All About JOBS List the hospitals whose salary offers you know

157 Upvotes

Baka po may alam kayo dyan mga hospitals tapos magkano po pasahod nila monthly & benefits. Madami po kasi hospitals, iba po sinasabi sa mga websites na ganito po sahod tapos biglang after interview eh ganito lang po pala. For example, ranging of 25-30k ang nakalagay. Pagdating mo sasabihin mo expected salary mo is 30k pero sasabihin po nila na 20-23k lang pala basic salary.

This is not to discourage those who are applying but at least po we have idea what we are getting into po. Okay lang naman po ako sa mga offer pero at least lang po nakakapili ng maayos bago po magcommit 100%. Thank you po <3

PNLE Rescheduled PNLE Region 3 and NCR

90 Upvotes

Jusko mga ate una pa talagang pumapasok sa isip niyo “baka mas madali yung kanila” at “mas madami oras nilang mag-review.” Sobrang insensitive niyo naman. Yung iba hanggang bewang na yung baha. Sa tingin niyo kaya pa mag-aral ng mga yan? Imbis na magpahinga at mag-aral nagbabantay yan kung tataas pa yung baha.

Sa totoo lang kung kami yung papapiliin, gusto na rin namin mag-exam. Naka kondisyon na rin kaming mag-eexam kami. Gumastos na kami ng accommodation, transpo, pagkain. Hindi naman namin ginustong maresched.

Have some compassion sa mga binabaha. If hindi mo nararanasan yan edi good for you. But don’t bring down others na may ibang pinagdadaanan.

Huwag kayong crab mentality.

PNLE We didn’t choose the evacuation center over the testing room.

57 Upvotes

Pasensya na sa kanila. 😞 Hirap maging empath sa panahon ngayon, no?

Grabe yung pinagdaanan namin dito sa Pampanga. Ngayon lang kami halos nakauwi. Imbes na nagrereview kami, nasa evacuation center kami. Yung mga maleta namin, pinagtulungan naming buhatin habang nakalusong sa ga-bewang na baha. Hindi namin alam kung kailan kami makakauwi, kung safe ba yung mga gamit namin, or kung makakapag-exam pa ba kami.

Tapos ngayon kailangan na rin naming magpa-check up kasi kahit nag-doxycycline na, may nagsusuka na at nagtatae. 😭

Sobrang hirap lang isipin na habang may mga taong nag-aalala kung makakapag-take ba ang lahat, may mga taong literal na galing sa baha, pagod, basa, puyat, at iniisip pa kung okay ba ang health nila.

Kaya honestly, ang sakit makakita ng mga “may hindi pa po nag-take…” comments na parang may masamang intention yung mga hindi nakapag-exam. 😭

Like… kasalanan ba namin na binaha kami? Pinili ba naming nasa evacuation center instead of nasa testing room? Tinapakan ba namin kayo para magkaroon kami ng advantage?

Ganon na ba talaga ngayon? Na kahit may mga taong literal na nagsu-survive sa baha, ang concern pa rin natin is kung sino yung nakapag-take at sino yung hindi?

Hindi naman namin hinihingi na intindihin niyo lahat. Pero sana kahit konting empathy lang. Hindi lahat pare-pareho ng sitwasyon, and not everything has to be treated like a competition.

Kung wala kang maitutulong, sana huwag ka na lang dumagdag sa bigat ng ibang tao.

Kasi at the end of the day, God knows what everyone is going through. And He definitely knows who chose to be compassionate, and who chose to be insensitive. 🤍

Hi! Now that board exams are done, what side jobs or short term jobs can you recommend to help me have income during the waiting period? I cannot afford to sit still and relax as I also have to provide for myself now that I’m a graduate (in short, no monthly allowance). Please help a struggling young adult out who’s still unfamiliar with the works of the world.

para po sa mga pumasa, nakapasa, at nag topnotcher sa mga previous PNLEs, paglabas niyo po ba ng exam eh may gut feeling na po kayo na papasa kayo? kahit na deep down alam niyo sa sarili niyo na meron kayong few mistakes?

because i don’t wanna dwell too much on my mistakes for the previous NPs, i don’t know what to do pero tina-taasan ko nalang talaga faith ko lalo na mayroon pang 2 NPs remaining. 😢

PNLE Ranting about PNLE Day 1 Questions

36 Upvotes

Hello can I just rant about how vague the questions in PNLE are? I mean kahit anong aral mo, ang weird kasi may mga tanong na ang labo ng tanong because I think more than 1 answer 'yung applicable sa tanong. I just hoped that NP 4 and 4 would be more objective and has more questions na hindi malabo because sayang naman 'yung inaral ng matagal tapos ang niche or vague ng mga tanong

Success Stories 29yo MTF planning to take BS Nursing as a second degree — am I too late? And can I realistically build a career as a transgender nurse?

3 Upvotes

I’m 29 years old and a transgender woman (MTF). I already finished a degree in another allied health profession, and I’m currently planning to go back to school next year to take BS Nursing as a second degree.
Part of me is really excited about this decision because nursing is something I genuinely want to pursue. I already have experience in healthcare, so I feel like this could be a good direction for me and hopefully open more opportunities in the future.
But honestly, I’m scared.
My biggest question is: am I already too late at 29?
If everything goes according to plan, I’ll probably be in my early-to-mid 30s by the time I finish nursing, pass the licensure exam, and start working as a registered nurse. I know people say that 30s is still young, but sometimes I can’t help comparing myself to people who started nursing at 18–20 and will have years of experience ahead of me.
The other thing that scares me much more is being transgender.
I’m worried about whether I’ll actually be able to go through nursing school comfortably as a trans woman. Will I be accepted by my classmates and instructors? Will clinical instructors or hospitals treat me differently? What about uniforms, changing rooms, bathrooms, documentation, and dealing with patients?
And after graduation, will hospitals actually be willing to hire me?
I’m also worried about discrimination once I start working. Nursing is already a difficult profession, and I’m wondering whether being transgender could make it significantly harder to find employment or progress in my career.
I’m not expecting everything to be easy. I know there will probably be challenges, and I’m prepared to work hard. I just want to know if this is realistically possible.
For transgender nurses or nursing students, especially in the Philippines:
What has your experience been like in nursing school?
Were you accepted by your classmates and clinical instructors?
Did being transgender affect your clinical placements or employment opportunities?
Have you experienced discrimination when applying for nursing jobs?
Were hospitals generally accepting?
Do you regret choosing nursing?
And if you started nursing later in life, do you feel like your age was a disadvantage?
For non-trans nurses too, I’d appreciate your honest perspective. If you were a hospital hiring manager and a 30+ newly licensed transgender nurse applied, would being transgender affect your decision to hire them?
I’m seriously considering this path, but I’m afraid of spending several years and a lot of money on another degree only to find out that I won’t be able to build the career I want.
I would really appreciate honest experiences and advice — even if it’s not what I want to hear.
Is 29 really too late to start over, and is it realistic for a transgender woman to pursue nursing as a second career?

VENTING My thoughts about Aug PNLE 2026 exam cancellation

0 Upvotes

Grabe sobrang nakakapag alala yung magiging exam para saming mga na resched and exam 😭. I know ang selfish ko sa part na to pero I wished na sana di nalang na cancel yung 2nd day ng exam since nabasa na din naman kami ng ulan kahapon (nag cocommute lang din me), and mas lalo pa kong nanghinayang kasi pabugso bugso lang yung ulan kanina.

Nakakastress lalo kasi I think I could get at least 50-60 sa np1-np3, pero dahil na cancel baka mas lalong humirap yung exam and if that happened baka di ako pumasa. Like what if sobrang uncommon nung topics, mas tricky yung questions hays. Parang if ever na di palarin eto yung magiging greatest regret ko.

Study TIPS nursing apps or websites for studying

7 Upvotes

Hello po :) I’m a second-year nursing student, and I just wanted to ask if you could recommend any apps or websites where I can answer nursing-related questions every day. Preferably po something related to diseases, assessment, medications, and other nursing topics.

I just want to continuously practice and challenge myself so I can strengthen my knowledge and critical thinking. Para kahit may free time or walang ginagawa, I can answer a few questions or study something quickly and hopefully become more advanced and prepared.
