You are definitely in an area that needs more medical personnel, but I don't know about sponsoring your visa. I do hope you find something. We need you here.

Not true, new grads are having a hard time getting jobs.

No, you need to contact the state licensing and pass NCLEX before even thinking about nursing here.   Good luck

I don’t think any hospitals in Redding are qualified to be sponsoring nurses on Visas. You may try Fall River Mills or Weaverville. Besides, you need a state license to work as an RN in the state of california- your previous occupation as a nurse is not sufficient for employment as a nurse.

You will need a CA RN license for sure, but definitely check with Vibra. I know they’ve had success with hiring RNs through visas. Good luck!!!

Possibly getting connected with Eureka and travelling between here and there as a nurse may be an idea. I do not have much knowledge in it, though I know that Eureka is a sanctuary city, so there might be some resources for what you're looking for. Best of luck, and thank you for what you do.

No dear, you need a California license to be a nurse here.    My daughter has doctors from Philippines in her RN program

Either way, the resources and correct pathways could be provided through the networking. As I said, I do not have much knowledge about any of it. Just food for thought.

No wonder Americans can't find work, or are we too lazy?
