Hi Becca!:) I think I can help you with some of your questions. I just received my nursing pin from the NMC and I'm also a US to UK nurse (although I am basically a new grad as I only worked in the US for 4 months before moving)
The CBT is very ...
I am not Alaina but I can answer your question:) Your manager will not need to know anything and will not need to fill our any paperwork. The NMC will need to verify your character with your state's board of nursing. The only way your employer will n...
Thank you Alaina! Yes, I have definitely noticed that I will have to be very meticulous about my studying for the OSCE. No I havent been able to schedule my exam so I will definitely take Northern Ireland into consideration! As I go on into studying ...
I was trained in an English-speaking country so I only had to prove that my training was in English. I did this with my university's official transcript!:)

Hi Kaitlyn! I read your posts and saw that you work in A&E. I'm a US nurse and I'm interviewing for a large A&E in the UK in a few weeks. I'm assuming you probably had a skype interview? I'll be asking for one since I'm in the US right now. H...
Quick question for anyone who has gone through the process of registering with the NMC... I have to provide a police clearance certificate. I've lived in one state for my whole adult life, is it okay to get a state background check with fingerprints ...
I received an email from the NMC about 2 or 3 weeks ago saying that I am eligible to register and that I should get an email from Pearson Vue to arrange my test. But I have not received any further instruction from Pearson Vue:( I tried to go on Pea...
