Hi everyone.Pls i do need information about how to gain employemnt in ireland.I have just received a decision letter from an bord stating i need to do a 6 weeks adaptation to be fully registered with them. Is there anyone with information on current employment opportunities and how can i get a place for my adaptation.Just need information regarding how to go about getting my adaptation done and maybe getting a job as i do want to be fully registered with the Bord even if i will not work with my PIN number immediately.Is this possible?if not what options do i have . Thanks.

hi every one,thanks for this information.i am about to start my onp and need information in case i need a student nurse visa to do ONP.I have gotten a school and was told i would be contacted if my visa can be used. Which agency helped you Gailmaries to process all u mentioned.i have critical care nursing experience and hope that i would gain employment with this since its still on the occupational shortage list.i need information abt how to get a student nurse visa i case i am told i can only do ONp with it. Thanks

Hi there,been a long time that i've been on site.pls i would like to know if its the same overseas nurses programme that is mandatory for all overseas nurses,if so how much does it cost and how can i secure a place .I am awaiting my decision letter from the NMC and trying to secure a place for ONP b4 then. :nurse: Abiola07

Hello,congrats to those of you who have just received your PIN from the NMC.I have been stucked cuz of IELTS but am hoping that i will make it when i see my last exam result in Jesus name.I learnt that ONP can only be done with a student visa,is that true. I would like to encourage those looking for a job ,never give up.There are still jobs out there yet to be filled.Just keep making research about available site,some friends got NHS jobs and had permit with it,so don't give up.Pray and let God fix you up.

Hi,i am thinking along this line too.My documents are with CRNBC and am awaiting their response but am also considering registering with another province if i wont have to go through the lengthy registration process.I was informed that one can transfer registration to other provinces.How true is this?I would suggest you give CARNA a call and hear what they have to say about registering with them based on your CRNBC eligibility.:cheers:

WELCOME,NIKKI.DO CONTACT THE COLLEGE OF PSYCHIATRY NURSES OF BC AND LET THEM ASSESS YOUR ELIGIBILITY TO PRACTICE IN CANADA.:cheers:

You are right Fonenures, about the english requirement in Ireland.I just achieved the score and i have sent my documents and payment to An Bord Altranais today but i am not sure of the employment opportunities for this year since the HSE has set the target to employ within available resources.But however they plan it ,i am positve about getting a very good job by God's grace.I would appreciate if you could send me links to hospitals with modern facilities and standards in Ireland ,and probably any hospital i can apply to once i receive my decision letter:thankya:

Thanks,i have contacted the nursing board in ireland and will begin my registration this month by God's grace.I just need information about the employment opportunities in Ireland. Hope i get more replies to this.

hi,am also considering registering in Ireland and practising there as a nurse.what i know is that english exam must be written for those outside of EU and once u meet up with the english then u can apply fr the pack to be sent to u which begins the usual processing.Also ,about the employment opportunities ,there has been a ban in employment for months but it has just been lifted but i do not know the job opportunities now bcos the HSE target is to provide employment within available resources.I hope this little information helps.

Hi, I wrote ielts and achieved a score of 7.5 overall and in 3 modules but had 6.5 in reading which was rejected by NMC-UK.I am considering registering with An Bord,Ireland.I would like to know what the current job prospect is in Ireland now that the employment freeze has been lifted.Is it worth it registering with ABA(Nursing Board).I have just received the registration pack and thinking of registering but i need some directions on how to get a job and obtain a work permit.How long does the registration process take in Ireland . Also,i would like to know what the standard of living is and the salary scale as compared to the UK.Can the healthcare standard be compared with the standard in the UK. Thanks:cheers:

Thanks,doughminic,janfrn and suzanne4.All your contribution all well noted. I am familiar with the process and where i have to write CRNE,i was just not sure abt the cred.assessments mentionaed by my friend. Am awaiting a reply from crnbc for eligibility to practise in canada but the info about the duration (close to a year) is scary.I'm thinking of sitting of CRNE in oct cos i haven't received eligibility to practise yet,so i guess the best date that might fit into time is oct and moreso ,i will be able to prepare for the exam. Thanks for your reply.

Hello, Am just wondering if i would need to have my credentials assessed in CARNA since am registering with CRNBC.A friend told me that most internationally educated nurses have their credentials assessed in Alberta irrespective of the province they intend to work. I have sent all documents required by CRNBC to the them and nothing has been said about credentials assessment in Alberta.I would like to know if BC operates like Quebec where a nurse can't practise in another province cos initial registration is in Quebec.(This i was told by a friend).Do i need to do credentials assessment in Alberta ? I would appreciate any information on this. Thanks.

hello,i would like to know about your progress in BC and job opportunities.I am awaiting my eligibility to practise from BC .The information i heard about BC is not too encouraging but am bent on working there since i 've started registration with CRNBC.Am hoping that i would get an employer with a temp license and be able to migrate to canada.

Thanks every one for your contribution to my question.I got in touch with an agency who said getting a job in BC is somehow uneasy and that i could transfer my registration to the college of RN in Alberta since there are better prospects there.I would like to know the possibility of this and if it is adviceable considering the fact that am yet to write CRNE and still awaiting confirmation of my eligibility to practise in canada. Am a bit unhappy about the information on job opportunities in BC for immigrant nurses esp those yet to write CRNE.I am still trying to get an employer ,so once my eligibility is confirmed i can apply to the organisation.Would really appreciate any link up with an employer in BC who recruit international nurses on temp license.

Thanks RNG 1.I am actually registering with the college of registered nurses of british columbia And have just started the registration. I have 3 yrs experiences in critical care and emergency unit,so hopefully that shouldn't give a problem.I just want to know which organisation i can apply to for employment with my status.
