Dear All

Please find below some post came across in one of the forumsAs a Registered Nurse, migrating and settling in Canada is an excellent opportunity for you. Canada is currently facing an acute shortage for Registered Nurses. This shortage is created because a growing population in Canada is aging, as well as, there has been emphasis on preventive measures for efficient healthcare. Moreover, a large number of nurses retire every year or some are also required for training and in education sectors.

Although the demand extends nation-wide, some areas in Canada have well pronounced shortage:

Ontario: The provincial government has provided CDN$10 million to those who pursue PhD in nursing, to encourage the entry of highly skilled nurses in Canada. Areas like Kingston, Muskoka seem very promising.

British Columbia: In the next five years, there are chances of generation of up to 6900 vacancies. British Columbia is facing difficulty for filling up registered nurse positions. The number of graduating nurses is insufficient to meet the growing demand.

Alberta: As per the Alberta wage and salary survey, around 43% of the employees are facing difficulty in filling up positions for this profession.

The specializations in this field are extensive, some are

•Clinical nurse

Hi all
Just an update as I mentioned in my message 16 Nov(reply # 4) I mailed my application to CNO on 15 Nov. The day I sent it I contacted both of the nursing boards/schools where I had done my RGN and midwifery training. They remember me as they had sent me my transcripts for my FSW apllication (sealed envelope). I scanned and sent them the CNO forms and informed them,that I had sent the originals by registered mail and they should expect to receive them within 72 hours. While they awaited the arrivalof the forms they put my packet together, so managed to send requested info to CNO by 20 Nov 2010. Just noticed today my CC has been charged by CNO for my RN assessment, fingers crossed they have everything they need!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone got any idea how long it takes.

Olga
