I'm not a Nurse but I've seen the legal arguments on the subject, both in Canada and the US. The requirements are strict. For example, here is what Alberta, Canada is requiring of Internationally trained Nurses: "To qualify as a nurse in Alberta you must be able to prove the following: Competent English language ability. Successful completion of a nursing program which has official approval in your home country, state, province or territory. Status as a registered nurse in the country where you earned your nursing education. If you practiced nursing in a country other than the one you earned your education in, you must demonstrate that you practiced as a registered nurse in good standing for the last 5 years. Completion of at least 1,125 hours of practice as a registered nurse within the last 5 years, (not including the current year,) OR Completion of a nursing degree or education program that CARNA finds satisfactory. Evidence of your competence to practice nursing at the expected professional level in Alberta. This could be through a combination of education, experience, or other related nursing qualifications. You must have no health problems that could affect your ability to work as a nurse. You must be able to demonstrate that you are of good character through employer references. You must not have any outstanding criminal charges or convictions that could affect your ability to practice nursing. You must complete and pass the Canadian Registered Nurses Examination (CRNE). The fee for this exam is approximately $500 CAD." International nurses can register to work in Alberta, Canada | Live and Work in Alberta The resentment comes when internationally trained Nurses take jobs from Canadian (and US) citizens. I have seen an argument that more grant/scholarship money for "citizen" Nurses (or people who would like to become Nurses) would help the current shortages; also, better benefits and hours. Is this a homework question? |
