In London (with the experienced filipina nurses) you'd be paying 20 times that. Portland hospital is 1k/night!

And there is no guarantee the treatment will be any better either [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif[/img]
I heard that trained nurses are leaving the Philippines at the rate of about 10,000 a year, to work overseas. No wonder there are none left to look after the tourists.
My wifes niece finished her training in Angeles University Foundation hospital (AUF), a couple of years back, and they offered her a job for 4000 pesos a month, 'until she had some experience' then she might get a pay rise!!!!
And they wonder why they are leaving?? [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/Erm.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/huh.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif[/img]
