Hi everyone,
I am a 3rd year nursing student from Sydney, Australia. I will be completeing my RN degree at the end of this year.
My boyfriend is planning to move to the UK to work at the end of this year and I am considering my options for being able to work oover there.
I am eligible for a british passport as my Dad was born in the UK, and I am working as an assistant nurse at the moment also, so I do have experience.
So I would be extremely grateful for any info about potential internships or preceptorships in the UK (preferrably London area) and how I would go about meeting requirements to work in the UK.
Thank you

First you need to get your UK passport
then with your australian license apply to the NMC to get it checked

be warned there is still a severe lack of jobs in the UK and new qualified posts are scare NHS trust may favor their own students and prably there are few private jobs.
