The four-year long run of RNheals program has been scrapped by the DOH in
exchange for the Nurse Deployment Project 2014. In RNheals, nurses are only
receiving Php 8,000 monthly stipend and PhilHealth and GSIS contributions. As for
the NDP, DOH will not only be employing the nurses (rather than only deploying
them) and will be receiving around Php 18,549 or Salary Grade 11 including all the
benefits a DOH employee receives.
