UK qualified nurse moving to France

World International

Hi all 

I have a bit of a complex situation and wondering If anyone can advise . 

I have an EU passport , but qualified as RN in the UK . Currently working in Canada since 2019 so I'm licensed by both NMC and Ontario college of nurses . Speak fluent English and French . 

with a view of moving to France, I'm wondering if UK degrees are fully comparable and recognised since Brexit ( mine was obtained in 2017 so before Brexit ) . I have an automatic right to work and live in France as EU citizen but I'm way too old to be going through another degree 😅 so ideally hoping my UK one is recognised .

and how do I go about it ? Do they register in a region you want to live in ( which I'm not sure of yet ) or is it valid for a whole country ? 
I'm happy to practice in French or pass language tests etc but firstly if anyone has direct links to where to apply for degree equivalence it would be great . 
Thank you
