What you need is a certificate of no examination from PRC. The certificate basically says that you haven't taken the licensure exam and also telling the BON's you're trying to apply to that there's no license to verify.

Try reaching out for Houston Methodist Hospital here in Texas. I heard they just went out of the country to fill up their staffing needs. But it would be very helpful if you're already an NCLEX passer. But then again, there's no harm in trying.

There are tens of thousands of Philippine educated nurses in US who hasn't had any problem taking the NCLEX. And I'm pretty sure nursing schools in the Philippines are well regulated by the commission on higher education. The commission makes sure th...

HCA is full speed when it comes to pleasing patients. I had a co-worker before who got flagged by pharmacy because she pulled out 18 vials of Dilaudid on her shift. She gave it all to one patient as ordered. That's how big HCA is on kissing-butts. So...

There are hospitals offering GN programs in the Conroe area. You should be able to find one. The only thing you need to worry about is what time of the year they offer those programs.

I think you're making it more complicated if you deviate from their application process. Idk if you are very familiar with snail mail and how it takes a huge chunk off of the processing time if you but if I were you, I would just correspond with the ...

First thing you need to visit is the Texas Board of Nursing website to check for your eligibility. If you meet the requirements, start working on your CES with the CGFNS. https://www.bon.texas.gov/index.asp

No. Just mail you authorization forms to CGFNS and they will verify with your school that you finished the program. Only time you'll need to submit a copy of your diploma is when you're applying to NYSED.

Yes you are right, all new hires for Memorial Hermann, regardless of what facility they will be working at goes through "Culture Day" in the Culture Day center at Memorial City. It's an 8-4pm "fun filled" affair (Be prepared to participate). I'm pret...

I did tech jobs just to get my feet inside the door but I decided that it's not best for me to work as an RN in the same hospital I was at when I was a tech so I applied to a fellowship program, basically as a GN and that's how I got to where I'm at ...

Well since you told them that you used to work as a volunteer student nurse, the board of nursing assumed that you had a special permit to practice nursing as a profession so they have to make sure that you had one or not to back your claims that you...

It varies from 15 days or greater. Your best resource would be the BON-TX themselves. I suggest you directly contact the department involved with endorsements.

Wow! Your ignorance is just astounding. First of all, Baylor Health System doesn't exclusively hire nurses who are BSN holders. They prefer BSN graduates for their magnet hospitals, but that doesn't mean exclusivity. If you're ADN and you're back in ...

Ontario is a Canadian Province so the best resource for you would be the CCRNR. (Canadian Council of Registered Nurse Regulators).

Because no matter what haters are going to hate. 8-)

I don't even know why you came up with this assumption. RNs with associate degrees already had their pre-requisites completed before they went into the nursing program so that's basically spending 2 or more years getting your pre-requisites on top of...

Yes. Your TOEFL will be needed when you apply to the CGFNS.

It would be more convenient for you to start your application once you're here in the US. You can use your husband's last name but make sure that your have an affidavit saying that your maiden name and the one you use now is the same person so CGFNS ...

You are required to have a 6-months refresher course before being licensed. That doesn't mean they are telling you to go back to school and retake the whole BSN program again. Look-up hospitals that offer refresher courses. There should be plenty in ...

The report won't be forwarded if there's no active application on the BON's side so you might as well submit an application to the board of nursing now.

Well good for you. The only thing that puzzles me is that you're on a tourist visa and that usually doesn't translate to permanent residency. Eventually, you will still need a TX Driver's license and a SSN.

You can't really apply by using a US address since you don't have the permission to use an address because you are only visiting. If you did, TX BON will require you to have a TX Driver's license and an SSN. Why don't you just wait until your wife an...
