Easiest is uk and it would take less than 6mths if you pass all exams at ist attempt and NMCN behave themselves.

Canada would take you about 6mths to 8mth to migrate (through Express entry IF ONLY YOU MEET THE REQUIREMENTS). Then practicing as a nurse would take you from as little as 1yr to as much as 4yrs depends on your case.

Zealihedi:

Zealihedi:
U should have a BSc in Biochem, Physiology, Anatomy or Microbiology... At least 2.1... UI mostly gives 1st class for MBBS I guess.

Are you a bsn student back home or in the us?

Babyvet:


The crna program is very competitive and expensive . Are you coming to the us to study bachelors or a masters ?

Babyvet:


You want to become a crna, Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist? That usually requires at least a bachelor a degree in nursing and some nursing experience preferably in the intensive care unit . It would be hard to get into the program straight from Nigeria. I can not really specify any state, generally you don’t want states that are in high demand for American nurses because chances of employment sponsorship is low. To get direct sppnship from the facility is very hard these days , you may have to go through an agency , a popular one is avant.

Babyvet:


Massive turn over rates , I mainly talking about bedside nursing , bedside nursing jobs tend to be very stressful so people are always leaving. Another reason for turn over ,is that new graduate nurses will work a job out of school they do not particularly care for , get some experience and leave. Also the younger are going for nurse practitioner school one -two years out of school. The good thing about in American nursing is that there are many places and specialities in nursing. I’m just shedding light on actual nursing in America , since no one has really talked about it in this thread.

Babyvet:


Lol, nursing in the US is much better than Nigeria but it’s not a bed of roses here either especially bedside nursing. In my area, there is massive turn over rate with nurses.

camobri:


Nursing in Nigeria is shit! I woyld never practice except the compulsory internship. I said what I said, you cannot change my opinion and never did I say I was un proud of my profession. Nigeria is shit, everything is shitty. Abeg.

camobri:

Yep. Student.

camobri:

Inshort, everyone should stay back? Mba. Once I finish, I run away.

Hello all. I have been a silent plus lazy followers of this thread for a long while. Kudus to my inspirers mamajaz, incredible, barbie and co. I have a bnsc. I would really love to relocate. The processes seem complicated, long and scary to me. I am finding it hard determining which location between canada, US and UK to pursue. Considering the canada express entry , the proof of funds gives me chills( as i no get money) in considering the USA I Just registered with shearwater health but yet to sign contract ( as i want to be sure if it has my best interest compared to other agencies such as avant). Considering the Uk i am preparing for IELETS but some1 said UK nurses are not well paid compared to US and canada and that tax for hubby and children will cut my neck. My people sorry for long post i need advice, motivation and suggestions. Please between UK, USA and canada which has the highest and lowest benefit for nurses in terms of cost of living, salaries and other parameters. Thanks
