Omega Healthcare Guides Philippine Nurses to Become USRNs

The leading healthcare solutions provider advances employee development and elevates service excellence through its USRN Academy

Omega Healthcare, a global leader in revenue cycle management (RCM) solutions, continues to champion employee growth and clinical excellence across its delivery centers, including the Philippines. Central to this mission is its USRN Academy, a flagship initiative designed to help Philippine Registered Nurses (PHRNs) achieve United States Registered Nurse (USRN) certification through intensive training and professional mentorship.

Expanding Career Pathways and Elevating Service Excellence
The USRN Academy addresses the rising demand for USRNs while strengthening Omega Healthcare’s clinical services. Beyond workforce requirements, the program creates clear career pathways for PHRNs, empowering them to advance professionally and reach new milestones in their careers.

Through the academy, nurses gain comprehensive training that equips them with the knowledge and skills required to navigate the U.S. healthcare system. Participants gain exposure to advanced clinical practices, develop specialized expertise, and access upskilling and cross-training opportunities—helping them enhance clinical capabilities, access competitive compensation, and achieve long-term career growth.

“The USRN Academy strengthens our workforce by embedding advanced clinical skills that ensure the consistent delivery of high-quality services aligned with client expectations. At the same time, it creates meaningful career opportunities for our employees, empowering them to grow as professionals while delivering world-class healthcare services to our clients,” said Everem Tejada, Deputy General Manager – Service Line, who leads the USRN Academy at Omega Healthcare.

Structured Training for Lasting Impact
Nurses selected for the USRN Academy demonstrate strong professional potential and a commitment to career advancement. Participants undergo structured, comprehensive training designed to prepare them for USRN certification.

Omega Healthcare provides end-to-end support, including mentorship, training, and guidance on certification requirements. This allows participants to focus on building the competencies necessary to succeed as USRNs. Upon completion, they are placed in roles that maximize their skills, driving both personal growth and meaningful contributions to the organization’s clinical services.

Proven Results and Future Goals
Since its launch, the USRN Academy has maintained an impressive passing rate of 96–97%, with an increasing number of PHRNs successfully transitioning to USRNs each year. In 2025, Omega Healthcare aims to help 200 Filipino nurses achieve USRN certification, reinforcing its commitment to advancing careers, strengthening clinical capabilities, and investing in Filipino talent.

“Through the USRN Academy, Filipino nurses gain the chance to advance their careers while earning competitive salaries in the Philippines. This program allows them to achieve global qualifications without leaving the country, providing financial stability for their families and contributing to the growth of the local healthcare workforce. It is a meaningful way to invest in Filipino talent and help professionals unlock new opportunities for success,” added Tejada.

The USRN Academy continues to exemplify Omega Healthcare’s dedication to nurturing world-class healthcare talent while empowering Filipino nurses to reach new heights in their careers.
