How to become RN in British Columbia?

092084

Hi. I have a friend who already been made eligible to take CRNE..All she needs to do now is to find an employer to sponsor her. May I ask where did you find an employer? Are you doing it on your own or through an agency? Hope you could help my friend on this. Thank you

there are a lot of hospitals here in philippines who offered ICU training. In my case, i underwent my ICU training here in Davao Medical Center for 6 months. Exposed to adult ICU's, CCU, Cathlab, PICU

wow, looks like you will get there anytime soon. Any information on the processing duration for you to get to Canada? how much time will the eligibility for the CRNE be valid or does it even have an expiration date? thank you. With your posts, I actually became very much interested now, even without the agency I am planning to contact. However, as I browse the skilled worker site, I read that the experience they are only crediting are those that are with pay. Are trainings credited for that? Sorry, im just new with this thing and I know, i still need a lot of readings but any help will be very much appreciated. thanks

thanks, breech. does one need to be an employee of the hospital to go through the training? was it expensive? also, if you don't mind, can you please share a list of other hospitals you know offering ICU training, especially those closer to Manila or within Manila?

cyberfanatic,

once you've made eligible by CRNBC, you are given 2 years to comply the licensing requirements which includes taking the CRNE.

When it comes to experience, its up to the employer how much one you get before they will hire you. Some requires 2-3 yrs.

Good luck!
