what countries have the best pay scales?

[hamble1968]

hi. i'm a newly qualified mental health nurse (just one years experience).

unfortunately the pay here where i live (in ireland) is pitiful, and house prices have escalated recently.

so i've thought about nursing abroad for a couple of years to get a decent sized deposit.

could you'all please let me know what countries have the best pay rates. i'd consider any country.

i don't really want to move abroad for two years, but it's the only way i can get the money together.

thanks in advance.

Hi and welcome to the site

The problem you may find you have is whether your training meets that countries requirments. For the US you may find it hard as training is required to be general and current training does not always meet requiremtns for US and the only way to check is CES with CGFNS .Plus there are currently no visas available and after going through CGFNS and state BON whilst waiting will take you anything from 7 months upwards before you can sit NCLEX and work in the US. If you want check out the International forum and have a read and look round. There are threads on working in France as well as UEA plus what to do to work in the US.
