7. Alberta LPN

   malaya replied to Pug Lover's topic in Canada

   may not seem right but it is true that capital health will be in the philippines next week to recruit 600 to 700 nurses. it is an awfully large number for a single recruitment event. weeding out the nurses that aren't ready for placement in your hosp...

12. Phil RN's as LPN

    malaya replied to purplehippo's topic in Canada

    to purple hippo i guess i should believe you because you have been insisting on the veracity of this information, but for your friend's sake suggest to her taking the lpn exam doing so will serve a lot of purpose. i feel bad for your friend and the ...

13. Phil RN's as LPN

    malaya replied to purplehippo's topic in Canada

    that news piece clarifies everything.... i believe they will have to take the lpn licensure exam as passing the rn nclex exam does not make reciprocity for an lpn license. that is what you should strongly suggest for them to do. an lpn license would ...

14. Phil RN's as LPN

    malaya replied to purplehippo's topic in Canada

    It is just that when I get sick, I would want a licensed nurse to care for me rather than someone who is not licensed. But if Capital Health deems they are equipped even without the license, then so be it. The major factor here anyway is ethical, saf...

15. Phil RN's as LPN

    malaya replied to purplehippo's topic in Canada
