Nurse educators are vital in the future of healthcare and deserve recognition and benefits for this role they play. Nurse educators who are exposed to clinical and community settings are facing challenges different from those in the classroom setting. They are evidently at risk of exposure to numerous hazards, perils of life, and physical hardships when they do preceptorship to students. In accordance with the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) Memorandum Order (CMO) 15, a nurse educator must supervise a maximum of 10 students in clinical and community settings to complete the corresponding number of Related Learning Experience (RLE) contact hours equivalent to 1836 hours in every student. It is crucial that reforms and regulations be made to recompense nurse educators. Risk welfare is a financial benefit for nurse educators performing preceptorship in intensive nursing practice or RLEs. It is a payment to cover actual or potential threats or dangers associated with carrying out RLE activities. Proposed rates for the benefit may depend on the area and number of days of actual exposure; however, hospital settings may be considered at greater risk, warranting higher payment.

Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Information 2001;(11):27-29
Women occupy the majority among work force of education. The preliminary research on working condition and its effects on female teachers showed out workplace factors related to female teachers’ health and the changes of some psycho-physiological parameters as well as the signs of fatigue and strain after work. The research has made some suggestion for further studies

7.Supporting medical educators to ensure wellness of medical students
The Philippine Journal of Psychiatry 2023;4(2):16-20
Most medical faculty members assume various
roles such as educator, administrator, clinician,
and researcher. (1) Furthermore, they act as role
models for students and instruments to improve
student wellness. Strategies geared towards the
faculty can therefore promote a top-down
approach to enhancing student wellness. (2)
Unfortunately, there is a dearth of data about
this. If we expect the faculty to take care of
students’ wellness, then we must ascertain the
faculty’s wellness as well.

Acta Medica Philippina 2024;58(Early Access 2024):1-8
Background and Objectives:
The COVID-19 pandemic forced academic institutions to suspend face-to-face activities, causing a drastic shift to a remote and online setting for learning and teaching. While necessary, the sudden change created a lasting effect on the constituents of medical schools whose curriculum relied on lectures, clinical skills, and hospital experience in teaching its students. This study aims to describe the effect of the rapid digitalization on the medical faculty at the St. Luke’s Medical Center College of Medicine-William H. Quasha Memorial (SLMCCM) in Metro Manila, Philippines.
Methods:
Members of the medical faculty of the college were invited to participate in focus group discussions (FGDs) where four frames were discussed, namely content, pedagogy, technology, and mindset. Responses taken in the FGDs underwent thematic analysis to find commonalities and patterns among the concerns and comments of the faculty.
Results:
Analysis of faculty feedback regarding the four frames revealed a spectrum of responses, encompassing both positive and negative sentiments. Content-related feedback predominantly focused on strategies for effectively segmenting and synthesizing information within the online environment. Pedagogical concerns are primarily centered on adapting teaching methods and delivery styles to the online format. Technological feedback highlighted the perceived advantages and limitations of online platforms and tools, as well as the role of technological support in facilitating the transition to online instruction. Finally, a significant portion of the feedback addressed the psychological effects of the pandemic on faculty members as medical educators, with responses ranging from expressions of fear to statements of confidence.
Conclusion
In the context of the evolving educational landscape, particularly the accelerated adoption of online and hybrid learning models in medical education, faculty recognition of the necessity of digitalization is paramount. Despite the inherent challenges of this transition, the faculty's demonstrated openness to change and innovation presents a significant opportunity for institutional growth. By continuing to invest in these technologies, institutions can not only enhance the medical curriculum but also prepare future physicians for the increasingly digital nature of healthcare delivery
