New here and need some advice...

Hi all! This is great forum!! Well... I'm new here and I'm from Finland (PN student until October 6th) and I have thinking to go to work to England sometimes... Can I work there as practical nurse? I have heard that I can't but maybe someone here can tell me the truth :) And everything else advices are welcome :) Sorry my english, I do my best

Hi and welcome

Best bet is to read this link from NMC our governing body and requirements for a nurse in the EU. This will be able to let you know if your qualification is acceptable
