Integrated Registered Nurses of the Philippines
(IRNUP) Historical Imperatives. As early as
1960s, the concept of integration was already being discussed by many nurse leaders and various nursing groups in several fora.
![Page 66: AILYN](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050711/5451c1c7b1af9f76248b4aa1/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
But while integration as a concept was well formed and understood in the minds of many, especially in the 1970s, when a draft proposal was made and fully supported by so many nurse leaders at the time, the idea had to be shelved until a more propitious time.
![Page 67: AILYN](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050711/5451c1c7b1af9f76248b4aa1/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Changes and Influences have occurred in several
fronts: A. proliferation of organized nursing
interest groups. B. changes in health care structures
and delivery of health services specially with the devolution of LGUs.
![Page 68: AILYN](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050711/5451c1c7b1af9f76248b4aa1/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
C. adoption of one type of basic nursing education (BSN), including the proliferation of weak programs damaging the quality of future nursing service eligible for payment.
D. the withdrawal of the senior key leadership nursing positions in the Department of Health thus, losing a national perspective on nursing issues and nursing influence on national health policy.
![Page 69: AILYN](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050711/5451c1c7b1af9f76248b4aa1/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Nursing is believed to have substantially unrealized power in all of the above situations and can exercise a forceful voice in making positive changes.
This potential, if focused effectively, and in a unified manner, can enable nurses to be extremely influential in addressing and articulating for a better and improved health care services and in maintaining nursing integrity.
![Page 70: AILYN](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050711/5451c1c7b1af9f76248b4aa1/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Integration
Is a means of bringing together all individual registered nurses in the country under one corporate body, parallel to the integration of the Philippine Bar (lawyers of the Philippines) which is under the supervision of the Supreme Court.
![Page 71: AILYN](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050711/5451c1c7b1af9f76248b4aa1/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
The Integrated Registered Nurses of the Philippines (IRNUP) has direct relationship with the PRC-BON since the later, by the virtue of R.A 7164. has official responsibility to oversee nursing development in the country.
![Page 72: AILYN](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050711/5451c1c7b1af9f76248b4aa1/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
The Principle That Guide IRNUP
The direct tie-up of IRNUP with the PRC-BON begets a national perspective on nursing and health related issues, and IRNUP will serve as the official national and regional coordinator for nurses and nursing.
![Page 73: AILYN](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050711/5451c1c7b1af9f76248b4aa1/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
IRNUP will establish a horizontal system of organized structure, instead of the old hierarchical system, where the members are the key people to influence rather than to govern.
![Page 74: AILYN](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050711/5451c1c7b1af9f76248b4aa1/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
The Creation of IRNUP Finally Came About
In early 1995, PRC-BON called meeting of the representatives of various nursing organizations and discussed how best they could pool together their efforts and the respective association’s thrusts to enhance and make way for relevant and effective nursing practice in this country.

This signaled the creation of IRNUP which was officially born on December 28, 1995 at the Lung Center of the Philippines.

These women voluntarily ministered to the wounded and the sick among the fighting forces.
