Their website may have more information for you.The VG does not have pediatrics. Good luck to you!

Jan 31, 2008 Are you two talking about the same Victoria General Hospital? There are at least a half dozen of them in Canada... one in Halifax, one in Winnipeg, one in Victoria for sure. If I recall correctly the Victoria General Hospital in Victoria, BC does have a pediatric ward. It would be the only peds ward on Vancouver Island.

You get so focused on a name that is familiar and all else fades away I guess! :icon_rollGood luck to you in your new job,Ayel! I don't know anything about Victoria's VG, but I've been to Victoria quite a few times and it is a lovely city -in fact,you're in for a real treat living on Vancouver Island -it is an AWESOME place - Mother Nature is particularly beautiful there!!!! All the best! jen

Thanks!hi ayel! im also processing for my CRNE, what agency or agent are you affiliated?thanks..
AYEL 32 Posts Jan 31, 2008 thanks to both of you jen and janfrn....... yes we miss the location of the hospital. And i forgot also about the other VGH. The VHG im talking about is in Victoria. Im sched to take the CRNE this coming June 4,2008. Trying to prepare while waiting for my working permit. oobie: im under VIHA. They gave me options on how to enter Canada (PNP or working permit) and i asked the advice of my agent based in Canada..... and i will go in through dual intent, meaning ongoing processing of PR while on working permit. Expensive but much faster to obtain the PR according to my agent.cheers! ayel
