Yes, Health Care in the UK is abyssmal, it really stinks there. It's because they fell for the Liberals who thought a country could provide Health Care to all. It doesn't work does it?

You complain about hygiene - yet you went into a hospital with a potentially contaigious disease, and you want them to put carpets down (which would allow bacteria to thrive and prevent proper cleaning of the floor) Also, you went to London. If you want to visit Britain then you need to go to a part of the country which isn't too 'busy' to talk to each other. Nothing is more depressing than watching a train full of businessmen so interested in their own business than the other human beings around them doing the same.

Living in US. Wanting to Move to Spain
Living in US. Wanting to Move to Spain.?
Hola todos! I think I might want to move to Spain after college which is in 2017. Thats after I get my masters. I want to become a nurse-midwife and I was wondering how hard would it be to make a living there and how I will have to start off there. I looked on this website and it said that midwifes are in demand over there. I am a high school senior right now and I'm trying really hard to attend college in Madrid, Spain for two years. Help me please. And also I know that I will have to learn spanish, which i am practicing with hispanics every day. I am a US citizen

First, you live in the US, but where is your passport from? Are you a US citizen? Because it's very difficult to get a work/long-term visa for Spain if you're not from the EU. Start researching things in depth, and you might be able to do this. START by thinking about doing a year abroad in Spain (so you will know the language, and the culture, and maybe set up some sort of connections, and maybe have that visa paperwork done). BTW, it's really important to check into whether your chosen career is even a viable choice. My impression of medicine in Spain is that they are pretty conservative. ¡Buena suerte!

It really depends on what standard of living you want. The wages will be much lower here than in the States.We can't foresee 2017 and the job market, or the problems you may have getting a work visa here, so best to plan to get your degree, then find work in the US and ask this question then!

I'm not disputing that Midwives may be in demand in Spain at the moment, but that may not be the case in 7 years time. - If this is something that you have your heart set on then you should be aware that just because you have a medical qualification in the US it does mean that your qualification will be valid or recognized here in Spain. In order for it to be recognized you need to go through a validation process which can tale a number of months, and almost always requires that you have been in practice in the country where you studied and qualified for a certain length of time. - Have a look at this link which tells you how to get your professional qualification recognized in Spain - http://www.tumbit.com/how-to-guides/articles/121-how-to-get-your-professional-qualification-recognised-in-spain.html

Having lived in Madrid for 2 years, I can say that you need to consider several things. St. Louis university has a program in Madrid and they even have nursing classes at the one of the major private hospitals there. As for nurse midwives being in demand, well, the average Spanish woman does not have a child until after she is 30 and it is rare to see a family with more than 1 child. As you finish your 4 year program and move on to your masters work, you will want to consider the risk of delivering older mothers. While malpractice is rare, it is present there. A person with an advanced degree in a area of need, should not have too much trouble getting into Spain to work. The thing that was catching fever pitch when I left was anti-immigrant feelings that were increasing as the economy started to fall several years ago. Shake downs of immigrants was a daily thing regardless of race and nationality. As to learning Spanish with Mexicans. In Spain the Spanish is different. Most of my friends learned Latin American Spanish and when we got to Spain we all had a laugh about how people would not like to speak to us until we learned European Castilian. Even our Mexican friend was made fun of because of his accent. They are very protective of the original language, but you will find many Latin Americans there anyway. The one thing that I would say, and I hope changes by the time that you are there, Contrary to popular belief, there is a lot of crime in Madrid. Mainly in the form of pickpockets and purse snatching but armed robbery is now a fact of life there. Before you commit to your university money there, I would recommend a program like a gap semester/year program or a great one that is 20 km from Madrid, called pueblo Ingles. The main purpose of the program is to teach Spanish people English, but the room and board is free and you will get a feel for the country. I have included a link so that you can have a look at the program. Be sure to ask them lots of questions if you are interested.
