Nurse wants to move to Europe?
I was wondering if there was a high demand for nurses in European countries such as there is in America. I was thinking more specifically in Spain. I am currently attending Nursing school and plan on finishing with my BSN (Bachelor of Science in Nursing). I am fluent in Spanish and English and would like to have the opportunity to move abroad. What would it take, How much, Visas, finding out about nursing employment, etc. I know it is extremely difficult getting accepted into other countries so I am hoping the fact that I am a skilled worker will help. If you have any experience doing so please tell me how it went for you or anyone else with general information that will be of use to me.

Why don't you explore working for a large corporation that has divisions in Europe...or even the federal government? There is often a need for school nurses or corporate nurses for American entities and military bases around the world. That way, you can work for an American company, which might be better-suited to your needs, but still live in a foreign country and soak up the culture and life-style. Some jobs do include housing, such as on a military base. If you were interested in Dubai, for example, you would have luxurious accommodations and probably a Mercedes as a company car.... --BrainBabe

Actually, you may have an advantage over most people wanting to move to Europe because healthcare professionals are in some demand. Being fluent in Spanish will certainly help. Check with the Spanish embassy for requirements: http://www.maec.es/Subwebs/Embajadas/Washington/en/Home/Paginas/Home.aspx. There is information on work and residence visas here: http://www.maec.es/subwebs/Consulados/LosAngeles/en/MenuPpal/Visados/Trabajo/Paginas/noticia1.aspx I can't help you directly since I moved to Italy rather than Spain, but the requirements are similar. A good place to do some research is the various ex-pat websites where you can benefit from the experiences of others who have already made the move. http://www.expatica.com/es/main.html http://www.spainexpat.com/ http://www.expatforum.com/expats/spain-expat-forum-expats-living-spain/ http://www.thisisspain.info/ http://www.escapeartist.com/e_Books/Living_in_Spain/Living_in_Spain.html

Which country has the best standards in the world for working as a nurse
Which country has the best standards in the world for working as a nurse?
I've heard some people say that Australia has too, compared to Latin American countries and Spain or other European countries. What about the USA, the UK, or Canada? In terms of the pay, benefits, schedule flexibility, and additional bonuses, including a respected professional work force and ethic? I personally believe that the USA has the best nursing profession and well-respected in the world, but please correct me if I am wrong. I think so because of how many nurses from other countries are coming to the USA to work as nurses. Also, if that's so, then why are other people from other countries who are nurses, say The Philippines, UK, Spain, and the Middle East, are moving to Australia? Does that mean Australia has the better end? I also realize that Australia's nursing career is gaining so much respect from this "nursing revolution" that is occuring now there, or from what I've seen in "NurseTV". What do you experienced nurses and nurse researchers say? Which one is it in this world? Please give me answers with reliable sources and maybe some statistcs if available. Please explain why you think so too, and please answer my question. Thanks!

I live in Australia and am thinking of becoming a nurse. I have heard from many nurses that the working standards are atrocious; they get treated badly and are underpaid. I'm not going to let it stop me from being a nurse though I thought that the best standards and working conditions for nurses was in the USA. Not sure though.
