World Nurse

Also, would getting a work permit be easier if I did my education abroad? Like, say I choose Sweden or Germany and then get my B.A. equivalent within one of those countries. Would staying in that country and working be easier afterwards?

Thanks loriangel! For now just my R.N. I already have a B.A. in Psychology. I'm thinking/hoping that between the R.N. and my Bachelor's I would be able to get a B.S.N. quickly when I'm ready to upgrade. That's good to know I would need it. In what way is it difficult to get a work permit? I know in some countries you get a work permit with the help of the employer you have set up there. I'm guessing that generally you will need a work permit before an employer would ever consider you? Anyway, what is the first step to figuring it out? Is a work permit difficult for Canada as well?

I am a male student about to begin school for an R.N. in New York State. I am thinking about my future as it relates to nursing and travel. I'm sure one can't travel around to various locations every few months. I'm sure the language and regional regulations are essential. I'm wondering about: 1.) Where I can look for concrete resources on such regulations and requirements. 2.) Examples of what a life nursing abroad can be like. Stories of moving around multiple times in this profession. 3.) If United States army bases are legitimate options, and ideas of what they are like to work on. ...Anything like that. I have no specific destination, but I am considering cities to live in such as: Stockholm, Sweden Berlin, Germany Montreal, Canada Vienna, Austria Amsterdam, Netherlands Does anyone have knowledge of what is required in these cities/countries? Ultimately I'm trying to decide on a destination so that I can begin working on the requirements of the country I'm interested in. Knowing the plausibility/flexibility of some of these countries would be helpful. Thank you!
