need some help

I think you need to clarify with the CRPNBC as to whether you are qualified to work as an RPN (registered psychiatric nurse). Sounds strange to be told you qualify to work as an RPN when you seem to have experience as an RN

. Good luck

Hi to all,

Im new to Canada.I worked in India and Ireland as RN.But here the assessment of CNO says Im not quqlified enough to work as a RN.They gave me an option to work as a RPN.Ihad sent again to get assessed as RPN.Now i have some doubts.Can somebody clarify them.Plssssssssss.

1.I desparately wanted to upgrade. How can i do RN

2.What is ur opinion.Is my decision to work as a RPN is right at this time.(i opted that bcoz of my financial condition)

3.Wat will b d difference in salary scale betwn RN and RPN.(7yrs experience)

4.do RPN get all benefits as RN.

5.Is der` ny sites for me to refer the job responsibility of RPN.

Im sorry im going on asking qns.I have noone to clarify my doubts.

Your inputs on these issues will b grately appreciated. Thanks in advance.

thanks, i sure missed that part, i guess i have bc on my mind. sorry pavi, disregard that. no wonder it seemed strange to me.

you missed the part where the op referred to cno... the college of nurses of ontario in ontario, an rpn is a registered practical nurse, rather than the more commonly accepted registered psychiatric nurse. so pavi's questions are actually quite appropriate. s/he needs to know if s/he'll make enough to live on, have benefits and so on. i can't help with that information, though, because it's been a lifetime since i lived in ontario.
