Hi from California

I was very interested in what the others had to say about the long process it takes to get a british nursing license. I live in Leicestershire, a native californian,(living there with my british husband), and it is taken, still in the process of getting a decision letter fromt the NMC, about the overseas nursing program. I have taken the IELTS test and passed, now waiting ...... waiting ......waiting to get the word so I can take the 4 week program. I came back to California and am working as a traveler, while I wait,wait, wait. Since I have 20 yrs experience in L&D, I will probably have to take their midwifery course(18 months) in order to work in my field. The cost for everything is not cheap. They literally, pound you to death with all the fees. For a country who says they need midwifes bad, they sure make things difficult. Any suggestions for an easier route, I'm all ears.

Welcome to the site. Sorry can't offer any advice about the British license. Hope everything straightens itself out.
