TY - JOUR T1 - New ethics code targets recruiters of foreign nurses to United States JF - The Nation's Health JO - Nations Health SP - 23 LP - 23 VL - 38 IS - 9 AU - Teddi Dineley Johnson Y1 - 2008/11/01 UR - http://www.thenationshealth.org/content/38/9/23.1.abstract N2 - Archiel Buagas, RN, came to the United States from the Philippines three years ago hoping that a nursing job she’d obtained through a recruitment agency would open doors to a better way of life. But shortly after arriving in the country, Buagas learned she would be working for a different employer at a lower hourly wage than the employer with whom she’d signed a contract. She said the job switch was just the first in a string of broken promises that included inadequate training, improper paperwork and cramped, poorly heated housing.Copyright The Nation’s Health, American Public Health Association ER -
