In recent years, the Philippines has faced a critical nursing shortage that poses significant challenges to its healthcare system. With an increasing demand for healthcare services due to a growing and aging population, the shortage of qualified nurses has become a pressing issue. This shortage impacts not only the quality of patient care but also the overall efficiency of healthcare delivery.

Our event aims to provide a comprehensive update on this critical issue, exploring the root causes of the nursing shortage in the Philippines and its implications for the healthcare system. We will discuss the factors contributing to the shortage, such as migration of healthcare professionals, inadequate training opportunities, and insufficient support for nursing staff.

The event will also highlight innovative solutions and strategies being implemented to address this challenge. Key topics will include recruitment and retention strategies, advancements in nursing education, policy reforms, and the role of technology in supporting nursing professionals.

In this regard, the Healthcare and Wellness Committee of the American Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines will be hosting a roundtable discussion on "Addressing the Nursing Shortage: A Critical Update on the Philippines' Healthcare Challenge", which is set to happen on September 30, 2024 at the AmCham Robert Sears Hall.
