I have nursing diploma from Bulgaria, got Visa Screen Certificate for USA. Do you think I will be accepted as an RN or just LPN in Canada?

Thank you in advance

Depends on the province, each one has different requirements now. You will have to have your credentials evaluated by the province that you are interested in.

I am planing to work in Ottawa, Ontario. I heard that CNA accepts diploma holders for RPN exam only. Is it true?
