Hi everyone, I am a nursing student and will graduate in may 2006. I would like to move to london in a few years and would like to specialize in peds. I have looked at the nmc website and I read that there are special qualifications that are needed for peds nurses. Does anyone know the exact amont of training I will need to work with children? will my nursing school peds training count, I will have done about a year traing with children when I graduate. I would appreciate any replys. Have a great day. Jen :) p.s. Please keep the hurricane victims in your prayers

I live 15 minutes from new orleans. I stayed to ride out the hurricane in my house. We hardly had any damage thank God! It is just so sad hearing all the stories of people who didn't make it. Our hosital is one of 4 open in the metro area and it is crazy.

I go to LSUSON and our school is under water. There is talk of us moving to baton rouge. there is nothng definite yet the faculity is having another meetin on sept. 7 and there could be some new developments. I hope they provide housing. Do you know of any houses for rent? I know y'all are getting people from new orleans who are going to make baton rouge their temporary home and I worried about housing. Thanks :) Jen

Welcome, glad to have you

Thanks to everyone for all their prayers. I live about 15 minutes from new orleans and I road out the storm in my house. I was very lucky and blessed that nothing happend to me or my family. Our house was not destroyed only our fence was knocked down. My school is in the city and it is under water. they are trying to move us to baton rouge to finish the semester or year, depending how long it takes to fix the building. I'm lucky I only lost some school time but others lost their life

Thanks for the all the advice. :) Jen

Hi everyone, I am a American nursing student and I want to work in london after I graduate. I wanted to save about $60,000-$70,000 before I moved there. This would be in addition to my salary in the UK. Will this be enough money? I have looked into apartments or flats and they tend to run aroud $1500-$2000/month. Should I get a roomate or can I live alone? thanks for any advice Jen

Thanks for the info. I'm sure it will come in handy when I'm looking for a job. Where in the US do you want to work? Have a great day :) Jen

I hope everyone is safe. London is a strong city and it will overcome this tragedy. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone who was affected by the blasts. Jen

Things won't be as bad for you in the US :)

I plan to move to london in about three years. will things be better by then?

Yes many lawsuits happen. but when you sue you must sue evertone who was envoled in the persons care including the nurse even if they were not responsible for the mistake or negligence
