@ Crushsugar, are there any medical conditions that could prevent one from being granted Visa or even practising over there? If there are, please can you mention them?
Thanks.

I have been thinking about what to post this period that our movement is home and work. It is allowed to take walk though and this picture is from our evening walk today.
What I want to share is what I have noticed about British people.
1. They are hardworking and believe you work to earn money except some persons who are proud to keep receiving benefits. In my opinion, these are the minority group. They are ready to work overtime to pay their extra bills like holidays, saving to buy a house, phone, electronics etc.

2. British people will not dash you money for no reason.

3 . They cannot Express emotions like us. Like being upset, they way they look upset is nothing compared to a Nigerian that is upset. So, you might not actually know someone is angry just because they show it differently.

4. They hardly hoot while driving. In fact the only sound I have ever heard on the road is siren. Someone had even told us that if you hear someone horn, that person is probably very angry with you. The only people that maybe use their signal is bicycle riders but rarely. They are very patient on the road.

5. They can talk wella. We believe in keeping things to ourselves but them no care.

These are the ones I can remember now.
Stay safe.

I know about TB. That is all they would test you for before the Visa.
Others like HIV and hepatitis is a personal discussion one will have with occupational health but no employer is supposed to reject anyone because of these.

@crushsugar pls I want to ask a question or better still seek your opinion
following the part of nursing,I have found out that going through jamb,post ume is one process I'm scared about especially in aspect of ASUU strike et al.

Then school of nursing the rigidity is much,u must live in the school premises if you are single...its not going to be easy as I still need to hustle to foot my bills.

so I googled,and read that one can go for nursing through post graduate studies although I saw just two schools that do that for now..

Hello guys, be expecting my husband today. Excitement ++++++++

Hello crushsugar. I have been following this thread and found it very informative. God bless you. Please what would be your advice for someone recently offered a job in the UK on a tier 2 visa with 4 dependants (a wife and 3 kids)? The company will only reimburse travelling and direct visa application expenses for me and none of my dependants and i dont have the financial muscle to sponsor all of them till i get there and start working.

Is it advisable to go to the UK alone first and bring them over within the next 6 months when i must have made enough? Is application for a tier 2 dependant visa over there seamless?

You anticipated response is highly appreciated.

Hello, house. I'm a graduate of Human Physiology. Please how do I become a registered nurse and eventually get to practice in the UK? Are there any accelerated nursing programs I can enroll for from Nigeria?
I look forward to receiving your responses to my questions..
Thanks.

You can do pre-registration nursing (MSc. ) It's 2 years in uk

hi all,
I am very sorry if i appear to derail your thread with a rather bizzarre inquiries of mine.

I heard there is a form of accelerared nursing programme in the UK for those with a Bsc.

I have not been able to get hold of some valid information about this.the little information i have is that if one has a BSc, one can apply for a MSc in nursing making one eligible to be registered withNMC.

unfortunately I do not have anymore information about this pathway.I would not know if anyone on this platform can help me with this info or there is some1 somewhere who took or is on this route to get registered with NMC or there is any Thread to this respect.

please I tender my apology once again for this derailing inquiries.

Many thanks

Yes you are right for those without BSc in nursing,they can go for MSc pre-registration nursing for 2 years

Re: Adventures Of A UK Bound Nurse by Slimgold2019: 2:47pm On Jun 10, 2020
Do you mean someone can go for Pre-registration Nursing (Msc) irrespective of whether you have first degree in any other course (ie Economics) as my case & would be able to work after completion & registered with NMC in Uk..

The information is 100% correct. In UK, you can apply for 2 years MSc Nursing program that leads to registration irrespective of what you studied in Bsc. Though most schools will want a science related Bsc and 2.1 and above.
Some need work experience in a health care setting.

Yesssssssss ohhhhhhhh. You can, very well. In 2 years only you might not spend up to 2 years self maybe 20 or 21 months depending on your intake. You can even apply by yourself and you will get the course

Hello Dear, To answer you with the information I have, doing a PGD in nursing in the UK will fetch you a nursing job in the UK. If you have the financial muscle to pursue a PGD nursing in the UK, it is a worthy adventure all the best.

Thanks for this info. Please, do you know if IELTS is needed for this purpose? If yes, what level of proficiency?

I know that you can gain registration here and work here after doing the PGd but I don't know if it is accepted in Nigeria.
