Congratulations! It’s not a journey for the faint hearted! I’m also a UK trained nurse who has been working as a USRN for over a year. It takes a lot of patience and God!
When I finally become a nurse,it's you, Belinda🎉. You motivate me, I have two degrees, and I still want to be a nurse. You make learning/study look easy.
And finally, we need a video on your mindset, the way you think and analyse things is out of this world. You need to share with us some of your tips and tricks so we can be baddies too.
Thanks for your video everything is on point ! The makeup and the information by God grace I will reach American soil ☺️ coz there are more opportunities past the UK America looks good on u!
Huge congratulations Nurse Bellinda on the completion of your program and thank you for responding to my questions when I reached out on IG. You're a huge inspiration
So you will just need to get your nursing degree evaluated. Then sit for your green card. What are you doing studying nursing in the uk as a green card holder 😊
@lifeofme374 what 😳😳 you could t decide 😂😂 it would of been a no brainer for me lol 😂 but then that’s just me. At least your moving back journey will be easy with you having a green card. How did you manage to stay out of the country so long as a greencard holder
Hi Belinda, good to hear that uou finally made it. So proud of your achievement. Wish i can do that. My question is this: what's advice to a new graduate who got a job offer ICU or ED? Which one do you think will be more beneficial?
Hi Belinda honestly I love to listern to your videos and advise I was actually waiting to hear from you as you mentioned you were relocating to the USA. Finally you have updated what the USA is like in regards to working in health sector. How is it like to work as a health care assistant as am planning to be a nurse in future . Belinda I know you arm high and this is not your possition but because of your genuine advice will appreciate your advise and put it on board as it is not very helpful to start nursing from the UK if you are planning to go to the USA. PLEASE ADVISE
Thanks great video, and congratulations of navigating such a transition. I am heading to California early next year. I have an American wife so visa is not an issue, I am expecting this to come through soon. The absn may have to be an option. Just wondered if you could tell me the name of the college you did yours? It's great you didn't have to do the full thing! What state are you now working in?
@@nurse_bellinda thanks for the reply. If you don't mind me asking, how did you go about funding the course , did you take out a loan or use savings? I am hoping I will just have to make up deficiencies as the courses can be costly!
Yes thats true , for example Polish nursing degree( also the one taught in English ) is accepted in Us as Polish nursing degree its based on american nursing curriculum and includes ginecology and peadiatrics.
Nurse Nanelle needs tonsee this video. I think deep down inside she want to (and is planning to) migrate to US soon, based on her increased curiosity in USA living/lifestyle 😉😎
Every Nanelle subscriber knows Nanelle loves the USA. I think the major barrier to her moving is probably her hubby not in support. I know when they are ready, they will move
Hi there, just wondering how your dental crowns are holding up these days? Any issues? I'm interesting in travelling to Turkey to get crowns as well, I'm eager to hear people's experiences several years after their procedure.
Hi, I know Physician Associate is a different career but since most say UK Physician Associates can't work in America, do you think there is a similar route to taking extra modules to work in the US as a UK trained Physician Associate especially as the GMC will be regulating Physician Associates? I'm just curious if you know anything about this. Thanks
And I believe that it may not be too long USA and Canada will copy uk module.because uk is always a pace setter in policy that affects the other developed countries
No unfortunately that will never be the case the USA can not copy UK nursing system because uk nursing system scope of practice is limited. When I did nursing in the uk I never focused on pediatrics but in the USA I had to focus on pediatrics. The uk nursing system will never be the same as the USA or Canada
It is a wild process!! Thank you for youe video. I've just got 1 question, i cant seem to find any answers. I didnt do peads/mothers in uni (uk trained) but i did when i was qualified as an RN. If i provided evidence of this would it be sufficient for cgfns?
Clinical skills you will have, however I am not too sure when it comes to the theory aspect of it. That’s the issue however you can try and they may be able to waive it
Hi Bellinda, I have passed my Nclex and also got a job in the US but due to retrogression, I want to do my Masters here in the UK while waiting. Please may I ask if MSN in UK is acceptable in USA if I want to be a Nurse practitioner in USA?, I need your advice please
@@nurse_bellinda oh wow, I didn’t know that. I was here thinking I could do them here. But does that mean I would have to move without fully knowing what university I’ve been accepted into? Or do they accept students and give them time to complete the prerequisites?
@nurse_bellinda wished I could dm you. Lol 😅 so I have my usrn license, but 30 months away from PR, and currently thinking of staying and starting graduate entry, cause hardly would n.p satisfy me, crna is highly competitive, doing md opens door to more specialities, and uk graduate md is cheaper. Hard to decide 😅😅 but you've made a move to the USA and you once wanted to get on the MD path, so I'll like to hear your opinion now that you have migrated
It would have been better if you used you OPT to work as a floor nurse for a few years and have that company file your green card for you. You can go back to NP school when you are a green card holder, it would be much cheaper.
Why should I work as a floor nurse? I have 20 months nursing experience as an emergency nurse. I did do opt, and I didn’t need a company to file for my greencard because I am a spouse of a permanent resident.
You can’t do the prerequisites online only if you are applying for the ABSN program. Some universities want you to complete some face to face and some online. They can be very funny about it, especially if you are going to come over as an international student.
Hi,Belinda! Can one do an MSC, CRNA or DNP in America with a UK nursing degree alone? That is, will you be given admission by the universities to study these courses without qualifying first as a US nurse?
@@nurse_bellindaHi Belinda, it is possible. If the person has a BsN , there are few schools that take MSN -NP and sponsor the f1 visa. And it’s a plus that he has the NcLEX too.
@@successumesiri How its not possible to apply for NP outside unless you have completed prerequisites. I understand that they take f1 visa student I was an f1 visa student when I started the program. However, you still need prerequisites. Most universities want foreign trained nurses to have 1 year USA nursing experience within the country.
Hi Belinda! You video has been very helpful , cuz right now I'm looking to do the ABSN or the direct entry MSN. And so far I haven't gotten successful with admissions, cuz of same reasons you mentioned. And really it's depressing. Is there a way I can contact you through through DM, or email. I will really appreciate your help with some of my questions. Thanks in advance
It would basically mean that you would have covered most of the requirements and that it would make it easier to apply then if you would have only done one area only
Well done Melinda, you are such a determined Lady,I first saw you on Nanelle's channel.
Congratulations on your achievement 👏
I love your energy! Go getter that’s what you are Belinda and I’m grinningly proud of you 😊
Thank you so much!!
Congratulations! It’s not a journey for the faint hearted! I’m also a UK trained nurse who has been working as a USRN for over a year. It takes a lot of patience and God!
Thank you so much!!
@@Susan_Brandy how much hours have u had in mental health,peads,obstetrics ?
Am I a RN nurse? No, do I want to be a RN? No. But I followed as your drive is really motivating to pursue my career ambitions ❤
Incredible Belinda. You've worked so hard to accomplish your goals. Admirable and inspiring❤❤
Thank you
Hey my loves, Welcome back.. hope you find this video useful. I am back, kindly drop any content idea. 😊
Hey I'm trying to get into uni but I am planning to work in the UK or US. Is it easier get a job as a doctor or as a nurse?
When I finally become a nurse,it's you, Belinda🎉. You motivate me, I have two degrees, and I still want to be a nurse. You make learning/study look easy.
And finally, we need a video on your mindset, the way you think and analyse things is out of this world. You need to share with us some of your tips and tricks so we can be baddies too.
Ahhhh thanks babe 😂😂
Thanks for your video everything is on point ! The makeup and the information by God grace I will reach American soil ☺️ coz there are more opportunities past the UK America looks good on u!
You can do it!
Congratulations on given a very well detailed video on your journey to America 🇺🇸 such a package rooting for you in the US❤
Well done for the resilience . YOU DID THAT!
Huge congratulations Nurse Bellinda on the completion of your program and thank you for responding to my questions when I reached out on IG. You're a huge inspiration
I've worked with many nurses in the UK.. you stand out to me for many reasons. Nothing but respect for you 🏆🫡🎓💪
You're sensational. I'm not a nurse, but it's hard not to be inspired by your drive and ambition. 💖
This video is giving STEEEZE, happy to see you back.

i’m already a green card holder so i won’t need to do the visa. how can i get to take my NCLEX? i’m a second year stn in the UK
Have you graduated from nursing school?
@@JosephineEze79 not yet. i have 1 year left
So you will just need to get your nursing degree evaluated. Then sit for your green card. What are you doing studying nursing in the uk as a green card holder 😊
@@nurse_bellinda thank you & i know 🤣 i just couldn’t decide. i’ll be moving back over once im done

Perfect thank you do much for your advice

Yes thats true , for example Polish nursing degree( also the one taught in English ) is accepted in Us as Polish nursing degree its based on american nursing curriculum and includes ginecology and peadiatrics.
I will never understand UK nursing system.

Hi, so far I have no issues at all still intact and very pleased with them still 4 years later
A video on USA and UK comparison on lifestyle, wages, safety, etc.

No uk masters is not accepted in the USA for nurse practitioner
@@nurse_bellinda thank you very much for your response
Hi hun, is there any other route other than the one you take? Thank you
Yes I heard a lot of nurses use another evaluation service, (ERES) and then they apply through the board of nursing of New York.
@nurse_bellinda oh ok! thank you.
Thanks nurse. I wanted to ask, is there an option to do all the prerequisites online from here in the uk?
Also prerequisites are so expensive. The ones I saw were like over 7k for about 21 credits. Was that your experience or did u find any cheaper ones?
@@moeshafullerton8694 That's actually cheap for US education. I'm paying $680/credit here.
No you can’t do it online while you in another country, you will need a social security number to register for those online classes and do them here
@@moeshafullerton8694it depends if you doing it in a university or college. Colleges are cheaper then university
@@nurse_bellinda oh wow, I didn’t know that. I was here thinking I could do them here. But does that mean I would have to move without fully knowing what university I’ve been accepted into? Or do they accept students and give them time to complete the prerequisites?
Nice content, did you dump the MD plans
lol 😂 never. Concersation for another day. There is levels 😀😂😂

We need a more detailed video about the pre requisites you took b4 the ABSN. Please!!!!!
Editing and loading
How many hours is minimum required in the other fields like child and mental health?
If May vary per state.
It would have been better if you used you OPT to work as a floor nurse for a few years and have that company file your green card for you. You can go back to NP school when you are a green card holder, it would be much cheaper.
Why should I work as a floor nurse? I have 20 months nursing experience as an emergency nurse. I did do opt, and I didn’t need a company to file for my greencard because I am a spouse of a permanent resident.
@@nurse_bellinda You're on a different pathway then. All the best!
But can someone do the prerequisite courses online from any where in the world. And then apply to complete the masters accelerated nursing
You can’t do the prerequisites online only if you are applying for the ABSN program. Some universities want you to complete some face to face and some online. They can be very funny about it, especially if you are going to come over as an international student.
@@nurse_bellinda Hi Belinda, I was wondering if you knew any other universities that accept UK nurses into their ABSN course. Thanks🎉
Hi,Belinda! Can one do an MSC, CRNA or DNP in America with a UK nursing degree alone? That is, will you be given admission by the universities to study these courses without qualifying first as a US nurse?
No you can’t you would still need a USA nursing licence, will make a whole video on this
@@nurse_bellinda Thanks. Looking forward to the video.
After NP are you still going to pursue medical school?
lol 😂 maybe
@@nurse_bellinda ❤️
Come on now 🎉🎉🎉

Can a newly qualified nurse write nckex from uk or experience is required.
Nclex
You can write it, experience is recommended but not necessarily a requirement. It all depends on the agency or the hospital you applying to
Which state in the USA accepts UK Adult Nursing degree?
I don’t know some people say they have no issues going through board of nursing New York.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I am doing a dual degree in both child and Adult nursing. Would this make any difference in the us?
It would basically mean that you would have covered most of the requirements and that it would make it easier to apply then if you would have only done one area only
