  1. CGFNS chaos

    Cool, Congrats:)
  2. anyone registering for SRNA or in Saskatchewan?

    It's either graduated OR work experience in the last 5 years.
  3. interview preparation

    If you look at the above posts, this is a very likely scenario. My interview for Band 6 was like this. The interviewer want to know why they should choose you for the position, what makes you...
  4. LMO Inquiry

    LMO just takes a couple of days. But for the Visa you will need the eligibility letter.
  5. CGFNS chaos

    Talking to a supervisor only makes sense if they exceed the processing time, what they haven't yet. And even then the operator will flag up your file, so supervisor is rarely necessary. You will have...
  6. International Student Advisors 4U

    You are the one who very obviously know nothing about it. At least not the legal way, there's absolutly no legal requirement to work overtime as a caregiver, so they are abusing the system. The...
  7. I want to be a Nurse in Germany too... but...

    You need to be fluent in German first. This lady from the nursing agency was absolutly right to have the forms filled in german. After your german is fluent come back and we might be able to guide you...
  8. uk student nurse!!

    What I know from collegues the adult branch gives you the least of all possibilities, and you might not cover peds, mental and obstetrics, if your goal is indeed the States or another country that...
  9. Ventilator competencies

    I absolutly agree with Sharrie!
  10. anyone registering for SRNA or in Saskatchewan?

    You don't need experience to register, you need experience to find an employer. 2 different things:)
  11. Re: Filipino RN's about to take CRNE exam

    SEC in SK right now is free, but you don't even know if you need one, do you?? Hostel is about 40 CAD per night.
  12. anyone registering for SRNA or in Saskatchewan?

    sknurse07 was employed in Regina, but she hasn't posted in ages. Check out a thread covering Regina.
  13. British Columbia vs Saskatchewan

    You need to decide where you want to live, Not where the easiest or fast way is for registering. BC and Sk are very different provinces, the only thing in common is they are both western provinces and...
  14. applying reciprocityin canada

    There seem to be a big confusion around. NCLEX has NOTHING to do with Canada, it's the US state exam for Nurses. It doesn't matter if you passed NCLEX as an IEN. It's like if you pass the Mexican...
  15. Tattoo Question

    I would guess nowadays it shouldn't really matter much, if it's not offensive. So many people have tattoos. Depending on the hospital/health region policy they might want you to cover it, if possible....
  16. Your friend should have a letter stating the eligibility for the interim permit. That should satisfy potential employers. SEC is asked by the College of Nursing BEFORE someone is eligible to take CRNE...
  17. Re: Registering for CRNE

    The quoted post is a bit older but anyway... You need the grad nurse licence from the first day of your employment, not earlier since it's only good for 4 months. Do you have an employer??? If you...
  18. Re: Filipino RN's about to take CRNE exam

    You can apply and you can sit the CRNE if SRNA declares you for eligible, in fact employers will want to know if you are. But it's highly unlikely that you will find an employer in Canada when you...
  19. Part of SEC is clinical (scenarios) how do you want to take that online???? It is how it is, you have to travel to Canada to get the assessment done, if you need one, same goes for CRNE.
  20. applying reciprocityin canada

    What nonsense! Canada and the USA are 2 very different countries with very different healthsystems, if you have passed NCLEX doesn't interest at all, sorry. You will have to apply at the College of...
  21. Is this a new trend getting licensed in Illinois after applying in California??? Just wondering since there were similar threads recently.
  22. Exactly! Big con: allways regarded as foreign educated, registration process longer and complicated, not able to work for several months after finishing education, nursing education probably not...
  23. Planning to take Post Grad Studies in UK

    Just to add my 2 cents.... What we need are nurses with clinical experience if we are ever allowed to hire again, absolutly nobody is interested in a nurse who does nothing then studying, sorry, but...
  24. Hushdawg, I work with many Filipinos and I agree absolutly with Suzanne. Some are speaking english very well others not, all their main language is Tagalog and all of them switch to Tagalog if they...
  25. CES for Illinois

    Depends on BON, if they want proof of english then you need it, check the BON website
