Try to contact agency that can give you a work as a caregiver. Ask them, if possible to give you an assignment in a hospital.

I am happy that I was given a chance to have fulltime position in a hospital in Quebec. Until I realized that I am only getting 58% of my salary. 42% of which is my deductions like federal tax, provincial tax, medical, pension, union and other benefits. I am just wondering about other nurses who work in other provinces of Canada, especially Alberta, how much total deductions you have there..... Thanks in advance

You can work under temporary RN license renewable every year for 4 years as long as you will take OQLF exam (french exam).

Hi iamdi! Our BSN is not equivalent to the BSN in Ontario. However, CNO will give you options like bridging program or answering BET to meet their requirements.Try to go over the package they sent you, though,I know its a lot of papers, you have to understand the content. I am now an RN in Ontario. I transferred my license here in Quebec, now I am working as a temporary RN (pending because I still need to pass french exam). Currently holding a Nurse Clinician position in a hospital. All my diplomas are from our country.

So, by the year 2015, CRNE will not exist.-according to CNA President http://m.youtube.com/#/profile?autoplay=True&bmb=1&channel_id=0&desktop_uri=%2Fuser%2FCNAVideos%3Ffeature%3Dmhee&feature=mhee&gl=CA&help=False&livestreaming_tutorial=False&start=0&tab=&user=CNAVideos&v=f0unECD_884&view=videos&ytsession=%7B%7D

I passed NCLEX-RN and CRNE, these exams evaluate nurses in a different and unique ways. My questions are: First, how can this happen without CNA or their provincial counterparts be involved in the decision making? Second, how can Nurses stand up for Canadian nursing?

Hi miasat! Just want to ask if you also asked for an evaluation of your credentials and comply to other requirements, like IELTS, of the College of Nurses of Manitoba. Thanks in advance.

I just want to add information about NG tube placement. For confirmation--- INITIAL--- X-RAY ---for subsequent and/ or displaced---pH strip----if pH ----if pH >5--another X-RAY should be done ****info from mosby book

I just want to ask if examinees are allowed to eat light snack during exam. Im just afraid that my brain will run out of glucose. So anxious about the exam tomorrow but keeping my anxiety in level 1...

Hi avhiecasis! congratulations to you and to everyone here!

I finished BS Medical Technology(BSMT) prior to my BSN. I did not submit verification of course completion and transcript request from the school where I attended my BSMT. CNO only requested subject description of all the degree that I finished, since some of my subjects from BSMT were credited to my BSN. Hope this information help;)

Hi pickles27! Congratulations! When are you planning to take crne?

Hi kanebo! There are lots of applicants from the Philippines who only have BSN(then answered BET), but became eligible to take CRNE. I hope yours will come soon.

r.u.serius, thanks...Yes I want to apply for temp license, but of course the first step is to find an employer so that I will be granted to have one.

Hi pickles27! Thanks! I submitted my BET first week of November 2010. Maybe yours is coming soon because they asked your document from George Brown College. Keep on praying;)

I received my eligibility to take CRNE yesterday(but dated Jan 17)!!!!Answering BET really helps me to be eligible to take exam!!! Thanks God;)

Hi Pickles27! I sent a private message to you..I am hoping for your reply..Thanks in advance....

Please kindly read your link so you will be enlightened. I already confirmed this information at CNO:lol2:

Larret, I respect your opinion/understanding about this. I don't want to argue about it. Thanks anyway for your information.

Hi everyone! I dont know if CNO already change their rules about temporary license. There are members in this forum who are also eligible to take the exam(Feb 2011) and now practicing as tempRN. Upon receiving their eligibility, they look for an employer and apply for tempRN in CNO. I submitted my application and sent verification to my previous employers, colleges, and regulatory bodies.

Do you have clinical experience? You are so lucky! Congrats:yeah:

Hi gryanero! 3 months after my application, they sent me BET. It took me a month to finish my BET. Now I'm just waiting for my eligibility to take the exam(In God's will). Its been 1 month and 2 weeks now since I sent my BET in their office.

Hi larret! Are you freshgrad? thanks

Thank you very much avhiecasis! Good luck!;)I hope I can also get mine soon.

avhiecasis, pickles27,adverse effect, Is there any news from CNO after submitting your BET?
