Thank you so much for all of your help! I think contacting the NMC will be my next step.

So I looked at what a HCA does and it sounds more like a CNA position here. Who you would find most likely in an assisted living or senior living community. I don’t take what you said rudely at all, cause honestly any help is needed and wonderful at this point. This is what I’m certified in: Course includes areas of study in Patient Care, Vital Signs, EKG (ECG), Venipuncture, and CPR, Anatomy and Physiology, Infection Control, Emergency Procedures, Knowledge of Behavioral Health and Patients with Special Needs including Legal and Ethical Responsibilities. I also have work experience in endocrinology, telemetry, and clinical decision. I’ve looked at the NHS website for more information about the positions and still feel like a Nursing Associate is more on par with what I do. Look forward to hearing from you

I’m a Patient Care Tech and have been trying to find information about transferring to the NHS in England from the US and eventually pursing a nursing career. Was wondering if you may have any information or even know someone with experience in this situation. My friends don’t have any connections in the NHS that I can ask. Any tips or even websites would be really appreciated! I’ve looked at the nursing associate duties and it’s on par with what I do now. I understand that titles and such would change and I’m willing to put in the work to be correctly certified there if it comes down to that. Just for more information, I also have a bachelors in biology, have hospital experience, and am looking at getting extra certification as a EKG (ECG)/ Monitor Tech if that helps at all. Looking forward to hearing from you. Any help or places for me to possibly check out would be amazing!
