Kawawa ang mga nag-aaral ng nursing, sobrang napakahina na ng kanilang pinag-aaralan - CHEd Advisers
7 CHED advisers quit over poor nursing education
SEVEN officials of the Commission on Higher Education Technical Committee on Nursing Education resigned yesterday due to alleged disagreement with CHED on upholding the quality of nursing education in the country.
They were Dr. Fely Marilyn Lorenzo, director, Institute of Health Policy and Development Studies; Dr. Carmelita Divinagracia, president, Association of Deans of Philippine Colleges of Nursing; Dr. Remedios Fernandez, Board of Nursing member of the Professional Regulation Commssion; Amelia Rosales, former chief nurse of the Makati Medical Center; Zylma Sanchez, former chairman of BON-PRC and administrator of Philippine Heart Center; Ma. Rita Tamse, assistant director for Patient Care Services of the Philippine General Hospital and Glenda Vargas, dean, University of Santo Tomas College of Nursing.
The seven officials yesterday submitted their resignation letters to Dr. Carlito Puno, chairman of CHED in Pasig City.
“Kawawa ang mga nag-aaral ng nursing, sobrang napakahina na ng kanilang pinag-aaralan,” the group said.
Lorenzo said they feel they no longer have the support of the CHED commissioner and some regional directors in upholding the quality of nursing education in the country.
“Sa totoo lang, kulang na kulang ang pinag-aralan ng mga nurses natin dito kung ihahambing sa ibang bansa,” they said.
Reliable sources said at least 470 nursing schools were affected by the resignation of the officials.
The groups claimed that the CHED, instead of implementing its memos and resolutions, bowed to political pressures and economic interests, sacrificing the quality of nursing education.
They said until now, no poorly peforming nursing schools have been closed while others operate without base hospitals and use secondary hospitals instead.
