There are many facilities but you need to be much more specific. What specialty? Which area of the state? Where did you train and what type of experience do you have? What type of visa do you currently have for the US, if you have one?

Hi can you please tell me more about aldatech? I am thinking right now to use an agency to help me in processing my papers to speed up everything to work in US. I am planning to get a license in Michigan but their require CGFNS, so maybe i go NY BON because i read so much info getting a license at NY is a bit easier. Thanks

Hi,
Are you a UK nurse? Just asking because if you are, an agency will not help you speed up your process. In my opinion (and I'm sure others will back me up) an agency slows you down. You'll get things done quicker by yourself. Sorry to sound negative but I would definitely advise you to think about applying independently.

If you are planning on working in Michigan any time during the next five years, you will need CGFNS. You cannot endorse to Michigan in the first five years without having taken the CGFNS exam. There is no way around that.

hello! thanks for the response. as you asked i am RN from Philippines, but i live here in Canada and i am RPN. And i also passed NCLEX -PN in Michigan and got licensed. I Didn't get Canadian RN because i still need refresher course and cost me $$$. The reason i want to use agency a want to speed up working to US, but you said they slow you down and much better do it by myself. This agency will arrange my NCLEX application and when i passed they going to help me with the immgration process with my family, they have their short cut to do it as they said, i wish that was all true, and now i am having a second thought. Please is their anybody have experience tru agency? please i need more info to make up my mind because i am so despirate... Thanks so much.

Hello again

My comments were really directed towards using an agency from here in the UK. I have no experiences or dealings with agencies in the US so it would be unfair of me to comment. It may well be that agencies in the US are very good, I really don't know. I wish you luck whichever way you go.

Hi: I don't know really what you'd like to know about Aldatech. You can visit their web site at Aldatech.com It's all explained in the web site
This Agency is the one that worked for me, but it might not be useful for you, I don't know. I think each one has to search, each case is different. In my case I had other offers from other Agencies, but they were not what I was looking for.
I would advise you to search the web, send your resume to every agency that you find, and then wait for their responses. Each Agency has different offers to make.
In my case I have also search the web looking for Hospitals and Healthcare facilities, and even though many people in this page said that Hospitals usually sponsor foreign nurses, I couldn't find one that would hire me.
If I can help you, don't hesitate in asking. GOOD LUCK!!!
