MedPro International works closely with the Republic of the Philippines Department of Migrant Workers to protect the rights and ensure the welfare of Filipino healthcare workers and their families in the U.S. The Philippines has been a highly valued partner in providing quality healthcare staffing to facilities across the U.S., allowing Filipinos to achieve their professional goals while making valuable contributions to their families back home. The United States and the Philippines share a long alliance and mutual dedication to improving both countries' healthcare systems. Since 1960, over 150,000 Filipino nurses have immigrated to the U.S., and Filipino nurses currently make up approximately 4 to 6 percent of the U.S. nursing workforce.
