    Just RN until it has been verified and with the CGFNS that can take a long time. They are only interested in the RN part

    A Bachelor's degree in palliative care is not equivalent to the BSN in the US and will not give you the same title.

    The US wants the generalist training in all areas, and will not consider it the same as the BSN.
