To those of you waiting for anything from CGFNS, I must tell you this. I applied for my visascreen 6 weeks ago and my online status shows that familiar statement we all know and love 'Ready for...
Excuse me, I did not say you have a chip on your shoulder, nor did I suggest that I have a right to tell anyone that they should not be upset if they experience racism. It's as I said when...
I've thought long and hard about responding to this thread because the subject will always upset someone, no matter what. Is there racial tension in the UK? Yes there is. Ever heard of positive...
Just wondering, as a foreign educated nurse soon to be working in the US, which medical/nursing related TV programmes would you recommend watching to give me some insight into what it's "really" like...

I worked on a Unit here in the UK a couple of years ago where we were piloting the Modified Early Warning System (or MEWS). The objective was to identify patients who had the potential to deteriorate...
Hi, I'm also from the UK and will be moving to Florida soon as an RN. To answer your question, NO you are not too old! I saw 40 a loooooong time ago and I'm starting a whole new life and career. Go...
