    Thank you for this… I remember an incident where my patient need walking aid and I phone the OT/ PT. She told me that they don’t provide walking aid, that I should pick a zimmer from the ward for the patient my jaw dropped at her response.

    Thanks sis for the information. I passed my Nclex last year November via the self sponsored route. Working presently in the UK with the NHS and it has been stressing. Imagine 1:9/10 patients and most times with no HCA. I'm scared of falling into the wrong hands with agency to help me with getting a job. Please i need advice. I have also done my visa screening via CGFNS.

    Nursing in the UK is brutal especially in the NHS thank God I have just a few months to ILR then I will start my US journey proper. I have started window shopping for agencies to go with though I am very selective as not as desperate as I was a few years ago. Some of this US agencies are 😅

      Your so right it’s better to shop
      Around first and do your research before settling for any agencies. Always remember they make more money on your head than your making from them. As for the nhs all their nurse are running away. Maybe one day they will start paying better, we can only pray.😀

    Thank you for this information so much ❤still have more questions if possible. Like what is the staffing like in the US, is it still short? Are the staff welcoming... I have a great relationship on my ward in the UK, so i wondered if the US singled out UK nurses?

      @Raqualla 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi, I'm doing this too. I'm Msci adult and mental health nursing. We can't work in the US with this, but it is beneficial that we have dual. After a year experience, you may be able to apply for the NCLEX. Avanti is a good agency I found recently but I still need to complete my years experience.

    Can I use ERES for Texas, and when I get my license I transfer my license to New York BON.
    Having in mind New York does not use ERES.
    Thank you

    • @lindaasidanya8540
      @lindaasidanya8540 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      When you get your license using ERES for Texas, you will have to endorse your license to New York as it is a non compact state. New York in some cases will most likely require you to use CGFNS, they also do their own evaluation themselves. Lola correct me if I'm wrong.😊

    • @nurseing16
      @nurseing16  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @folade Linda is right do also check the New York board as some states may be strict and insist on their own credential evaluation or request cgfns So always check with each state what they want from you. Remember CGFNS is the gold standard the bees knees, the masters of the game if you could call it that.This is why they can get away with the snail Pace and the holier than thou way of doing things 😂

      So your not a nurse yet? Just to bare in mind that msc still doesn’t guarantee the missing hours you will still need to go through the evaluation process with cgfns and still likely have missing hours to be eligible to take Nclex exam. Perhaps think ahead. I have a video on how I met my missing hours through requesting community placement.
