Refresher course

I just passed my NCLEX and i need to do the refresher course here in Texas because my license is from my Hawaii and haven't practice for the last 5 years in my country where I came from. (Philippines)

I am employed in a hospital right now and they're offering me the internship. my question is should I still do the refresher course or that internship is considered as a refresher already?

    The best place to ask this question is the TX Board of Nursing. I'm currently taking an online refresher course to re-activate my RN license through Austin Community College. I was out of nursing for many years due to medical disability. I remember reading on the board of nursing's website that one of the alternatives to a refresher course was an "extensive orientation". But you would have to check with the TX Board of Nursing to make sure your hospital's internship meets all of the board's requirements.
