  1. American nurse looking abroad

    They are definitely not open to Americans in the UK.
  2. Moving to Ireland to work as a nurse

    Don't do it. It's not worth the stress, the significant decrease in pay, the withering away of your skills, or an adaptation program where you work as a NA.
  3. So happy for you Uk Gal!!!!
  4. Job market still dire?

    Forgive me if this has become a case of one place is better than another. I can only speak of my entire experience here, not just in healthcare. And that is the truth that I live every day. Your experience will be different than mine. This is a forum...
  5. 072bomi, I work bank HCA...and it is one of the most soul destroying experiences. I am under the old system and just finished course. I am disgusted and am on track to go back to the U.S. in a bit. This place ain't worth nothing. I am MSN graduate a...
  6. As I work for no money, while I complete the contact hours for the NM.c, under the old system, and newly qualified nurses talk to me like crap....and have no idea about pathophisilogy (that's another story)....I realize, this move really isn't worth ...
  7. Job market still dire?

    Don't do it ashschu! Whatever means don't do it. I too am a U.S./UK citizen who trained in America. The NMC process is a nightmare and can take up to a year or more. You are treated very badly if you are perceived as foreign. The level of training i...

  9. Yes you do. Any course work related to nursing at both, bachelors and graduate level, should be complete the training form.
  10. Hi Daisy67.... You might have to scour your university's website for this information. For me, my university had a specific policy...named credit-hour policy. There is also a link on the U.S. education (Ed.gov) website that explains the credit system...
  11. Me too. This process is taking me to my breaking point. Good luck to all of us!
  12. State level should be sufficient. No matter which level you chose, you will be finger printed. On the FBi website, they have a list of certified vendors to go to in your local area....then the info is forwarded to FBI for checks. It takes like one we...
  13. Go to your local police station...and get the state background check. There are other companies that assist with nation wide checks, like we did for nursing school.
  14. No they do not. You need to follow up at least every other week.
  15. The NMC was encouraging me to switch to the new system, but I chose not once I realized that I neede to re-submit everything. I am so disgusted with this process. I am awaiting to take the OnP course....and add to that another hurdle of finding a cli...
