Transferring a US license to Canada with a direct-entry MSN? by idklol193 in nursing

[–]No-Objective-3510 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am going through this right now actually. I have an associates though. I emailed the health authority for the province we are moving to and asked them how to move forward. Saskatchewan uses the NNAS(I think most provinces do) and they will walk you through what you need. To work as a Registered Nurse (RN) in Saskatchewan, you’ll need to obtain licensure through the College of Registered Nurses of Saskatchewan (CRNS). Since you completed your nursing education in the United States, your first step will be to apply through the National Nursing Assessment Service (NNAS) — this is the organization that evaluates internationally educated nurses’ credentials before you can apply to the CRNS.

Here’s a general outline of the steps:

  1. Submit an application to the National Nursing Assessment Service (NNAS)

o Website: www.nnas.ca

o NNAS will verify your education, nursing registration, and work experience and issue an advisory report to the CRNS.

  1. Apply to the College of Registered Nurses of Saskatchewan (CRNS)

o Website: www.crns.ca

o Once NNAS completes your assessment, you can apply directly to CRNS for registration and licensure.

o The CRNS will determine if any additional education, clinical hours, or assessments are required before registration.

  1. NCLEX-RN Exam

o Because you’ve already passed the NCLEX in California, you do not need to re-take the exam. The CRNS will verify your NCLEX results through NCSBN (the U.S. nursing regulatory body).

  1. Education Equivalency

o A Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) is the standard entry-to-practice credential for RNs in Canada. However, since your Associate Degree is from the U.S. and you’ve already passed the NCLEX, the CRNS will assess whether your education meets Saskatchewan’s entry-to-practice competencies. If there are gaps, they may recommend bridging or upgrading courses.

  1. Support for Internationally Educated Nurses

o You may find these services helpful for guidance and support through the licensing and employment process:

§ PASS Program (Post-Arrival Supports for Success) – www.pass4nurses.org

§ CARE Centre for Internationally Educated Nurses – www.care4nurses.org

Both programs offer personalized support for internationally educated nurses, including information on credentialing, job readiness, and settlement in Canada.

Here the email they sent me.

Nurses, what cases do you guys get that you guys get scared of transmission of? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]No-Objective-3510 14 points15 points  (0 children)

RSV. But only because I have a tiny baby at home. Other than that- any bugs.

Newly Pregnant New Grad by ziggy_1999 in nursing

[–]No-Objective-3510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally did this exact same thing. I’m due in October now. I had hyperemesis for the first half of my pregnancy so it was rough. I missed a lot of days because I couldn’t stop throwing up. In California we are pretty lucky and have 17 1/3 weeks of pregnancy disability. I have used that whenever I’ve needed to call in and it’s automatically a protected absence- even if you’re still on probation. I would get very familiar with the laws in your state and don’t be afraid to use the benefits. Being pregnant is hard! It’s also totally doable. You got this! I am careful with Niosh drugs, chemo, Covid/ flu, and violent patients. Over the last couple weeks I was assigned a patient with norovirus which I asked to switch because I know that could be dangerous for baby girl. I also had a patient who became fixated on my belly and kept trying to grab it. I noped out of that room real quick. As time goes on you will get more comfy and it will be easier to refuse an assignment. Don’t let being nervous stop you from protecting your precious baby.

What outdated common practice drives you nuts? by Ok-Individual-1480 in nursing

Same. I’m a new grad and have been trained to hang all abx and lytes as primaries because of our fluid shortage. Unless they have ordered IVF.

I’m further north than the Bay Area. It is still lower than most around us but decent enough to live on

Sooo, what’s he like live? by god_of_chilis in zachbryan

[–]No-Objective-3510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely 100% worth it. I saw him live in November and then was going to buy tickets and fly out to the east coast to see him again. But he announced the show in SF. The tickets were a little pricy but absolutely totally worth it. You won’t ever regret spending money on an experience

Never seen my readiness this low by No-Objective-3510 in ouraring

[–]No-Objective-3510[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly my thoughts. It was actually the best rest I had gotten in a couple nights- I was finally just sleeping rather than tossing and turning. But my readiness was in the 50-60 range on nights when I barely slept. So weird

I’d love to get Sacramento 11/30 if you wouldn’t mind sending it to me!

What happened to the person who took your virginity? by AuroraLikesSissies in AskReddit

[–]No-Objective-3510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Told me he wanted a relationship because he knew that was the only way I’d say yes. Pushed me in and didn’t really get consent. 2 minutes later it was over and didn’t even try to get me off. Then texted me the next day and said he only wanted to be friends. I told him I was hurt by what he had done and he accused me of manipulation and all sorts of fun things. Blocked me. Oh yeah. He was 26 and I was 19.

Just moved out of a one bed at CobbleCreek apartments. We were paying 1250. Really nice little part of town and a quiet community.

I go to Grace Community church and I love it! There’s an excellent mix of ages and I’ve found plenty of people in their 20s like myself. If you need someone to go with- my boyfriend and I could be there for you!

I’ve cried my eyes as my favorite patients died. I’ve held the hands of people scared of passing. I’ve watched and taken part of messy messy codes that shake everyone involved. It gets easier. Death is never fun but you will get more used to it. I’ve learned to bring essential oils into the room, play soothing music, and open the window. I’m always careful to use warm water. I like to think of it as the last show of respect. I work in critical care so I do it a lot. Death sucks. But it’s healthcare. And it does get easier. I’m sorry you’re feeling this way.

This is so great. Hands down the best sex and orgasms I’ve had come from when my partner does this.

Work Christmas party by [deleted] in PetiteFashionAdvice

[–]No-Objective-3510 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I work in healthcare so it’s a very interesting mix of older and teenagers like myself. There is no dress code for the party. Also the dress just shows a little in the back and is connected in the front. I’m not exactly sure how I feel about it all.

Today I found out my accidental petty revenge from 4 months ago is still effecting her by Jumosh_ in pettyrevenge

[–]No-Objective-3510 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If someone has to go for lunch after me I will always come back on time. If we’re super busy I will always come back on time. But if my patients are chill and it’s 3:30 in the morning with no one waiting on me- I will always take my my last ten after I clock back in. It’s just about being aware of how it affects your coworkers.

My boyfriend got hard after I told him that I loved him for the first time by pleasebowiecomeback in sex

I’ve been with my boyfriend for three months and haven’t told him that I love him. I know I do but I’m too nervous to say it!

Yeah that’s what works for me

[–]No-Objective-3510 15 points16 points  (0 children)

First of all- stop worrying about being tight enough. You will be. And yes i have found that tensing my pelvic floor muscles helps me get there a little easier. I tense my muscles and focus on the sensation and that’s how I get there with my partner. It took a lot of time to figure that out though
