    Cool RN newbie

    Hello hello hello! I am Grace from the Philippines. I am an RN and currently employed in a medical and diagnostic clinic, but soon I will be having my training in a tertiary hospital! Woohoo. Well I wanna meet people here who can share info with me on how I can apply as a nurse in the UK.

    Like what qualifications should I meet, paperworks, etc etc.

    Thanks in advance!

    We are only taking nurses from EU countries not, very unlikely you would get a job here unless your husband is here.

    Thank you all for the response. Too bad I don't have a husband in the UK! But my sister is there and we are thinking of options on how I can join her there. If I become a member of the NMC, will it help get me employment there?
