well done best of luck

Wow this is a blast from the past I think is was one of the last RNs to get in Arrived in Florida Sept 2007 Happy working in a Cath Lab in Orlando Husband and kids more than happy with new life

It is so wonderful to hear the positive. We moved to Florida Sept 2007, the first few months were hard but have not looked back. We like you were fed up with the struggle As a family we are so happy (kids 15 and 17) We miss our family and friends but would we go back NO!

I did the enrolled nurse training and qualified in 1990. Did the conversion in 1996 in less that a year. I took us 2 1/2 to get the the USA we are still amazed we got an interview with retrogression. Arrived Sept 2007 so been here 14 months now. Working in the same job in a Cardiac Cath Lab in Orlando Florida. We did not use an agency. I have two kids 15 and 16 and a husband. (they never what to go back) Kids went to so grandparents last summer in UK but dont think I will be able to make them go next year.

I am so sorry have not been on for ages. Life just seems so busy all the time. Really sorry I missed your stay in FL, maybe next time. Very best of luck with the new job.

Best of luck such a shame you will not be working in FL If you are in Orlando in next month look us up

I was only looking at this last night you can as a US RN and taken an online course with Dundee University. Only problem is small cost of $15,000 LOL can be taken over five years. They will hopefully look at my UK degree level courses I have taken. Really not sure if I want to put in the time but going to think about it.

We had finished our application to OZ when we had our call to the US embassy last year. (We had just had enough) We even come to FL last June to make sure our rental property would be good without us for a couple of years. Been here in the US since Sept and I fully understand I can what you are going through. Best of luck which ever way it turn out. I hope you get that envelope soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it may be places like OR or Cath Lab not a ward where it would be a problem. Best of luck

Thanks Orlando We can see the Disney Fireworks from our home every evening

I thought it was an anti static issue, I know is was when I was in the cath lab

Yes I know what you mean. At least it is warm rain.

Yes not that far away at all

I hope it will not be too long for you now. Get over here as quick as you can. Thanks English Nurse and everyone else I'll be sure to keep you up dated, life just seem so busy at the moment but I am sure it will settle down soon.

We now live in Winter Garden and I hope to be working in Orlando
