by sarahlou Dec 5, '04Hi there
I am a newly qualified Adult RN. My family have recently moved to the Costa Blanca area and have informed me that there are English hospitals that need English nurses. My partner and i have 3 children and would be relying on me to be the main wage earner. Is there anyone out there who can give me any information on where to begin in finding a job in the hospitals. I am embarking on learning spanish which i presume is necessary even in an English hospital. I would be grateful for any help in which direction i need to take.
Many thanks

- Dec 5, '04 by suzanne4The first thing that you will need to do is get a license that allows you to practise as a nurse in Spain. I recommend that you check with their equivalent of a Board of Nursing. More than likely you will be required to take a licensing examination in Spanish, just as you would if you went to any other country and wished a licnese there.
Good luck.....please let us know how it works out for you............ - Dec 6, '04 by sarahlouQuote from suzanne4Hi Suzanne, That is a big help so thankyou for that.
