Re: Photo Gallery: Nurses of Singapore
[quote=suzanne4]To work in any of the countries over there, you need to be fluent in their language, as well as pass the nursing boards in their language. And then you have immigration issues to deal with. It is goign to be much harder than you think to work at one of the local hospitals in any of the countries there.Singapore is actually one of the more expensive places to live in SE Asia, and the nursing salaries are nothing like the US.
I have taken the exam myself and it is in English and will always be in English. Singapore is an ENglish speaking country which is also an ex-British colony. Pay is not very rewarding and when compared in US$, it is way way behind. Starting basic pay for nurses in SIngapore is only about 1400 SIngapore dollars, therefore it is only about 940 USD. Considering the cost of living there. The pay is just almost enough only to thrive.
