It's not the work visa I'm worried about. I want to know if Its possible for me to work as a scrub nurse in the operating Room with my certificate and license without having to take the RN program.
But in order to work in California you need a work visa and you will not qualifty as an RPN.
And how would he do it with no visa?
He hasn't indicated one way or another. May already have a immigrant visa via another source either way we can try and answer questions. Jobs being what they are in California expect things to be very hard and I wouldn't be surprised if requirement is RN rather than LPN/LVN for OR

Hello my name is Anthony I am a registered practical nurse in Canada and just recently obtained my certificate to work in the operating room as a scrub nurse. The reason I am messaging on here is because I am seeking advice. I am planing to move to California and want to work in the operating room but don't know how to transfer my profession since USA don't have RPNs but LPNs and no scrub nurse but operating room tech.
