I did do my Paeds on a ward, as well as in the community as I recall. I am going with an agency, all is done and sorted now, after 3 long years of waiting!!

Think my programme must have been ok, as I met all the board requirements, have done the NCLEX, got the Visa screen, and am just waiting on settling things here before I leave to take up my new job in the USA. Just got worried when I saw this post, can I breath easy now??

I too did Project 2000, and am going to the USA to work later on this year. At no point have I been told that my training was not sufficient, as we had to do ?300 hours in each speciality, which meets the requirements I believe. At no stage have I been told my transcripts dont meet the requirements, am I wrong in thinking this??

Nice!!

:roll We could all be rich!!

I found this site by accident!! I was Googling about working in America, and one of the links was to here!! I love Google, you never know where it will take you

Here here!! Couldnt agree more!! Whilst yes, nursing can be a stressful job, long hours, bad pay etc etc, I cannot think of a more rewarding profession. However, I honestly believe that nursing is something that you are 'born' to do. I am not sure if that is the correct word, but in my experience, you can soon spot the people whose hearts are not in the job. I cannot imagine doing something I hated day in day out. Nursing gets enough of a bashing, its nice to see the positives sometimes :yelclap:

I have always wanted to be a nurse, from when I was very little! I even had one of those little outfits with the cape and everything!! Its a great job, and like any other it has its down side, but there is nothing else I would ever see myself doing. It has enabled me to meet some fantastic people, and travel the world doing so.
