Hello Fellow Canadian Nurses;
I am a new grad nurse who graduated from a university program in Ontario. I initially became registered with the College of Nurses of Ontario and I decided to work in Quebec. My experience in obtaining a Quebec license by equivalence has been horrifying. I submitted my application at the beginning of August and it's still being processed 6 weeks later. No wonder there is a nursing shortage in Quebec. The nurses are there and willing to work but the regulating body puts obstacles in our way.
I'm wondering if there are more people out there who have had problems dealing with the Order of Nurses of Quebec. If so, please let me know because I'm interested in hearing your experiences.
Thanks,
Noon
