  1. I am posting this for someone who is not a part of the All Nurses community and is too upset to post himself. A person I know from Canada applied to sit for the NCLEX for a U.S. state last month with...
  2. Thanks for replying! Well if those nurses can work with one eye, so can he. He might have to just be selective in what nursing fields he chooses to work in. His worry right now though is with the...
  3. PH RN

    Hi Carol, You did not mention anything about wanting to work in the U.S. immediately as a nurse but I'm assuming that's the case. Before applying to a state board, take care of the immigration...
  4. Happy you found a job
  5. Is some states, they will only allow you to take a refresher course after you pass the NCLEX and are licensed for that specific state. I'm not sure how that works in Missouri. I think what you mean is...
  6. How to become LVN

    If you want to work as an LVN first, apply to sit for the CA NCLEX-PN on the CA BVNPT website and have your school send your school documents to CGFNS for evaluation and wait a few months or so for...
  7. Definitely a daily/weekly/monthly planner so I could plan for upcoming project deadlines/tests/exams, clinical rotations, et cetera. Cell phone calendar for short-term planning. Laptop plus a printer,...
  8. BEWARE of online nursing degrees

    Hard lesson learned too late. I went on their site and yes at first, they make themselves sound like a bridging nursing school until you read the lengthy footnote that they are only a test prep site....
  9. Glad I was of some help. Thank
  10. I just realized you still have to take the GE and prereq requirements at either CSUEB or SFSU before you can register for the nursing core classes. I was thinking it was like a straight 4-year BSN...
  11. If you have a high enough GPA, I say go straight to the 4- year BSN. Honestly, it's best to go straight to a 4-year nursing program right out of high school if you are in Northern California. I heard...
  12. CGFNS took a few months because of a few problems: they said they lost some pages of my original files that were transferred from CP to CES. I had to re-request many of the other documents from my...
  13. I need to update this. I applied to WA state mid-last year and was accepted to sit for the NCLEX after being denied in CA due to the concurrency issue. At first, I believed that list of states...
  14. I'm weighing the options here only based on experience of friends and relatives and what research I have obtained online. The typical salary I see online for an RN in KSA is 3,000-6,000 per month but...
  15. CNA or LVN ??? help please!

    As SilverDragon102 said, unfortunately, there are no visa sponsorships for CNA. I checked for PCT, there are also no visa sponsorships. I incorrectly assumed you may already have a U.S. work visa...
  16. CNA or LVN ??? help please!

    I don't see my other post, so if this double posts, I apologize. Davita Dialysis STAR PCT training is 9-10 weeks and it is paid. As for the CNA program, I believe the training is in Napa and you will...
  17. concurrency issues in Washington State

    Only after approval from both the credentialing agency and the WA DOH, then you can register on the Pearson Vue website to sit for the NCLEX. After the credential evaluation with CGFNS (can take...
  18. concurrency issues in Washington State

    I'm not a nurse yet in Washington State but I did apply there and did not have any problems with concurrency after my application was denied in my home state of California. I graduated in 2014. I know...
  19. CNA or LVN ??? help please!

    Correction:
  20. CNA or LVN ??? help please!

    Double posting
  21. CNA or LVN ??? help please!

    Because you have partial nursing education and therefore do not have a diploma or Philippine license, I suggest that you will need to make sure that you have official/certified? (I don't remember what...
  22. San Fransisco Traveler Housing/Pets

    Hi welcome to the SF Bay Area! You can join this Facebook group but prior to posting you must be verified through your employer. The posters renting out are verified as well to prevent scams. It all...
  23. Yes she did take the PNLE and passed and she is lucky WA is one of her choices otherwise, other states require a current license from the country of nursing education. If she were to move to another...
  24. Congrats! People say Hurst.com or ncsbn.org for content review, KAPLAN for content, test strategies (which I've heard from some people who took the NCLEX these past 2 months did not really help them)...
  25. California Reciprocity

    Hi, The best source would be to check with the CA BON directly (916) 322-3350 and ask them if they will allow license by endorsement for a foreign-grad with _ years of experience working in a US...
