Veronica Paula S.; Tan, Edita A.Item Restricted Migration and human capital: a case study on overseas Filipino nurses(2006-04) Baniqued, Reyda E.; Marquez, Robie Rina G.; Tan, EditaThis paper presents the qualifications and requirements overseas Filipino nurses acquire in order to go to their desired destinations, especially to the United States. The framework used is the Human Capital Model that assumes that people are utility maximizers, and that they take a lifetime perspective when making choices about investments. This paper utilizes a descriptive analytic case study and net present value analysis. The patterns and contents of the data gathered reveal that each destination has different qualifications, and the nurses who possess the needed qualities and requirements are the ones who are able to go. Destinations paying higher wages have more stringent requirements than countries offering lower wages. Thus, nurses who go to higher wage paying destination invest more on human capital than nurses who go to lower wage paying countries. The net present value of future benefits of investments associated with migration yields amount of returns for the different destination countries that is higher than what nurses will gain if they work in the Philippines. This makes migration a worthy investment for Filipino nurses.Item Restricted The migration of Filipino nurses: its implications on the domestic market (final draft)(1984-01) Rimando, Carlos C. IIIItem Restricted Demand for education and the international outflow of nurses(1987-01) Manas, Marie Nella E.; Olonan, Minda ClaverItem Restricted The impact of the migration of Filipino nurses on the Philippine health system(2004-10) Jimenez, Ma. Cecilia; Pacheco, Jamila LalaineThe migration of nurses has become a controversial issue in the recent years because of the numerous implications this has on a country's health system. Health being a labor-intensive sector, its health workers is considered one of its most important assets. The purpose of this research is to see if indeed the international migration of nurses has resulted to a decrease in the number of nurses, and if this reduction has affected the performance of the health system, in general. To study these effects, the researchers have done both quantitative and qualitative analysis since to do a quantitative analysis only is not sufficient to capture the full effects of migration. For the quantitative analysis, both simple and multiple regressions were performed. Data from the years 1980 to 2000 was used. For the descriptive analysis, costs and benefits regarding the effects of international migration to the health system was made. In conclusion, the researchers found that quantity-wise, nurses have mostly insignificant effect on the dependent variable used - maternal mortality rate, infant mortality rate, perinatal mortality rate, and death rate caused by circulatory diseases - except the death rate caused by malignant neoplasm, where it has even a positive relationship. In terms of quality however, it was found out that the said migration caused a substantial loss in skilled and experienced nurses.Item Restricted Wanted: Filipino nurses a study on the demand and supply response of the Philippine health labor market(2004-10) Arcega, Elizabeth Marta C.; Rubia, Luningning E.
