UK RN to New York

Published

Hello fellow nurses. I am currently 4 years out of nursing school and working in Australia in Paediatrics as a RN. I did my BSc in Adult nursing in London. I am wondering if there are any UK nurses who got licensed in NY. I have just applied for the CGFNS last night. I understand I may need to do maternity ect. Second question anyone know of any schools in NY or the USA that offers this?

 

 

Thanks

Charlie :)

Hi, my partner is still in Uni but she is finishing by January.. She did some placements in Sexual Health Clinic which she took care of Paeds about sexual health. She still has the chance to go community placement. Can someone reach out to help us her NY application once she qualifies? We are targeting NY in the future. If someone can help please email me [email protected]. Thanks in advance!

Congratulations Charlie! That's great. I've just had my University send my transcripts for a 3rd time after a lot of kicking and screaming. Tracking shows the CGFNS now have them (thank the lord) so just waiting for their feedback.
