AnE Uk Nurse wants to transfer to USA

Published

Hello Nurses,

I qualifed 2015 and i remember going on a MT placement and labour ward placement but not peads placement but lectures on peads. I currently work IN ED and i am required to work in peads and have i been sent on various training on peads. I also care for Pregnant women everytime. So my question is will i be able to use those hours if i am

short of hours instead of going back to university?

thank you

Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.

If you can get copies of transcripts to show hours spent on the courses the BON may accept them

Thank you for ur reply

I would say why re invent the wheel...many UK/EU nurses on here have done this transfer successful and shared their stories on here. Follow their recipe and soon you will be enjoying the American pie. It is a long process that involves waiting, patience, perseverance and more waiting on steroids;) .... either way Good Luck!

what we see very regularly with UK Nurses is a deficiency in Obstetrics and/or Paeds due to how training has been done for over a decade. Some universities will include Paeds but not always Obstetrics due to the UK training of midwives

Thank u for the reply, i started this post cos i couldnt see any post about UK Nurses
