1. Can Canadian Registered Psychiatric Nurses (with a BSc. in Psych Nursing, not a BN) enjoy the same kind of "travel nursing" (and, by extension, the immigration opportunities therewith) opportunities in the United States that Canadian Registered Nurses do? 2. Can RPNs become Nurse Practioners if they want to? Would they qualify for most MN programs, like most RNs would? In essence, apart from the obvious difference in specialization (psychiatric field versus medical field) what is the different between a RN and a RPN?
