Canadian Perm. Resident LPN Wishes To Return Home

Published

Hello and greeting to all, this is my first post on allnurses. I am an LPN/LVN with 16 years experience, (acute, LTAC, research, corrections,ACLS,PALS) presently living in Houston ,Tx . I graduated from Vancouver Comm. College, worked casual at Lion's Gate Hospital, N.Van then to Toronto- Humber River Regional (Finch) stepdown, and St. Joseph's MC ED Dept, before leaving to US to "expand my experience" as an LPN . I reallly, really miss Canada, my home and wonder about the job market there for nurses. Heck I'd even work at The Bay or Tim Horton's to be back home. I've learned much in the US - but as far as I'm concerned- no place is perfect but, no place is like home. Be proud to be part of the"EH SQUAD". Any suggestions for recruitment agencies guys ? Re-re location is expensive. Thanks and have a great summer everyone. : )

Where in Canada are you looking to move? You will not find recruitment agencies for Canada.

Permanent Resident. Does that mean you are not a Canadian Citizen but what used to be called a landed immigrant?

If not a citizen you may have problems with being outside of the country for a prolonged period.

BC for lack of a better word sucks when it comes to work.

You should read this information on Canadian permanent residence before you make any decisions about returning to Canada. Understand permanent resident status
