Hi: I need some advice regarding which area in Ontario to relocate after my divorce (it's still not decided but highly probable, so I need a plan asap). I'm an internationally educated nurse registered in Ontario for more than a year. I live and work...

Hi golu, CNO does use WES credential assessment service, that's why CNO is cited among the organizations that use WES reports. (Third party credential assessment). However, you don't need to send your documents to WES. Once CNO receives all your tr...

Hi, I live not far from Cumberland and was sleeping after a night shift when the quake happened. Since I usually sleep with my dog, I'm sure that he moved around and that woke me up. Gee, the bed was moving and everything was like shaking. I had time...

I like having my "30 seconds commercial" with the info I'm willing to share. " I'm married and have a wonderful dog " Having a dog is a great starting point to start turning the conversation around or just deflecting it back to the questioner. I've...

If you're looking for "the better choice as far as psychosocial or community health nursing was concerned", Lippincott would be the way to go. Be aware that it's not a "review book" but a "questions and rationales" book.

hi, i'm looking at algonquin too but for the critical care or emergency programs. i don't know if they'll actually accept me because i don't have two years acute hospital experience. i wonder, as an ien how will i get the experience if every time i b...

I bought two sets of scrubs from uniform.ca two months ago, and I'm very pleased with my purchase: those scrubs have got me lots of compliments:cool: The tops are nice, but I'm even more happy with the design of the pants, very, very flattering and...

If we could actually claim exam fees in Ontario, which documents would be used to prove that we did pay those fees??? I haven't receive any receipts from CNO re: CRNE fees:confused: OMG, I got no tax credits at all these season

Hi, I agree that the CNA guide is the closest thing to the exam, but it could be not enough. Lippincott has quite a few good questions and the rationales are well written. Besides, the content is truly Canadian. That being said, I also used the Saun...

Hi yahy: I'll keep you in my prayers, and I'm sure many other nurses here will pray for you as well. I admire you for keeping a positive mental frame. It all starts with a dream: you have it, now you need to build it in your mind, or as another memb...

Personally, no. But even before I was given eligibility to write the exam, I've been following the CRNE threads. If you have a look at previous threads, you'll see that someone who unfortunately failed posted the passing score for that particular ...

Most likely, in order to know the passing score you guys will need to wait for someone who failed (or knows someone who failed) to kindly post the score. Hopefully everybody who deserves to be a nurse will pass though.

Hi, I took the exam in October, and the people in Ontario were the last ones to get their results: a little more than two weeks passed between the first passer in BC and the first news from the Ontario writers. I have never heard/read of anyone in On...

Sorry to hear about your friends. It's a nice gesture from the college...somehow

I guess that the more IENs apply to those provinces still not requiring a BSN, the longer the waiting time will be. Colleges need a lot of resources (assessors and so on) to evaluate the applications, that's a lot of $$$. I guess they're not really ...

Hi ayen, I think that your main problem now would be to find another employer willing to sponsor you so that you complete the required time as a living caregiver in order to obtain permanent resident. Fortunately, you may be able to start processing...

Before this thread is closed, I'd like to ask you something janfrn: what did you mean with the omen thing. IDK why but just thinking about omens spooks me a bit (maybe because of the movies, lol). At that time most of the posters waiting for their r...

Hi DEMS, I'm very happy for you as well. Keep enjoying yourself. The loooong wait was worth it:anpom: :dncgbby:

Do some deep breathing, relax, think of something nice if you can, SMILE!!! Hopefully tomorrow the mailman will bring good news to you:redbeathe

The program is quite competitive. I suggest you apply early, especially if you want to take the program at the University. After all the spots are filled, they may offer you one of the collaborative programs: Algonquin (Ottawa West Campus) and the la...

Thank you sheng31. I actually knew that I my results would arrived a day after yours because I got my card a day after you told me you've received yours, so it was kind of "evidence based" Good luck in your job search!!

Hi soetpeel, good to see someone who actually used the Lippincott's book: I did it and just passed. I won't say the questions were exactly the same (CRNE is a lot more difficult) but after the CNA guide Lippincott has my vote for "questions/content ...

Sheng31, I was right: just got my results a day after you: and I PASSED!!!!! I'm so happy guys, I've thanked the Lord, all the Saints, my family (mentally because they're physically far from me now), my dog (who is sitting on my lap and doesn't have ...

Congratz again to all the passers :) Thank you sheng31, so tomorrow will be my day, I need not forget to ask for the mailbox key in the morning, lol. I'm so desperate because I'm draining confidence: meaning, I've got no confidence left I'm truly s...
