In this country (USA) you will need a license. You cannot identify yourself as a nurse (of any kind) or practice nursing (of any kind) without a license issued by the state in which you intend to work. Have you applied to your state board of nursing?

I *think* it's supposed to be "Medical Surgical" nurse.

Again, I think.

Yeah I hope so too. I think perhaps she was going to be a nurse in the UK? I say this because of my very limited research on what a PIN is in regards to nursing and not ATMs...

So what country are we talking about. In the UK I have never heard of a medical social nurse and medical and surgical wards/units are separately run
