You'd need to pass the CGFNS (Commission Governing Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools) Exam, the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) Exam and the NCLEX-RN. http://www.cgfns.org/ http://www.ets.org/portal/site/ets/menuitem.fab2360b1645a1de9b3a0779f1751509/?vgnextoid=69c0197a484f4010VgnVCM10000022f95190RCRD https://www.ncsbn.org/index.htm

Its easier than before because US have a huge shortage in the nursing area. The US now are pulling professionals nurses even from Thailand because there not enough nurses,almost every single hospital is running with less nurses that they are suppouse to. There not enough people studying nursing careers and in a couple years from now the crisis will be horrible!!!!!!! So if you are a professional nurse (If you are a RN please run!!!) contact your closest USA embassy and see what your suppouse to do (papers,diplomas,etc...) I am a RN and this scenario is my everyday thing. Working double shifts and still my hands are full.
