2013 Senatorial Candidate got the Ire of Pinoy Nurse after her interview on "Pagsubok ng mga Kandidato". Later, Team PNOY Senatorial candidate Cynthia Villar apologizes to nurses for her "room nurse" comment on a debate program.
During the Senatorial forum on GMA News TV on February 23, host Solita Monsod asked Mrs. Villar to explain why, as chairman of the House committee on high education, she opposed the move to close nursing schools that the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) said did not meet minimum requirements to continue operations.

She told Monsod then that nurses did not need to finish their degree since they only wanted to become room nurses or caretakers.
"Actually, hindi naman kailangan ng nurse na matapos ang BSN (BS Nursing). Kasi itong mga nurses, gusto lang nilang maging room nurse,” Villar said in response.
“Taos-puso po akong humihingi ng paumanhin sa lahat ng mga nurse at kani-kanilang pamilya na labis na nasaktan sa aking kasagutan sa tanong na ibinato sa akin sa isang programa sa TV (I sincerely apologize to all the nurses and their families who were hurt by my response to the question I was asked on TV),” she posted on her Twitter account @cynthia_villar.
