NMC Registration

[Dzidzan, BSN, RN]

Good day!

Can I register to NMC in UK without any third party (eg agencies, recruitment companies, etc) just by myself?

I am quite confused about this. I am trying to search a thread that contains information regarding this matter.

Replies from nurses who made their registration by themselves is greatly appreciated.

thank you.

Yes you can, you would need to contact the NMC directly and apply that way

Look for the overseas nurses section

Yes you can register with NMC without using an agency

Thank you for responding!

If I am eligible, I will have to take the ONP right? Approximately How much will it cost me? I tried searching that as well.

I have already taken IELTS and already have the minimum length of practice despite the scarcity of jobs here in the Philippines. However, I would like to search for hospitals that would allow us to render free service and give us a certificate in return. Is the situation here in the Philippines valid enough to explain the gap in our working experience certificates?

ONP is held at accredited sites and costs will vary, best thing to do is approach them and ask about costs.

You will not find a hospital that will render free service and you are aware on how hard it is to get a work permit for the UK? The UK now caps skilled workers and preference has to be given to UK and EU first and with unemployment still high in the UK and as I posted in another thread Wales are having big issues and closing departments and hospitals to save money expect this to happen elsewhere in the UK

Oh goodness, it is nearly 10 years since I posted this. But here I am again trying to gain registration in the UK.
