Are you an international nurse looking to join the NHS and be part of our fantastic team in York? Have you passed IELTS/OET, CBT and been invited by the NMC to undertake your OSCE exam? If so, we are keen to receive your application and begin assisting you in your journey to becoming a UK Registered Nurse. You will initially join as a pre-registration nurse Band 4 and will participate in our intense 4 week tailor-made OSCE preparation programme. During this time you will be provided with the necessary assistance at our dedicated OSCE preparation centre in York. You will be supported by our Practice Education Facilitators all of whom joined us through this programme, so recognise how you are feeling as you settle into not only a different healthcare environment but also a different country. Upon successful completion of your OSCE and registration with the NMC you will then join our Registered Nurse workforce as a UK RN.
