What are the opportunities for nurses to go abroad?

Nurses in China usually go abroad in the following four modes:

First, "short-term language training+nursing work" is the main mode of going abroad.

This model can be described as an intermediate model between studying abroad and working. This is mainly because nurses are badly needed in western countries, so the entry conditions for nurses are relatively loose. Specifically, the requirements for academic qualifications, financial guarantees, English proficiency and visa procedures have been greatly reduced.

This practice is closer to the actual situation of nurses in China, and avoids the embarrassment and regret that Chinese nurses can't go abroad for employment because their English can't meet the requirements of foreign countries, so they can only work as nurses or nurse assistants, but not as registered nurses (RN).

Second, go abroad to work directly.

At present, almost all nurses who choose this method in China go to nursing homes or nursing homes abroad to do nursing work. This kind of work is relatively simple and the language requirements are not high. After going abroad, you can work, and the economic pressure is small, so most nurses in China are competent and acceptable. The main countries are Singapore, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and other Middle Eastern countries as well as African countries. This method is being favored by quite a few nurses in China.

Third, apply for nursing courses in foreign universities and go abroad as traditional international students.

This practice is a long-term investment of Chinese nurses, which is of great help to the long-term development of Chinese nurses. Because of the foreign higher education background, diploma and life experience, the future salary will be greatly improved.

This method has higher requirements for visa processing, which is reflected in IELTS scores and more financial guarantee. Suitable for nurses who have worked for less than 5 years, have a good family and a good foreign language.

Four, through the evaluation of the nursing administration of developed countries, go directly to foreign hospitals for internship and get the registered nurse license of the host country.

This approach mainly includes internship in hospitals in Australia and Britain, or taking the NCLEX exam in the United States, and then obtaining a registered nurse's license in the host country.

This practice is closer to the actual situation of domestic nurses with IELTS score of 6 or above or domestic nurses over 30 years old with more than 2 years of overseas nursing experience, and has strong feasibility and stability.
