Hello Mikaela,

I'm undecided where to go, which is better place for a nurse is it in US or Canada?Can a RN in our country have the possibility to be an RN in Canada,what are the possible ways to do; more study?Is it easier than US? I heard that most nurses there are only partimers ,how true is it?

Hello Laine,

Are caregivers allowed to study for RN in Canada;Is it even within the contract or after having a permanent residence;Is foreign nurse treated good there?

Dear Suzanne,

Inorder to take a refresher course in US ,do I need to pass first NECLEX?Is there an actual review for NECLEX in any state of USA such as California;can I go directly using a tourist visa?Planning to go from Japan to US if possibleI'm really eager to start at the best way.Thanks.

Dear lots of luv,

I'm also new here,and away from our home country and so eager to go to US to work.You're so lucky if you have relatives there who can help you or can look for a direct sponsor not like me I have no one to contact as relative;Its good I found this allnurses to know everything I want to ask cause I feel I'm alone in an Island here in Japan I can't contact anybody here lots of wasted time.I'm thinking of resigning to my current job now not related to nursing if only can give me best way to do.Thanks to suzanne and everybody for I'm having a self- confidence back to nursing.Please do send more informations.lots of luv hope to hear good news from you.I seldom open this computer cause of lots of work to do.I guess I have give chance for my nursing carreer.Goodluck!!!!
