hi! what is your agency? well i took the MOH exam last october for private hospitals... the exam was conducted my MOH delegates... so the dec. exam will also be facilitated by them... my set of questions were mostly med-surg... it was one heck of a set... really hard! they said the set that i got was one of the hardest... just try to browse on med-surg and a little of psych... and my agency also said that the dec. exam will be twice as hard... so, Godbless us!

HI! Mother's Way.. How many itemss? are all of them multiple choices? So there are sets of test papers?

ah ok... the exam is 30 items... multiple choice... yes, there are sets... around 30 as well i think...

what will happen after the exam? did you already had your medical or contract?
Whats the name of the employer or hospital and their salary offer?

took the exam last oct 24 here in kuwait... here are some of the questions asked in my set(set A)
koplik spots manifestation ans measles, hip fracture what to avoid- crossing legs, bypass surgey 1 goal prevent infxn, ,bentspoon for cleft palate, catqract, digoxin action , low back pain what to aviod= excedding loads to carry,, succesful cpr= pulse palpable, deep breathing to prevent what ,,, diet copd soft bland , sickle cell crisis piroity = fluid, tpn compli= hypergly, solid food=6mos, vaccine oral- polio, salmonela poisonng =diarrhea, hparin=prot sulfate, pyloric stenisi=vomiting, beefy red tongue=pernicius, inc ICP= slow bounding
ephiniprine action( my ans pulse from140 to 90 check) thoraocotmy botle=avoid air entry, MI- necrsois of heart msdiuretics= pot depletionwhat time to check tem after surgery every 5,10 15, 20 mins( my ans 15 mins,, not sure)
..

after the exam is the interview... they will ask you questions in relation to your line of work (ex. ER, Dialysis, MS, ENT, etc.)... also they will check your original documents while they interview you... there were 3delegates during my interview... some sort of a panel interview... then when you pass the interview they will tell you the salary offer... and then the agency will contact you for the briefing (ex. job offer, how many months of waiting, etc.)... The employer is in the private sector... We really dont know where they will assign us... i guess it will depend on your area of work...

The set up is like this... We will apply in an agency here in the philippines... This agency has a counterpart agency in Kuwait... Lets say for example...

1. Kuwait International (Kuwait-based Agency) has a job order from private/public hospitals for 300 nurses from all areas
2. Kuwait International (Kuwait-based agency) will contact Philippine international (Philippine-based agency) that they have an offer for 300 nurses
3. Philippine International (Philippine-based agency) will market the job order to Filipino nurses
4. Filipino Nurses will apply in Philippine International (Philippine-based agency)
5. Philippine International (Philippine-based agency) will inform Kuwait International (Kuwait-based agency) that they already have applicants for the position
6. Kuwait International (Kuwait-based Agency) in cooperation with Kuwait's Ministry of Health (licensing body) will conduct exam and interview in the Philippines
7. Applicants who passed the exam and interview will be given a briefing by Philippine International (Philippine-based agency)
8. Kuwait International (Kuwait-based Agency) will inform private/public hospitals that they already have the 300 nurses
9. Public/private hospitals in Kuwait will give the job offer and visa for the 300 nurses...

So, there are 2 agencies involved in the process... One is a philippine-based agency and their counterpart in Kuwait... The placement fee is 1month salary...

Hope my explanation is ok... =)

may lalaki na nurse po bang nag take din ng exam?

really helpfull detailed explanation... i like it thank you..
At what area did they assigned you? is it the same salary they offered you, 600-700KD?

may mga kasama po kaming male examinees... but during the interview they said na sa december nalang daw magtry since 10males lang ang kukunin nila last october... sa december exam po male ang priority nila...

i'm glad i can be of help... last october it was for private hospitals/clinics... i think they assigned me in a clinic... i'm really not sure because they did not tell us... the salary offer is much lesser... around 250-300KD + accomodation... that's why i plan to take the exams this december because of the offer which is twice than that of the private hosp....

this is a great help thanks for posting...

so this december its for government hospital which is the salary higher than the private hospitals hiring last october?

yes... definitely higher salary offer this december... because it would be 650-700KD...
