nurse in turkey

[yema kim]

hi everyone.

i am korean and majoring nursing in my country.

i want to become a nurse in turkey

but this is too hard to get information about how to be a nurse in turkey as a foreigner.

i will drop out my korean university and go to the turkey for new admission.

i want to know about process of being a nurse in turkey.

for example,

in order to get nurse license,

we have to take an examination after university graduation in korea.

and i wonder whether foreigner can take a turkey's nurse license exam or not.

I heard that foreigners in the Philippines is not eligible for philippines's nurse license exam.

Thanks for reading it. I wish you have a good luck.

Are you fluent in medical Turkish or Turkish?

If an offer sounds too good to be true, it likely is. Why on earth would they want to prepay you for a contract? This defies logic.

i want to know more information about this hospital

[jespher]

Yes there is a hospital name as ozel but then when i checked the tel/fax no. on the website it is Not the same on the details they sent.also there website it is not available.another is that,why is it that the human resources in charges only address himself as mr. Erdem and not in complete name.

[jespher]

Sounds like a scam aimed at nurses desperate to work.

[sara-attallah]

you are right about that i told you it is the same contract so i want to thank you

[kenanoren]

I just called the hospital's HR department. They don't know about a Mr. Erdem and they're not hiring foreign nurses. I e-mailed them this discussion's link so they can read as well.

This is clearly a scam.

I'm a Turkish nurse who lives and work as an RN in The States. As a Turkish nurse with Turkish and USA experience I would suggest you to think twice before you go to work in Turkey. The only good think to be nurse in Turkey it's very easy once you graduate from a nursing school you can work as a nurse anywhere you are accepted. There is no licensure for nursing. Which lower the quality care.

There is no job security unless you sign a contract which they don't usually apply for nurses. The pay is low and if you work overtime you get normal pay and not overtime pay, the cost of living is high specially if you think to live in Istanbul. There are not many policy, procedures and regulation or nursing standards. Some private hospitals have some standards but not high as Europe or The States. Also you are not protected by law against discrimination if you are over 30 years old you might not even get hired.
