Filipino nurse dilemma for Canadian Dream.

Published

Hello guys,

After reading many informations on this site espicially the previous old ones,it helps me a lot.However, i want to ask what is the nursing job update for International RNs.I mean the present situation in any Canadian provinces about nursing jobs,Becasue most of the informotion that i read posted last year.Hence,i have no job offers.I have not decided what province that i will apply.But based on my reseach on the previous post maybe N.S or Mannitoba.Since i am married,i need to consider my Family welfare also.My Canadian Ielts teacher told me here in Davao City that Quebec is a nice place to start,because of the benefits you can receive from the government.

For starters,i am still on the process for my visa immigration applications,and just waiting for my IELTS-GT results this coming Friday,and after that i will my submit my papers to the embassy and I do it on my own without any help from any private companys.I just rely to other people experiences and also with this site info.

Since i am targeting to work in Canada,I have to take the IELTS-Academic exam.I am little bet worried because when i check about the topics about CRNE or SEC assessment, i have no subject about Gerontology during my great nursing student days.I am working for 4 years now, and the last time I read nursing books was 2007.

Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.

Quebec will require you to learn and be fluent in French. Not all provinces require SEC or some form of assessment. NS may require assessment but a lot will depend on your application to the college of RN's for NS and what your transcripts state.

Most Canadians don't target a province to live in, for what they can gain financially from the provincial government. Your taxes pay for those benefits.
