Sure I will be intouch, so far a I do not have a solid confirmation with any schools in the states at present. There is a school in California which is very expensive they do offer courses for foreign RN so I've just decided to get a job snd gather the funds needed. If I do not get any confirmation for schools in NJ or NY I will fly to California to complete it. My board of nursing confirmed to me that I can do it anywhere provided I can supply the signed evidence.

Hi everyone, I'm an internationally trained UK-registered Paediatric Nurse with a second degree in Health Visiting. I'm now a U.S. green card holder and applying for RN licensure in New Jersey. After CGFNS review, the NJ Board of Nursing issued a deficiency letter requiring additional clinical hours in: Adult Medical – 30 hours Adult Surgical – 30 hours Maternity/Infant – 30 hours Psychiatric/Mental Health – 30 hours I've contacted many nursing schools in the U.S. and UK, but I keep getting rejected because I'm not enrolled in a full programme or they don't offer stand-alone clinical placements. I'm now willing to travel anywhere in the world to complete these hours as they have stated in my letter that it can be done anywhere in the world. My questions: Has anyone completed BON deficiency clinical hours outside the U.S.? Are there known bridging/refresher programmes or schools that accept international nurses? I trained 20 years ago and never expected to move to the U.S., otherwise I'd have chosen Adult Nursing. Any advice or personal experiences would be really appreciated. Thank you!
