osce ( observational structured clinical examination)

[guppawan]

Hi,

I am internationally trained nurse from India. I applied for registration as RN in college of nurses of Ontario Oct 2011. They took over a year and finally determined that my education/ experience is not equivalent to those of current graduates of Canadian nursing program. They have asked me to write Observational Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) and pass in order to show equivalency. My question is that have anybody else been asked to take OSCE exam and what to expect? Also what does the college consider while evaluating education as other nurses from my college have been given eligibility without fulfilling any other criteria or exam!!

What are the things needed to bring during the OSCE?

Bring a stethoscope, wear scrubs or a gown.. attend HFO info session (not required but i think its the best thing you can do to prepare for the OSCE). I passed the OSCE myself, not meaning to boast, but just saying that it is "beatable" and "doable" even for an IEN without Canadian experience such as myself in response to a comment a while ago.

Focus group research study on IEN in Ontario : Canadian Association of Schools of Nursing / Association canadienne des écoles de sciences infirmières (CASN / ACESI)

Anyone eligible for this study? This might be something that would give the regulators a better view of the problems encountered by IEN in the registration process.

Hi there peeps,

I came from the Philippines and will take the OSCE next year here in Ontario. I just want to know, for those who is done with OSCE, what book/s would you recommend? Also, what strategies you did or you think you should have done to help you pass OSCE.

Thank you so much and hoping for your response.

Hi I used 4 manuals to pass. They have all the summarized information you would need to succeed. You can email me at [email protected] and I can tell you more about it..

Hi Marvelous,

Hope you can share some info or strategies you did in passing OSCE. Will really appreciate it bigtime. I also emailed you and waiting for your response.

Thank you.
