Thanks Meeky. Who are you going through. Don't mind if you PM me. I have been in this journey since 2009 waiting for retrogression to clear.

Hi Meeky how long from completing your forms and sending them to NVC did it take to get embassy interview. I am just awaiting an embassy interview

That is your name so they can check into other names you have used whilst being licensed

I believe each state is different. You only way you would know is going through CGFNS and get your qualification assessed to see if you meet the criteria. You can not take the NCLEX unless you meet the requirements to register in the state of choice. The NCLEX is part of the registration process.

Mine was done through Nebraska in April and took 2 days from submit to processed. Don't know if this helps you

Hi i am going to America in the next nine months. In the mean time I have moved to Australia to further my experience. My green card first step is approved I am just waiting on my final interview and the embassy here in Sydney. How are you going

Yeah I am yet to see zero tolerance ;-}

I have got to say without our support workers it would be a hard job. Our support workers are very much involved in our team and very respected after all without them we wouldn't get full care for the patient. I know what you mean regarding families, we get this on our unit where they are rude and abusive to staff. Although the nhs apparently have a no abuse towards staff management are very reluctant to go down the route to get them removed from the unit.

I currently work in an intensive care area within the NHS and besides he odd few doctors nurses are very much respected within our roles. After all the doctors would not be able to provide a lot of the treatments if it wasn't for nurses. The doctors where are work are very respectful of workloads and will often help out he nurses with drugs and obs of needed. I can say I have worked in three different trust and never not been respected by the team you work with. As silver dragon said management are a different matter but that the same in any job you could work in.

You will find that if you are new to the NHS most trust outside of London will start you in the first starting point of band 5 and this will increase with performance review on a yearly basis. On top of the basic pay we do get unsocial hours payments as well depending on the shifts you work.

I have been through the process of cgfns and taken and passed my nclex. I am a uk nurse but adult branch the process for me once quick but was done back in 2009. Good luck Have your family sponsored your visa because there is currently retrogression so will not be able to move straight away. You will have to wait for a visa to become available and at present the family sponsored visa have not moved for mNy months.

They may ask something on the lines of since Frances report what changes have been made on the unit and how is this improving patient cares, do you do the nursing dashboards in your hospital are you passing these. They may want to ask if you could change something on the unit what would it be and how would you go about it. There may be scenarios also. You are reading on the right lines good luck

You can look at leadership and how to become a good leader you need to gain the trust of the band 6's already on the unit whilst them also gaining trust within you. You have to be approachable and supportive to the band 5's on the unit. I would look at the Frances report and bring this in to your presentation because the downfalls were the lack of leadership. You can message me if you would like

If you read the Frances report, berwick report cavendish, keogh, and clwyd-hart these will tell you about changes in the NHS. I don't want to do the research for you because there are so many things going on. Summaries are available online

Also look at berwick report And ppi
