interstate5 thanks a lot.My first choice is to have a refresher course but I don't know where to start .In the Phil. they told me no refresher course bec .I have already license.If I go home to Phil. and practice again nursing are hospitals allowing me to do the job for I know nurses is so many specially these days.Can you suggest any best way? Thank you hope you can help me.

Anybody can advice? I need an honest advice,If you're in my situation , what's the best decision ,I need to move right now 'cause of my age 47.(BSN RN '81,practiced my proffession 3years for long past years,after that I didn't practice nursing but contineously renewing my license up to now.I've been reciding for 19 years in Japan as permanent resident ,I have a caregiver certification since 2004 in japan but I didn' apply for it for some reason.Now I'm really confused,some adviced me to be back in nursing ,there's still as big chance but I really need to refresh my mind before taking Nclex or any nursing test;I'm planning to go to Phil. but what action should I do, is there a refresher course there or is the review conducted there enough to refresh my mind for the test?;If I go to Canada as caregiver first and then take their refresher there and take their RN test (cause they don't consider our license in Phil.)To go to another country from Japan as tourist is easier than from phil.but I'm confused ,really confused which is the best plan and way for me, Let's say a last decision to be carefully plan anybody can help?Thanks.

I'm out of nursing for long time , I'm from asia,any better way to update my nursing profession as refresher course there in US? I have my license always renew when time for renewal,but doing different job not related in nursing. Can you advice me?
