regretful

I'm so frustrated. I'm trying to get my RN license back in BC (Surrey) and have been approved for a sponsorship from a local health authority, unfortunately I'm required to obtain a 5 million/occurrence professional liability and third party liability insurance citing local health authority as an extra insured. CNPS lawyer says it doesn't exist, private insurance broker says there is no such insurance (he tried over 10 days and all insurance companies told him the coverage was enough through CNPS). To do the supervised practice experience, I'm required to provide documents that don't exist.... anyone heard of this? I will have 10 million $ /occurrence with a provisional license once I get a sponsorship (ie if I get this ? non existent insurance). Anyone know where I can to a supervised practice experience in greater Vancouver, preferably Surrey/New West/Burnaby where my BCCNP/CNPS liability insurance is enough? VCH doesn't allow supervised practice experiences and FHA is the one asking for these two extra liability insurances.

No, I was weighing my options: NCAS vs supervised practice. I've decided to go with supervised practice (Canadian trained nurse).

Thanks so much for this. That's exactly why I've hesitated. The advisor I spoke with at BCCNP said that NCAS would be my best option but I've had a bad gut feeling about it. It appears faster but on the contrary I believe it would take much longer due to possible courses to take and this may completely discourage me to return to practice. I'm leaning more towards the supervised practice option in a big hospital ICU setting.

Akaur212: did you pass NCAS?

I'm a former ICU nurse, last licensed in 2013 in Alberta, been a nurse since 1986, worked ICU/CCU since 1995. Because it's been over 5 years and I don't have the hours for BC, I have to either take a refresher course at Thompson University (about 17K and complete in less than 2 years), take supervised practice experience (400 hours no pay, in less than 6 months, find a preceptor, write up a super complicated plan) or take the NCAS route (2000$). I'm so confused. Has any Canadian nurse been in this situation and passed the NCAS? ie given BC license after NCAS? or is it just a cash grab to force you to take more courses from Langara and do it all under 2 years. I just got news of my options last Friday but I knew it would be this way, so I've been preparing reading books. I'm more worried about the lab component not the computer one.
