i like to be totally independent and make decisions on my own so i should be md but i like being a nurse and flexibility comes with it. time and money not an issue right now. i just have to make a decision. thanks :)

i have a dilemma and don't know what to do. I have been accepted by crna program and also a medical school in Caribbean. i checked the school and most students who graduate from it end up in family medicine. they both have pros and cons i just cannot make my mind.

I don't know anything about it. I would contact bon of ca. . Congrats for your green card

i would like to tell something all the nurses who want to immigrate to US. do NOT come to USA unless you already have green card. Go to CANADA where you will be valued as an RN who can contribute to economy. Even thoug there is "shortage" in nursing still you wont get green card. Dont waste your time... Go to CANADA

in my experience prisons hiring nurses as long as they have pulse but it is very hard to get a hospital job with only prison experience.

good luck for finding a sponsor and a job. First, I dont think you can get green card based on employment. there is no enough visas left for nurses. But because you are a canadian, thru NAFTA you may get it. I know nurses who got sponsorship from hospitals but couldnt get green card because there arent enough visas. i would hire an immigration lawyer first. Secondly, job market is not good even for experienced nurses. i have applied 100s and 100s positons in NYC but nothing not even a damn phone call or an-email. if i were you i would work in canada first get some experience in ED, ICU, Tele after that if i could try to work in NY.

try prisons

i may get a job at Hunts point prison in Bronx. Does anyone know anything about this prison? thank you

i have bsn and i applied NYP but nothing so far.

I have applied 100s of jobs in nyc but i dont even have one interview yet. NYP has openings over 100, Mount sinai over 300 jobs for nurses but somehow i am not good for none of them!!!!. Nurse recuiters dont answer the phones or emails. what the heck is going on? Do i have to pay somebody to get a job? i also applied jobs in NJ,PA as well. Nothing

i had a friend whose grandmother went to school to be LPN age at 67 and she did it.

my dad is psychiatrist and always a good dr learns from nurses

get master degree in nursing so you can practice medicine and be a nurse at the same time.

if you werent smart you wouldnt have LVN after your name

it's hard to find a job for everyone. try to make yourself kind of unique. once i was told that i should learn sign language or spanish etc. you could also get some certifacations. these things will make your resume stronger and make you more desirable next to other person. Try prisons (very safe to work)
