If you want to work in another country, you need to go elsewhere besides the US Virgin Islands as it is a United States territory. I took an assignment at Roy Lester Schneider hospital in St. Thomas as an RN for a few months and it was a real eye opener. Things were very antiquated.....dangerously so. Furthermore, it was even more dangerous because instead of acknowledging their shortcomings, they gave off the impression that they were just as good as anyone else by bragging about their JCAHO certification, etc (For the first time ever in 2004!).........and I have no idea how they got that! It made me realize that all the hospitals here in the states have nothing to worry about when JCAHO comes! lol! If you go, don't let ANYTHING surprise you........ From my experience, I wouldn't be surprised if they were still using copper kettles or open drop ether!
