American RN trained in UK wanting NY licensure

Published

Specializes in Clinical Education, Major Trauma.

Hi all! I've got a bit of an unusual situation. I was born and raised in the US, but moved to the UK some years ago and did my degree in Adult Nursing here. I am currently in a senior position, working as a Clinical Nurse Educator in Major Trauma. My family and I are interested in moving to New York, and I was wondering what the process may be like for me. I am originally from California and understand that success there would be extremely difficult as a British-trained RN, due to concurrency issues and having education subject deficiencies. How does New York compare? Many thanks in advance.

Any board in the US will require you to be generalist trained.

Hello, have you gone through the process yet?
