Practice nursing in France

Published

Can anyone advise me about Practice Nursing in France? I would like to move to France, I speak excellent French and my background is Practice Nursing with years of experience. Are there jobs in France for Practice Nurses? What is the pay like?

Hi!

You can go here: http://www.infirmiers.com/profession-infirmiere/presentation/profession-infirmiere-formation-metier-dossiers-ressources-outils.html

There you'll find some answers to your questions. If you plan to come to France, one of the easiest things for you as a US nurse is to try to get a job at the American Hospital in Paris (Candidatures spontanées - Bienvenue à l'Hôpital Américain de Paris / Welcome to the American Hospital of Paris).Since it is an american structure, with all that it implies, you'll be less at a loss than in a french hospital. Besides, it should enable you to make a living during the long :sleep: recognition process of your qualifications.

I hope that I've helped you a little bit.

Good luck.
