UK nurse in process of going to Florida

Published

I'm a nurse from the UK - luckily trained under the old system so I don't have to make up hours - who is in the process of becoming a US RN. I want to post a warning about using IHGi who lied to me about having mailed my papers when they had done nothing :eek: :angryfire . I suggest to any other UK nurses that they use Adevia (or another high profile agency) who have been fantastic so far.

Specializes in RN, BSN, CHDN.
well i qualified in september 2003 and had more than enough of the required hours!

the only way to find out how many hours you completed is to get your transcripts from the university.

they take into account time off sick so all slackers beware! :lol2:

Well I imagine you are unusual because lots of courses in Uk do not have the required hours in fact you are the first one I have read about in a long time. Where did you train so other perspective nurses who wish to go to US can apply at that University or swap courses to go there?
