Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.

Moved to the Nurse Registration forum

You need CES report from CGFNS and that takes approx 4 months to do. English exam will vary from state to state but check out link in previous post that should say. NCLEX is a national exam and every nurse wanting to work as a nurse must sit and pass it. You will only get eligibility to sit once you meet requirements buy the state BON
