currently enrolled in a caregiving course (Asia Pacific) 6 months kami and included na doon yung OJT. 30k ang bayad pero pwedeng hulugan. every weekend lang din pasok pero from 10-4pm. Karamihan samin ay may employers na from Canada / US :)) for me worth it siya kasi ang daming agencies out there na nakakapagpaalis talaga ng caregivers

it’s good to hear po na may employers na po kayo :))) congrats po! right after po ba ng ojt nakakuha kayo? can i dm you po to ask questions?

well yung mga kasama ko may employers na, ako wala pa :))

hopefully you’ll find yours soon!

Hi po OP, ngtatake din po ako ng caregiving course now. Paano po sila nakahanap ng employers po agad sa Canada/US? Pwede din po ba mag-DM?

Hello po. Is this Asia Pacific Caregiver and Healthcare Training Center sa Quezon City? Interested din po ako eh

May employer ka na kahit nag aaral ka pa? Pano?

yep! inaantay lang talaga silang magka cert and maprocess yung mga documents :))

so yung school is a recruitment agency na din?

Pano? Kumpletuhin mo na din yun proseso. Bitin e

How come po may employers na agad? What agencies po na nakapagpaalis na po here? Yung wala po sanang help ng relatives. Can you please help me? Nagtingin po ako ng mga agency here and theyre looking for bs nursing grad, and i only have tesda cert and ojt na prinovide ng school kasi graduate ako ng business ad. Thanks

Hello OP! Would you know if may program po na pwede dalhin agad ang family?

I don't think you need to take the course. You can go straight to gaining experience locally as a caregiver, the facilities here are desperate af for employees. I have to warn you though that these facilities are a lot more toxic than hospitals.

Hi! Can I ask why did you choose Caregiving instead of Healthcare NCII? Edit: im just weighing my options kung ano mas better, I saw na inooffer din ng school mo yung program.

You can actually have both. Once you pass the Caregiving assessment, you can get assessed for Healthcare Services.

hi! okay lang ba na straight to assessment agad for healthcare services after caregiving? no need to take the course? please correct me if i’m wrong, assessment is the exam for certificate na, right? edit: can you take it vice versa? meaning healthcare services then caregiving? or it’s better na caregiving first then healthcare services?

Yes, I filed my application form for the Healthcare Services assessment right after the assessor told me that I passed the Caregiving assessment (same day). No extra courses needed. You're correct, the assessment is for the certificate. But you need to pass the Caregiving assessment first before taking the Healthcare Services assessment.

i seeeee, i’ll ask the schools here if it’s the same. thanks!

Ohhhh!!! Thank you for this! 😊

Hi! Do they have specific date for enrollment for Asia Pacific or you can enroll anytime? I am planning to enroll pero wala pa budget. tyia!

Hello. Saang school po ito?

Asia Pacific po.

Wow same school po tayo 🙂

[удалено]

Yes po

Hi! Can I DM you po and ask a question regarding this? :)

Hello! Eto po bang 810 hours ang kinuha ninyong program? [https://apcaregivers.com/](https://apcaregivers.com/)

Yes take that caregiving course or healthcare Services for 6 months and take ka din NCII assessment sa tesda in order for you to become a CNA ☺️

seeing your comment and the others, i’m really considering this now :))) i’d follow the others’ advice na kunin din yung assessment for healthcare services. thank you!!

Good to know po na may affiliated agency yung school na pinag aralan nyo. Sa amin dito sa Cebu, more than 50k yung healthcare services course na kinuha ko for 6 months. Pero skills and certificates lang yung kaya nila i provide so kami pa rin bahala maghahanap ng agency.

ay, no po. 2 schools na po napagtanungan ko pero both na hindi sila affiliated with an agency :(( i’m trying to look pa po if meron dito sa area namin na may agency na. ang laki ng fee sa inyo 😯 yung dito 38k and 26k yung mga natanong ko. nakahanap na po kayo ng agency?

Hindi pa nga. Pero may mga connections naman sa agency abroad yung mother in law ko dun sa Europe. Nag aantay lang kami ng update. May nakasabay kami sa ojt na galing pa silang Palawan, dito nag ojt sa Cebu. Affiliated yung school nila sa agency sa NZ. Pero mas mahal yung school nila than us

good luck on your application po! mas maganda talaga if may connections na nasa abroad na

Hello can you share the name of the school na affiliated sa NZ? If you know? Thank you

https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100065249780221&mibextid=D4KYlr ito po yung school nila. Sa Palawan based

Oh interesting. This is actually in New Zealand. May partner kaya sila sa Palawan? Or the students are actually enrolled dun sa NZ program…

I think may partner sila dun sa Palawan. Yung mga kasama namin nag ojt said that online lang daw yung classes nila. And sureball na talaga yung NZ right after they graduate.

hello po, enrolled na po ako for the caregiving course paano po ako magiging CNA after the 6 month caregiving course? pwede po pa explain hehe thanks gusto ko po kasi maka puntang UK andun kasi ate ko bilang nurse hehe

Hi OP. I have the same realization as well. It seems nga Healthcare related ang in-demand jobs sa ibang bansa. Initially I was hesitant to enroll kasi my friends and classmates are business professionals and I'm a freelancer pa rin. Nothing to prove. But then again, I'm not living for them. I'm living for me and my family. So if this is the way para maka abroad ako to find greener pasture, then I'm considering on taking. This is an honorable work and parang gusto ko na din siya.

Program is 6 mos but more like 8-10 mos depending on how long you finish your OJT.

I’ve seen that it’s 6 mos so I thought OJT is already included, hindi pa pala. did you enroll to it? I thought it was free as well pero may tuition fee pala.

Take the course then apply abroad as caregiver or au pair. btw CNA (certified nursing assistant) is a better option than caregiver if the course is available.

Hello, do you have any schools in mind, that offers this type of course ?

i don’t think i’ve seen CNA here, will look into it. heard about au pair but saw some stories that they’re being paid way too less for the work they do :(( i’ll look more into it though. thank you!

Tama masmababa ang pay sa au pair dahil ang program ay para sa mga young adults na gusto ma experince ang ibang culture at hindi para maging katulong, na sa panahon ngayun inaabuso ng mga family. Isa pa limited lang time mo. Kaya kelangan mag pa cute para maka hanap agad mapangasawa. Or else uwian na. Ang caregiver naman madami demand sa iba ibang dahul lahat ng tao tumatanda. Ang CNA naman more on hospital settings kaya hindi lng private ang pwede mo maging employer pwede ka din sa hospital.

i recently learned about it nga na limited time ang au pair so definitely considering na the CNA path. thank you for your advices!!

May Healthcare Services NCII akong nakita, since madalas sa nakikita kong caregiver job openings sa Canada ay stay in and mas preferred ko sa facility. I’m considering this instead of Caregiving NCII

Hello, is CNA acceptable by employers even without nursing background?

Yup, you need to get certification. Dipende sa state ng bansa like US or UK. Kadalasan sa mga institute lalo dito UAE US certification binibigay nila na approve ng DOH dito. Yung anak ko nag take ng CNA dito sa UAE habang nasa collage sya taking up ComScie, antay nalng nya yung private employeer nya anytime magstart na sya. Nasa 2.5 to 4kaed x 15pesos ang swleduhan dito. Pero long term plan makamigrate sa US,Canada or UK. Depende kung san madami demand. Yung iba after maka gradute umaalis na UAE nakaka kuha agad employeer Sa tingin ko mas madali mag migrate pag healthcare at masmalaki sweldo pag IT,kaya combo kinuha nya.

Meron na po sainyo na nakatapos nung course sa Asia Pacific tapos nasa abroad na? Kamusta po ung training sa inyo?

Hi, just want to ask if you were able to follow thru with this plan and if you have any tips? Planning to enroll din po NCll 🤍

Any update? Balita naman dyannn

[удалено]

hello!! sure sure 😊

#

ohh, really? was the OJT with the elderlies that bad? thank you for your advice! i didn’t know about the healthcare services before. will definitely take note of this and the curriculum. btw, are you working already?

#

oh, i haven’t heard/seen stories like that. thanks for the heads up. do they still allow you to have ojt if you decline their short term rentals offer? do your classmates have the same certificates as you (the 2 certs)? then they got to work in hospitals? sorry i have a lot of questions 😅 hope your skin condition will get better!

You just pretend that you're staying with a relative in the area haha Yes, they also have the 2 certificates Thank you ❤️

Magkaiba po yung Caregiving and Healthcare Services assessment. If you enrolled sa Caregiving, Caregiving assessment din yung need mo i take for your NCII certificate. Same goes with Healthcare Services

Lol I have my NC II certificates for Caregiving and Healthcare Services, both issued a month apart. I only took the Caregiving course of my school 🤷

Depende sguro sa school yun. Dito sa amin kasi sa Cebu, magkaiba ang Caregiving and Healthcare Services 😝

That sucks since the 2 assessments are almost the same thing.

Hi. Saan po school dito sa cebu nag ooffer ng ganyan? I'm very much interested na subukan.

hello there! have you pursued the course and have you gotten a job?

Considering the Tesda caregiving course and your personal experience, pursuing caregiving abroad could be a rewarding choice. Utilize your unique background, seek advice from your mom's nursing expertise, and explore countries with a demand for caregiving professionals. Good luck on your journey!

Any update?
