nursing degree from abroad

nursing degree from abroad?
Hi all, My sister-in-law recently came from India. She was a RN in India and now she is planning to work as a nurse in USA, but she is confused about how can she start her career here. Should she do LVN program and then go for RN program or what can she do? does she have to do all her study again or she can sit in NCLex exam. Please suggest something. We live in California(if state needed). thank you.

If you have a degree - or any other qualification - then you'll already be in advace of of the masses when it comes to looking for careers. My friend has a degree and he wasn't sure what direction to go with it, but he stumbled upon some excellent tips on the website in the resource box below which helped him to settle that he wanted to be a lab assistant. There is loads of help on the website regarding other careers.

She needs to contact the CA state board of nursing. Google their website. They will also probably have information on their site about foreign-educated nurses so you might not even have to call to find the information you're looking for.
