| Super Moderator | Nurses struggle to make the grade Monday, January 17, 2005: Canada: Quebec: Nurses struggle to make the grade:"So why can't nurses do it? Mainly, it's a matter of time and money, say nurses and their advocates. Nurses are mostly women who are raising families. They earn less than most members of the 44 other professional orders required to write the test. If they do have the time, they might not have the money for sessions with private French tutors, which can cost between $40 and $150 an hour. Since the firings of Eulin Gumbs, 43, and Elizabeth Davantes, 47, both registered nurses at the Jewish General Hospital, were publicized Jan. 4, nurses' stories have begun to come out." http://www.canada.com/montreal/montr...8-a597de022ab4 ************************************************** **** I have to admit, that if you're working in America, you need to learn English and speak the language. It should be no different in Canada. The good news is they let you take the test pretty much till you pass it. Andrew Lopez, RN http://www.nursefriendly.com/news |
