Since the November 2008 Nurse Licensure Examination will utilize a competency-based test framework, candidates to the November 2008 NLE should familiarize themselves with the 11 core competency areas for nursing practice which include the following:

The November 2008 Nurse Licensure Examination consists of five parts. To help candidates maximize their review for the Nurse Licensure Examination this November, Pinoy R.N. and Ward Class have summarized the following important points on the coverage of the November 2008 Nursing Board Examination.

Nursing Practice I.
For Nursing Practice I, examinees need to be knowledgeable on the different theories, concepts, principles, and processes fundamental to the practice of nursing with emphasis on health promotion and health maintenance. It includes basic nursing skills in the care of clients across age groups in various settings as well as the various roles, functions, and responsibilities of the professional nurse in varied health care settings.

Candidates to the November 2008 Nurse Licensure Examination should also expect questions on the theoretical foundations of nursing, roles and functions of the nurse, nursing process, basic nursing skills, bioethical principles, patient’s bill of rights, nursing code of ethics, laws affecting nursing practice, nursing leadership and management, records management, nursing research, communication, and the nurse-client relationship.

Nursing Practice II.
Nursing Practice II covers theories, principles, and processes in the care of individuals, families, groups and communities to promote health and alleviate pain and discomfort, utilizing the nursing process as framework. It also includes the care of high risk and at-risk mothers, children and families during the various stages of the life cycle.

For this test, candidates to the November 2008 NLE need to review more about topics on Community Health Nursing and Maternal Child Nursing. Specific topics include principles and standards of CHN, levels of care, IMCI, PHC as a strategy, health care delivery system, vital statistics, FHSIS, epidemiology and demography, and environmental sanitation, growth and development, nursing care of the newborn, among others.

Nursing Practice III, IV, and V.
Nursing Practice III, IV, and V covers the theories, concepts, principles and processes in the care of clients with altered health patterns, utilizing the nursing process and integrating the key areas of nursing competencies. Questions on safe and quality care, health education, management of environment and resources and quality improvement, as well as personal and professional development, communication, collaboration, and teamwork, and ethico-moral-legal responsibility are expected in Nursing Practice III, IV, and V.

For Nursing Practice III, November 2008 Nurse Licensure Examination candidates need to study specifically on the management of clients in pain, and of clients with oxygenation, metabolic and endocrine, and elimination problems.

For Nursing Practice IV, nursing board examinees will likely be tested on concepts about disturbances on fluid and electrolytes, immunologic functioning, and cellular functioning. November 2008 NLE candidates also need to review on emergency and disaster nursing and the management of clients with inflammatory and infectious disorders, and of clients in acute biologic crisis.

Nursing Practice V generally covers disturbances in perception and coordination, and maladaptive patterns of behavior. Questions on neurologic, musculoskeletal, and sensory disorders as well as questions on psychiatric nursing are to be expected in this test.

Aside from reviewing on nursing topics, candidates to the November 2008 nursing board exam are expected to be knowledgeable on current events and various local and global nursing issues. It is also prudent for November 2008 Nurse Licensure Examination candidates to be familiar with the previous and present members of the Board of Nursing and their stand on issues concerning politics, religion, sexuality, and the nursing profession.

Applicants for the Nurse Licensure Examination (NLE) are advised to follow a new scheme in the processing of their applications.

The issuance of the pre-numbered Nurses Application Forms (NAFs) is coursed through the deans of the colleges of nursing. The applicants may secure a copy from their respective colleges. This procedure will assist the applicants to have time to read and properly accomplish the NAF, prepare the requirements and minimize the long queue and congestion in the filing areas as observed during the filing period.


Likewise, the students may correctly enter their respective school codes to assist the PRC and the Board of Nursing in the accurate recording and reporting of the performance of the colleges of nursing in the Nurse Licensure Examinations.


As a control measure in the issuance of the NAF, the deans of the colleges of nursing shall submit the following to the Application Division of PRC central or regional offices:


  • Letter of request signed by the Dean of the College of Nursing
  • List of graduates taking the NLE
  • Commitment letter stating that NO fee shall be charged to the applicant for the issuance of the NAF

Filing of the NAF and the accompanying requirements shall be undertaken personally by the applicant. The PRC Central Office and any of the Regional Offices will not accept and/or process application unless personally filed by the applicant.

The PRC Application Division is now accepting applications for the November 29-30, 2008 Nurse Licensure Examination. The deadline for the submission of application complete with all requirements is on October 17, 2008. Graduates are enjoined to start submission or application early.
