HI I am also a Brazilian nurse, currently working in the E.R for over 4 yrs. I live in California. take care everyone.

Yes, there are some hospitals that do, but again due to the financial situation of the country, and many new grads being unable to find jobs, I would say that the most experienced nurses cath lab, ICU, Dyalisis, NICU, Yes they will have better opport...

HI There are many countries that have no problems as long you have some experience as a RN with ADN. In Australia and New Zealand it is assessed by their nursing boards your level of education, training and experience on a individual basis. I have ha...

Hi I just found out some info about registration. General Nurse Conditions of authorisation and licence For general nurses there are two normal situations in respect of application for licence or authorisation: 1. Authorisation: Authorisation is gra...

Yes, it depends case by case, but Canadian, British, American trained nurses usually have no problems as long they are licensed RN's. Go ahead , gather your documents and apply.

Aus accepts adn license, United Kingdom does not, New Zealand also takes in adn folks, no worries, each case is assessed individually, they will evaluate transcripts, course curriculum from school, passport, documents, and IETLS english exam with 7 i...

The worst has passed in my opinion, but there is a hard time for all of us, even nurses that were not affected that bad before, now many new grads are having a difficult time finding jobs, many things changed for sure. Let's see but I think congress ...

That is right, I guess I got confused with Canada (provinces) heim!!!! Sorry, that is right choose the state that you want to work, go to their websites and read on overseas applicants( registered nurses), print the application, make sure you contact...

Hi, just do a research on the web, and you will find lots of info about registration. Again, you have to choose the province that you want to live and work. Each province has its own website nursing registration with application forms and phone numbe...

HI congratulations on this tough task, but do not give up. Take your classes, learn as much as you can, get prepared because it will be worth it in the end. Try to get a job in a hospital, so you can learn and see what you want. There are jobs out t...

It is still in my view that NZ political system is less corrupt, and I am sure that many others think the same, do an extensive research about the topic, you ll find out. I love both places do not have any problems at all. However, I am certain that...

I deeply apologize for the misunderstanding but it is just a fact that one nation is more political than the other and of course has very different priorities in terms of immigration, however everyone knows these simple facts it is just life. I have ...

Yeah I agree here in the U.S it is very complicated right now, visa retrogression, people have been waiting a long time for their green cards to be processed, of course US is much more political and corrupt than New Zealand everyone knows that, howev...

Visa retrogression has affected many nurses because the process is severely impacted, there were too many applicants in 2006, 2007, also the number of visas were not available due to the high demand. PLus now with the economy beginning to make a come...

Hey yeah only RN's with their BSN they usually supervise the nurse technicians( LVN), amazingly they do most of the procedures( IV's, foley's, etc.. If they have certifications , they can work in the ICU. Also assistente de enfermeira is the CNA , l...

Of course the nurse must have his or her NCLEX, visa screen certificate completed, there are jobs out there, one just have to look deep, people still get sick and sicker, hospitals are busy, emergency rooms are packed with people, I believe that some...

Oh yeah I understand your frustrations, but it happens the same in Brazil where I grew up. Well, I have an ADN degree,now I am debating if I finish my BSN or acquire another Bachelor's degree, obtained certifications in E.R, Trauma, and now will tak...

Hi, if you are licensed as a nurse RN, the board of nursing of the province that you choose to immigrate, must assess you education and experience, in the United States and Canada there are license examinations, but not in OZ or New Zealand. If you ...

I am sorry but this seems scam, it is never that easy to register as a nurse, and of course that does not happen in OZ. Esperience, language, and skills must be assessed by the board of nursing of the province case by case, please do a research on th...

Hey get your education, learn as much as possible, I know without a valid Social Sec number and FBI screening, and valid workpermit, you won't be able to work as a nurse, but you can get a degree and knowledge necessary for your future and other oppo...

Yes you should investigate more about the retrogression online, at this time, there are no visa numbers available for greencard, a lot of people waiting on the list, hospital may file the paper work , but it is not certain you ll get it. Check the vi...

Unfortunately, there are folks out there that have no idea about nursing and visa retrogression it does not matter where the nurse comes from, only the training, education, ability to practice and knowledge of that nurse, that what it counts, and tha...

I guess so, it also depends on how much experience you have as a nurse when you apply to the board. Aus has many boards in different provinces with their requirements. They evaluate case by case and make a decision about nursing registration. Please ...
