NMC and CGFNS problems

Good morning

Have any UK trained/registered nurses had any issues with the NMC finding out who to contact regarding filling out request for license/registration paperwork? Spoke to a NMC representative on the phone who told me they don't need to fill the paper work in as the requesting party can openly search me on the register? I won't be able to progress if this document isn't processed. Just wondering if anyone has been in a similar situation before I contact the CGFNS.

 

Many thanks

Hi Everyone,

I would just like to encourage every UK RN trying to do the move to being a US RN that it can be DONE.

I have just received my CES Report exactly two month after I paid for the report to be done. Although, I paid for the expeditED review and received my CES report two business days after all my reports were 'under review'

The major boost I had was my A & E placement I think. I was able to use those hours for the areas we usually are deficient in.
 

 

Hi. 

So which BON did you apply for and did you have any clinical hours that you were deficient in ?

No I wasn't deficient luckily

Hi Esther140, can I please ask how you manage to not be deficient, was this because A and E covered all areas including child? Or are you already registered in all areas? 

I think a lot of us are registered in either one/two areas of Nursing and having to do make up hours, however it's quite hard to find where to do these hours. So I'm just wondering how you achieved this? 

 

Many thanks

Hi Esther, I have read through your comments here, all I can say his congratulations and thanks for giving hope to others.  I am also a UK trained RN and I ensured I had over 120 clinical hours in all fields of nursing  but Texas BON came to me that I have 30 hours deficiency in Obsteterics. How do you think I can resolve this? I wrote reflections while I was on spoke placements in Obstetrics and in my validation portfolio as well. Can these reflections be used as my theory hours in maternal/child health nursing please? Can I also link up with you as my email address is [email protected] Thank you.
