, your job search will be easier. If your ultimategoal is to be a nursing administrator or to teach, you will need educationbeyond a Bachelor of Science degree, a certain amount of years experience andsome in a supervisory capacity.

Nursing schools oftenwill assist graduates to get that first job. It can only be to your advantageto take advantage of all the help the school will offer. Many schools willoffer their alumni access to job placement message boards through the school.Medical facilities will often set up job fairs in the last half of the schoolyear. The purpose is to interview potential candidates for entry levelpositions in the nursing field.

Finding your secondjob will be a lot easier than your first. With some experience under your cap,you will be more marketable. If your skills are sharp and varied, you go to thehead of the class. If you network within the medical community throughprofessional associations, you might find the perfect job before it is everadvertised anywhere. When you look for a job, ask around and find out who ishiring. A facility might not know they need to hire you until they know you areavailable. Networking is the name of the game on the job market. Keep yourresume and license up to date. Build your resume by taking professionalenrichment and skill building classes. The more experience and training youhave the more in demand you will become. Just be ready when the job of alifetime comes knocking at your door.

Nursing is among the oldest of professions, and with modern medical breakthroughs a nursing job can be highly lucrative. A nursing job will require you to be dedicated and diligent. If you don't think you would enjoy giving 100% you probably won't enjoy a nursing job.

However if you like science and medicine and enjoy helping people, a nursing job could bring you great satisfaction.

Many options in work environment exist in nursing jobs today. The common picture of a nurse is of someone standing next to your hospital bed, but today nurses perform many different functions both in hospitals and patient homes. You'll find a lot of nursing job options available in an environment that will suit you.

Private nursing jobs may involve working in a hospital or home with a single patient, helping them recover from an illness or surgery. Caring for a patient with a chronic or terminal disease could also be a private nursing position.

Another nursing job, that of Hospice Nurse, works with dying patients and their families to ease the death transition. Hospice Nurses also act as liaison between doctors and medical staff, allowing the patient to remain at home where they are comfortable for the remainder of their life.

More traditional nursing jobs involve operating room nurses. These nurses are the surgeons right hand, and must have a good understanding of the procedures being performed and the equipment used. If you are detail oriented, a job as an operating room nurse could be for you.

Can you remain calm in a crisis? If so, a job as a trauma nurse could be right up your alley. These nurses work in large hospitals or trauma centers, and may be responsible for helping save the lives of people injured in accidents or catastrophic events.

Institutional nurses treat all manner of sickness and injury in young patients. If you are someone who likes kids, you might enjoy this type of nursing job. Institutional nurses work in schools, colleges, shelters and nonprofit organizations. This is a low-stress nursing job where you could get to know your patients.

Today, home health care nurses work in a variety of settings from the rural to the urban. This nursing job involves traveling from patient to patient, caring for their needs and relaying medical information to doctors and medical staff. Home health care nurses help patients to remain at home and still get the care that they need. As a home health care nurse, you would need to use mobile equipment to monitor patient health. This nursing job would allow you to interact closely with patients.

Another nursing job is that of hospital nursing. Hospital nurses are expected to master new equipment and technologies quickly. This nursing job involves responsibility for patient care as patients recover from surgery or sickness. The speed of patient recovery depends on the care hospital nurses provide. This nursing job is very satisfying when patients improve under your care.

Get started on your nursing career now! Check into local nursing schools and ask about the curriculum. With qualified nurses in short supply, nursing school graduates can choose their employers and receive hiring bonuses as well.

For those tasked withdelivering the Government's cost savings, jobs may seem the easiest thing tocut…

We've heard a lot fromthe coalition Government about how it intends to reduce public spending withouthurting front-line services. It's all about delivering more efficiently, we'vebeen told. But however nice that sounds in theory, in most cases the Governmentwill be devolving responsibility for those cuts down the chain – and for thosetasked with slashing budgets, cutting jobs will often seem a lot morestraightforward than re-engineering service delivery. Just look at the(supposedly ring-fenced) NHS, where a nursing union has just reported that 100NHS trusts are planning to shed about 10,000 nursing jobs between them. Unfortunately,both in the NHS and beyond, managers are more familiar with the axe than thescalpel…

You’d havethought the NHS would escape relatively unscathed from the cuts row, since theTories have been so desperate to maintain that they'd increase health spendingin real terms throughout this Parliament (a pledge that people are increasinglygrumbling about, given the scale of the cuts to other departments). However,Whitehall is – quite rightly – keen for the NHS to operate more efficiently, sofunds can be diverted elsewhere. And ministers have apparently been told tosave some £20bn off their £100bn+ budget by 2014. 

The trouble is that the individual trusts – whohave to find these savings – don't seem to be taking a terribly enlightenedapproach. The Royal College of Nursing has done a survey of 100 trusts, anddiscovered that 9,973 posts have been lost because of recruitment freezes,redundancies, and staff not being replaced when they leave. A large number arealso planning things like compulsory redundancies and ward closures to savemoney – precisely what the Government was hoping to avoid. Yesterday healthminister Anne Milton accused health trusts of 'living in the past andinterpreting efficiency savings as budget and service cuts… This is wrong.' 

But this highlights the big problem with the hugecuts the Government is hoping to implement across the public sector: for themanagers concerned, reducing headcount is the quickest way to slash budgets.Particularly (though not exclusively) in public sector organisations like theNHS, which have enjoyed real-terms budget increases for years, there's just noculture of operating smarter and more efficiently; managers just don't have anyexperience of it. What's more, they're unlikely to get much help from upstairs- and hiring consultants to help them is probably a no-no too these days. Sothey'll end up attacking what looks like lowest-hanging fruit, namely jobs,even though that will cause far more problems in the longer term. 

Given the huge expansion of the NHS under NewLabour – and since productivity hasn't risen in line with expenditure – there'sclearly room for it to operate more efficiently. The same goes for other publicsector departments. The question is: are those at the front line actuallycapable of delivering this? Maybe the outlook's not so bad for consultantsafter all…

One of the most important things to consider if you are lookingfor a job is the aspect of remuneration. Remuneration pertains to how much thejob will reward you financially. One of the reasons why the traveling nursingjob has become so coveted and so popular is that the job generally has a goodfinancial reward. What you need to know is that the travel nurse job market hasa lot to offer to those who have what it takes top become travel nurses.

Travel nursing jobs are found all over the USA and all over theworld. There are numerous private companies which seek nursing professionalsall the time to perform various nursing duties in the travel settings. Thenursing responsibilities span through professions such as CNA or RegisteredNursing (RN) certifications. All you need to do is to evaluate yourself interms of the education you have acquired and the experience you have if youhave what it takes then you will select the kinds of companies you would wantwork if you have choice.

The CNAs for instance perform ancillary clinical and hospitaltasks. These can include work like prescribing medication for the outpatientsand performing diagnosing on in-patients. You will need to be patient in thiskind of calling if you are to rise with ranks with passage of time and get tothe kind of a job that you really want. What you need to do to get a nursingjob in Travel environs is to evaluate your skills, passion and experience.

Not to downplay the critical factor of having a passion for whatyou do regardless of the factor of remuneration, fact is we get into jobs toearn a living and be able to fulfill our financial and materialresponsibilities. This is why you will have to consider the kind of travel nursingjob that will fulfill or satisfy your salary expectation and financial needs.

Needles to say it not easy to get the kind of a job that willsatisfy your salary expectation from the word go. Even in the domain of travelnursing you will have to be patient for sometime before you can get to thatkind of a travel nursing position where you can be remunerated satisfactorily.There are cases where you can be privilege to get into a job vacancy that iswell paying but in many cases you have to craft your way up the ranks beforeyou can record that dream or target salary. In anything worthwhile there are noshort cuts whatsoever. What you need to do is to evaluate yourself in terms ofwhat you have to offer. You will look at the education and level of working experiencethat you posses and then be able to establish where you fit in terms of whattravel companies employers are looking for.

What you need to do is conduct a wide search over the internetand get in touch the organizations such travel nurse job agencies that willlink you up with appropriate employers that seek what you have to offer.
