The case before us traces its origin from the controversial June 2006 Philippine Regulatory Commission (PRC) Nursing Licensure Exams which involved leakage of actual examination questions, damaging the credibility of the professional examinations in the country and tarnishing the reputation of the Philippine nursing profession. One of the review centers involved in the controversy is INRESS Review Center (INRESS) headed by petitioner George C. Cordero (Cordero).On November 16, 2006, Cordero received a Summons1 dated November 8, 2006 from the Board of Nursing (Board) requiring him to file his counter-affidavit/verified answer to the attached Formal Charge2 for violation of Section 15 (a) of Republic Act (RA) No. 89813 and Section 23 (a), (b) and (f) of Article IV of RA No. 9173.4 Both documents were signed by then Chairperson of the Board, Carmencita Abaquin (Abaquin). The Formal Charge described Cordero's violations as follows:ChanRoblesVirtualawlibrary

The Atlantic has a longform article detailing the current US nursing shortage in which it highlights that 1.2 million nursing positions will be unfilled in the next five years. While nursing shortages have existed in the US for most of the last forty years, this one is going to be different. The US nurse supply has been artificially inflated since the start of the recession. Now that the recession has abated, nurse retirement numbers are spiking. Musillo Unkenholt saw more demand for foreign-trained nurses in 2015 than we had in the whole of 2009-14.
Distribution Challenges. Some of the American nursing problem stems from the lack of mobility in the nursing force. Nurses are often unwilling to leave their hometowns for jobs in rural areas or high-nurse demand areas, even if those positions pay better.
Lack of Foreign-Nurses. Because of a terribly though-out US immigration policy, it takes a nurse from the Philippines many years to legally obtain a visa, in spite of the nursing shortage. The Philippines has traditionally been the greatest supplier of US nurses. The story is even worse for India, which would certainly be able to supply the US with many nurses if it did not take 10 years for a fully-qualified nurse to obtain a US visa. As a result of the lack of US nursing visa options, foreign-trained nurses have declined sitting for the US licensing exams.

The Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) will release the official results of the June 2016 Nursing Board Exam in a few working days after the last day of exam. The NLE List of Passers will be added here once available from the PRC. Aside from the list of passers, the PRC will also release the Topnotchers (Top 10 Passers), Top Performing and Performing Schools which will be added here also.
The Professional Regulation Commission and the Board of Nursing conducted the Nursing Licensure Examination (NLE) on June 5-6, 2016 in various testing centers nationwide designated by the PRC. The list of testing centers includes the following: Manila, Bacolod, Baguio, Cagayan de Oro, Cebu, Davao, Iloilo, Legazpi, Lucena, Pagadian, Tacloban, Tuguegarao and Zamboanga.

NPs provide a wide range of direct care services to people at every stage of life. In addition to treating illnesses, they teach individuals and their families about healthy living, preventing disease and managing illness. NPs bring together medical knowledge with the values and skills of nursing. NPs are also leaders, consultants and researchers who incorporate new knowledge into their practice.

To meet the education requirements for licensure as an RN, you must graduate from an nursing education program acceptable to the New York State Education Department (NYSED). In addition, you must complete NYSED approved child abuse reporting and New York State required infection control coursework or qualify for an exemption from the coursework requirements.
A limited permit holder (called a "Graduate Nurse" or "GN") can temporarilly practice nursing under RN supervision at the health care facility noted on the limited permit. The GN must be employed by the health care facility and the supervising RN must be on the care unit with the GN when the GN provides care.
A limited permit is valid for up to 1 year or until 10 days after the GN is notified that they failed the NCLEX-RN, whichever happens first. A GN who fails the NCLEX-RN must cease practicing nursing when the limited permit expires. A GN who changes employers will have to obtain a new limited permit from NYSED to practice nursing for the new employer.
If you graduated from a nursing education program registered by NYSED as licensure qualifying for RN and you applied for licensure and a limited permit for RN, you may be legally allowed to practice nursing for 90 days immediately following graduation. To find out if you graduated from a qualifying New York nursing school, visit here. During the 90 day period, you must practice nursing as a GN while employed at the health care facility identified on your limited permit application and you must be personally supervised by an RN. The supervising RN must be on the patient care unit with you while you practice nursing.
This severe deficit in knowledge and attitude of Eritrean nurses might have arisen from the lack of attention given to pain assessment and management courses in the nursing schools. This is noticeable from the lack of sessions dedicated to pain assessment and management in most nursing school curriculums as well as the insufficient and disintegrated pain topics listed in different nursing courses. Previous studies that assessed the knowledge and attitude of the undergraduate nursing student on pain management reported a very low level of knowledge and attitude in all aspects of pain management [28,29,30]. The findings suggested that pain-related content of the curricula had not been enough to prepare these undergraduate nursing students to practice efficiently. Nurses who had frequent contact with patients had a higher level of knowledge and attitude regarding pain management [28]. Similarly, Aagaard et al. suggested that a curriculum with specific pain component that includes a particular model of clinical reasoning might have an influence on the development of positive attitude and belief of health care professionals towards pain [31]. Despite its worldwide high prevalence and its burden to the public, pain education has been given less priority including in medical schools. For example, a study conducted in Europe reported that only 30% of the medical schools from the representative countries had dedicated pain model in their curricula and it was compulsory only in 18% of them [32]. 2ff7e9595c
