I post this before about the Re-Entry Program for Nurses,but i still have questions,so please anyone help me..... I recently pass the NCLEX-RN here in U.S. but i have this anxiety working since it very much different from the country where i practiced plus it has been more than 8 years since i practiced bedside care for the reason that i become a Public Health Nurse so the set up is really different.... Now i enrolled my self in a Re-Entry Program for Nurses my question is has anyone here done or know about this program?How is this done because according to the coordinator i need to pass the classroom program before i go on clinicals which i really need.Please anyone help me i really wanted to work and be a safe nurse is my decision to enter this program is good?How this program work?Thank you

Do you actually have a license to practice as an RN in the US? That is needed before you can even take a refresher program, or a program like the one that you want. Reason that I am asking is that if you do not have a SSN#, then you may not be issued a license by some states and that is needed for these programs.

It is like being back in school and working under a preceptor. Each program is different, suggest that you discuss this with the program that you are considering. They should be able to give you all of the information that you require.
