In what way are you meaning certified? If as a RN then you will need to meet board of nursing requirements for foreign trained nurse and pass NCLEX until you do that you can not work as a RN. The most you are looking at in a hospital is carer or tech and even then you would have to meet what ever requirements is needed for them jobs. If you are looking as a RN then I would check out the international forum found under the region tab above and see what sort of information you can find for your state to guide you.

Hope this helps

You may want to go to the Oklahoma Board of Nursing website and get in touch with them. Good luck! :typing

Contacting other Filipina nurses may give you some of the answers you need. State Board of Nursing is a must stop.
