Due to the great number of unemployed nurses because of no work experience, the government will soon launch the Nurses Assigned in Rural Areas (NARS). This is according to President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
The program will give additional job opportunities while preserving the need for good and experienced nurses abroad.
“The nurses that will be hired by the government will lead in the primary health, nutrition in schools, and giving the right diagnosis in the barangays,” the president adds. (rachiu/PIA)
