Published

hi.. im just curious ... a nursing agency called me and they ask me if im willing to work as a PSW first because i dont have any experience as RPN in canada... the thing is im an internationally educated nurse i took the cprne and i did not have a psw certification here... is it ok acceptable for me to work as PSW then?? thanks!!

If you are hired and paid as an RPN (not a medical assistant or whatever) of course it counts.

There is a cosmetic clinic in my area that hires RPNs, so probably yes. Health assessments, vitals, injections, etc., are all things (and I'm sure there are more) that an RPN could do in a setting like this.

hello there allnurses... im just wondering if there is anyone here who works for an agency and accepts RPN jobs and PSW jobs at the same time? and do you work for multiple agencies? and lastly is there anyone who experienced some problem regarding NON-COMPETE agreements? thanks!!
