  1. Nurses not speaking english at work

    Hushdawg replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing

    I agree that it should not be; but it is. The requirements for application are different for foreign versus US Grads yet they are made to use the same application form in most cases. Studies prove...

  2. Yelled at a patient

    Hushdawg replied to KalipsoRed's topic in General Nursing

    Your charge nurse was wrong for that. Denigrating you to the patient does not solve the problem it justifies the patient's actions. I cannot support your actions either; however I do understand WHY...

  3. Nurses not speaking english at work

    Hushdawg replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing

    Not according to my conversation with CGFNS and multiple boards of registered nursing. If you have a BSN in another country then it better be on par with BSN education in the USA. I think you also...

    Hushdawg replied to Shiela Lowman's topic in International Nursing

    Focus on this. Remember that CABON is enforcing the SSN only rule now, so unless you have an SSN they will not accept your application beyond April 26th,

  6. Nurses not speaking english at work

    Hushdawg replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing

    You are correct... I got my percentages and my numbers mixed up. 45 million Hispanics who speak Spanish as their first language which is roughly 15% of the 2008 population census. So when I said...

  7. Nurses not speaking english at work

    Hushdawg replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing

    I have no argument with that. I am an advocate of enforcing an English Only policy when dealing with patients, family, etc (unless of course you are capable of speaking the language they need). I am...

  8. Nurses not speaking english at work

    Hushdawg replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing

    Not a good argument to make since 95% of the schools also teach Spanish as early as 1st grade to help children become bilingual in an increasingly bilingual nation. Roughly 40% of all Americans...

  10. Nurses not speaking english at work

    Hushdawg replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing

    That was a seriously ill-informed statement. If that were the case then Pinoy RNs would never be able to get CES certification since part of the evaluation is to ensure that the education is on the...

  11. Nurses not speaking english at work

    Hushdawg replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing

    The first statement is irresponsibly ludicrous. FILIPINO nurses' BSN is completely on par with US education level; this is evaluated in the processing of the licensure application either by the BON...

    Two corrections In an interview you are required to let them know if you are currently able to work legally in the USA. The specific visa does not come into question; but you do have to inform them if...

  13. Nurses not speaking english at work

    Hushdawg replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing

    That is inaccurate. According to US Labor laws they would not be able to be paid any less than a native-born American in the same hospital in the same position. Even if they are only in the USA on a...

    Hushdawg replied to Guest296136's topic in General Nursing

    I have to correct a few things. 1) The Philippines was granted soverignty and independence in 1946 after it had been occupied and oppressed by the American Military for 50 years (Water-boarding as a...

  15. ATTENTION: CA BON Now Requires SSN to apply for NCLEX.

    Hushdawg replied to Hushdawg's topic in Philippines

    Your best bet would be to endorse to another state. Not all states will accept without a physical license so you'll need to be sure. Do you have family in the USA that you plan on moving in with once...

  16. Name too long and doesnt match with ATT

    Hushdawg replied to senyaless's topic in International Nursing

    I would suggest that you do that as well as bringing another government issued ID with photo and signature to accompany your passport. Pearson Vue has limited themselves and caused problems for...
