Nursing comes to the Philippines

Americans began training the first Filipino nursing students in 1907. Nursing students in the Philippines studied many of the same subjects as nursing students in the U.S. However, Choy says, the curriculum in the Philippines “was never a mirror-image reproduction of the American nursing curriculum” and involved more than a simple transfer of knowledge from American nurses to Filipino nurses. The first Filipino nursing students also studied subjects that were more relevant to their patients, such as “the nursing of tropical diseases” and “industrial and living conditions in the islands,” as described by Lavinia L. Dock’s 1912 book A History of Nursing: From the Earliest Times to the Present Day with Special Reference to the Work of the Past Thirty Years.

In addition, Filipino nursing students studied English; today, the Philippines is the third-largest English-speaking country in the world. However, Choy notes, Filipino nursing students didn’t lose their native language; Philippine schools of nursing believed the best way to promote physical health was to have a select few medical professionals spread their knowledge “in the dialects of their own people,” as described in the Philippine General Hospital School of Nursing Ninth Annual Announcement and Catalogue, 1915-1916.





Through the 1930s, Philippine schools of nursing continued to adopt those aspects of American professional nursing they deemed relevant and appropriate, such as higher admission standards and the specialization of public health nursing.

Training and practice at the hospital schools of nursing in Manila was “violently disrupted” when the Japanese occupied the Philippines in 1942, Choy says. However, U.S. colonial patterns in Philippine nursing education soon returned after the U.S. reclaimed the country in 1945 and even after the Philippines gained independence from the U.S. July 4, 1946.
