Does anyone know?

I think there are some hiring people at agencies who will be picky about your experience and others who will give you credit for it. It just depends on the individuals involved; you will have to find out by applying for jobs and see how you are treated. You would probably have no problem getting hired at agencies who are willing to hire those with absolutely no patient care experience. These agencies will look upon you as an experienced health care worker. Sorry this is a roundabout answer, but you will probably see both attitudes when you start to apply. Good luck.
