3. How to pay NMC application fee for overseas nurses

   helricha replied to boardshorts's topic in Immigration

   My hours were quite a bit lower than what their supposed requirement is. Granted I did my education in a different country than you but they certainly are not that strict about the hour suggestion. Take a look at mine: nursing clinical hours - 1352 n...

   helricha replied to max72's topic in International

   Oh dear. My opinion was not directed at your comment. I'm not even sure that I read your comment per say but just the jist of the entire idea, as I have heard it before from many other people. Sorry if you felt that it was directed at you at all as...

7. Is IELTS a must for nursing registration in UK?

   helricha replied to max72's topic in International

   I understand the annoyance with having to pay $185 to take a language test when you clearly speak the language. However, the IELTS exam that is required is the academic version. There may be people who can speak English and understand it but doing it...

8. Nurse wanting to work overseas using fiance visa

   helricha replied to glioblastoma's topic in International

   While everyone is entitled to their own opinion, there are ones who like to post just to get other people wound up. It seems that IMHO the best thing to do for these people is to just ignore them as it is not worth anyone's energy to amuse them. Laug...

    No, I have not heard anything. I did ring the NMC today to check and see if they have received everything in the post. They still have yet to receive my training form, but I did not expedite it when I posted it. Should be there by next week, and I wi...

12. Why do countries in demand of nursing require nurses to have experience?

    helricha replied to glioblastoma's topic in International

    Simple point without a lecture: Experience makes a world of difference. Until you are the sole person responsible for your actions and you have to think on your own, sometimes in the blink of an eye, it doesn't matter how many exams you've taken or p...

    Interested if there are any US trained nurses who have recently successfully registered with the NMC with their 3-year BSN degree? I'm moving to Portsmouth but if it turns out that I can't get registered with the NMC then I may have to move closer to...
