MANILA (Apr. 25) -- The number of Filipino nurses wanting to work in the U.S. declined by 10.5 percent in the first quarter of this year, the Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP) reported over the weekend.
TUCP secretary-general and former Senator Ernesto Herrera said a total of 4,194 Filipino nurses sought to practice their profession in America by taking the NCLEX for the first time from January to March. This was 492 fewer compared to the 4,686 that took the test for the first time in the same period in 2008.
