Abstract

The study utilized a descriptive-analytical style of quantitative research in order to describe and determine the contributing factors to nurse migration and test a hypothesis in order to analyze whether the differences in profile characteristics influence the variable contributing factors. Convenience sampling was used. A self-made questionnaire was used to gather this study's data. Data was analyzed through frequency distribution, mean, standard deviation, Mann-Whitney U Test and Kruskal-Wallis H Test. From the findings of the study, the following conclusion were drawn: 1. Majority of the respondents were Filipina nurses with age between 30 to 39, of Roman Catholic faith, married, have migrated in 2017 and 2019, have had four to six years of clinical experience in the Philippines, and have migrated to the middle east. 2. Economic and Socio-political were the highest contributing factors while the following were found to be moderately contributing factors: mental health, social health, and transportation. 3. Economic and socio-political factors plays a primary role in Filipino nurses’ decision to migrate regardless of their age, sex, religion, year of migration, years of clinical experience in the Philippines, and country of migration.
