  1. Experienced RN but foreign-trained,looking for job 3 months now

    nursepacific replied to Mrs.brath33's topic in International Nursing

    The state of new york doesn't require SSN numbers. I would think just a short distance to Conn or New Jersey would open up some

  2. Do State Board approve LPN from other countries?

    nursepacific replied to westheimer1234's topic in International Nursing

    I tried to call the California Nursing Board today to verify this, but I could not get through. I heard an interesting message about state budget cuts causing the BON to be closed on Fridays....

  3. Do State Board approve LPN from other countries?

    nursepacific replied to westheimer1234's topic in International Nursing

    In the past, California has allowed applicants to sit for the NCLEX-PN and granted licenses from the applicants who received their LPN/LVN education from the Philippines. I would suspect that most...

  4. Hong Kong in Need of Nurses

    nursepacific replied to Doza's topic in International Nursing

    I personally know a few Filipino nurses currently working as caregivers in Hong Kong right now that would love to be licensed in HK and work as nurses. I heard about a Canadian R.N. who wanted to be...

  5. Do State Board approve LPN from other countries?

    nursepacific replied to westheimer1234's topic in International Nursing

    I would actually disagree. I believe that LPN graduates from the Philippines can and do take the NCLEX-PN. I know of a green card holder that went to school in CDO and passed the NCLEX-PN for...

    nursepacific replied to piglett's topic in International Nursing

    The New Hampshire Nursing Board requires the CGFNS process (credentials review, predictor exam, and english exam) for all foreign educated nurses. Unless your wife is an English major, I suspect she...

  7. just married a foreign nurse who can help?

    nursepacific replied to piglett's topic in International Nursing

    The Philippine nursing boards are only held twice a year, the next exam after July is December. If I were you, I would have my wife quit her job immediately, and pay for the best exam prep possible...

  8. are there hospitals in USA who accept foreign RN with little or no nursing experience

    nursepacific replied to zarina_1007's topic in Immigration Advice

    When I refer to foreigner, I am referring to someone such as the poster who wanted to leave their country and work in the United States. An EEOC complaint does not apply because the company would have...

  9. are there hospitals in USA who accept foreign RN with little or no nursing experience

    nursepacific replied to zarina_1007's topic in Immigration Advice

    The 1000+ figure is from myvisajobs.com (I do not support this website), which lists the employer name in addition the the number of visas they are requesting. Labor certifications mean that the...

  10. are there hospitals in USA who accept foreign RN with little or no nursing experience

    nursepacific replied to zarina_1007's topic in Immigration Advice

    I agree with ghillbert. Hospitals for fy2010 have over 1000 labor certifications stating that they can not fill available positions (usually in critical care). I believe that many hospitals are facing...

    nursepacific replied to LemuelRN's topic in Immigration Advice

    You won't be denied the visa due to a pending immigrant visa, but you may be breaking a contract. Many nurses are currently in Canada or other countries trying to wait out

  12. how can I find a job in china? (current american)

    nursepacific replied to GAVSsugarpot's topic in Immigration Advice

    If your fiance is flying jets, how often will he be in beijing. I would agree with other posters that I don't think you can work in China unless you take their nursing exam. I would check out Saipan,...

  13. Global healthcare usa

    nursepacific replied to dream_lover's topic in International Nursing

    If you passed the FPGEE and TOEFL, and the recruitment agency has approved contracts with the POEA, I would go for it. Prepare for 1000-1500 hours at a low salary, but after finishing the hours and...

  14. not RN at philippines

    nursepacific replied to Shiela Lowman's topic in International Nursing

    So what happens if you are able to take and pass the NCLEX and are licensed by the CABON? Will you be able to endorse your license to Indiana? I would make sure you check the rules of Indiana BON...

  15. immigration to US: is it possible without a sponsoring agency?

    nursepacific replied to meowmeow80's topic in International Nursing

    I actually didn't understand the question. Is is possible to immigrate to the U.S. without a sponsor? No. It is possible to immigrate to the U.S. without a recruitment agency? Yes. It is likely? No....

  16. are there hospitals in USA who accept foreign RN with little or no nursing experience

    nursepacific replied to zarina_1007's topic in Immigration Advice

    Is it possible to get a job with no experience? Yes. It is likely? No. Due to budget cuts, I think some U.S. hospitals are still hiring foreign experienced BSNs in critical care because it is cheaper...

  17. H1b Visa for nurses under FY 2010

    nursepacific replied to LemuelRN's topic in Immigration Advice

    I was hoping someone would have more insight. In 2008 there were only 138 total nurse h1b applications nationwide. In 2009 there were over 1000. With new U.S. grads having difficulty about finding a...

  18. H1b Visa for nurses under FY 2010

    nursepacific replied to LemuelRN's topic in Immigration Advice

    Cambridge Global Services had 130 labor certifications approved last year and Medpro Staffing had over 200 for h1b nurses. Those two companies had more labor certifications than all other companies...

  19. Home Care Census Requirement

    nursepacific replied to NewHHA's topic in Home Health

    This original post is strange. It states they are accreditated by CHAPS, and already have a medicare provider number and want to know how many patients for the certification survey. They would have...

  22. H1b Visa for nurses under FY 2010

    nursepacific replied to LemuelRN's topic in Immigration Advice

    I do believe that st. judes renal facility in Saipan is short on nurses, but I seriously doubt they are hiring and that they are helping people with work visas. Due to the transition of Saipan into...

    nursepacific replied to killuwa's topic in International Nursing

    Yes, there is a nephrology certification, available through NNCC and NNCO which might be a good idea to receive in order to justify a H1B visa in the future. The certifications are not required to...

  25. H1b Visa for nurses under FY 2010

    nursepacific replied to LemuelRN's topic in Immigration Advice

    I would actually agree with Silverdragon, you probably don't qualify for a H visa based on merely working as a dialysis nurse. You would need to be in an administrative position, have a certification...
