hi, i'm sorry i don't know you, but you seem sooo excited, so i feel excited for you...LOL! i am a US RN with over 28 years experience and will be traveling to great britain in may,staying for 1 month...if i like it will give serious consideration to becoming eligible to work in the UK...is the process really grim and long? in reading some of the threads, it appears that going through an agency in not the way to go...is this true? should i contact the NMC and study the process and in your experience are there any shortcuts to the process? thanks...and congratulation:balloons:
