Registration Form - The School Of Nursing: Fill & Download for Free

I had a friend in my school. In Class 10th, the registration forms for boards were getting checked by our class teacher. He was calling each student roll-number wise and asking their details. When his number came and he was asked, “ Father's occupation”, he replied, he is a house husband.Our Sir mocked him saying, “So, he packs your tiffin boxes, hahaha!! ”My friend also laughed at it, taking it a good joke.Actually, my friend lives in my colony. His mother is a nurse in a reputed govt. hospital and his Dad stays at home, doing all the works a genuine housewife does.They are well economically. The husband is damn caring. Each evening, he goes hospital and takes his wife to home, lifting her bags in his hands. Both are happy.But the man is nothing but a laughing stock in our colony. No man, literally no man is his friend here. No one talks to him as he is busy in his house chores too and he doesn't do “manly” activities. He washes clothes, wipes the floor, maintains bills, buys groceries etc. But he is mocked behind his back. People say words like,“E kouno kaam na Kari… jeevan bhar aapan mehraaru ke kamaayi khhat rah jaayi.”He'll never do any work and will keep feeding on his wife's earnings forever.But have we ever asked any women like, “Why she's a housewife?”In fact society's eyes start glittering when they hear that this woman is a housewife.But being house husband is shameful, malicious, atrocious, non-manly thing.What do you wish was socially acceptable?That if a couple has agreed to their terms that one will work and others will stay home, then we must shut our mouth if the gender is not suitable to our eyes. Neither housewife nor househusband is a pity task if the couple has decided to work this way.Stop judging.Thanks for reading

As previous answers have revealed, it is law in every state that a Registered Nurse must attend an approved school of nursing, and successfully graduated. It is also law that the nursing student, on graduating must pass a standardized, comprehensive test on multiple nursing specialties and pass it to be now considered by the state for registration. A criminal background check, including DUI’s is performed by the state and when passed gives a registration to the individual with a designated, permanent license number. Currently, most states require a set number of continuing education hours to be completed before the next license renewal. The now Registered Nurse is free to practice within that state. If they move to another state, they must go through that state’s registration process, and nurses can hold multiple registrations. It is illegal for any one to impersonate a Registered Nurse, including the public, LPN or medical assistant. They, if caught and convicted would never be permitted to be an RN in any state, and is considered a form of professional fraud.

This involves immigration, visas, and getting approval to stay and work in the country.STEP 1: CHOOSE YOUR STATE, MEET REQUIREMENTS, AND APPLY TO THE STATE BOARD OF NURSINGWhat is the State Board of Nursing?Each state has a committee called a Board of Nursing (for example, there are 50 Boards of Nursing in the U.S, one for each of 50 states). These are the people who decide if you are able to take the NCLEX and get licensed in their state.Before you can even consider scheduling or planning where you want to take the NCLEX, you have to make your application to a State Board of Nursing.The NCLEX application process:How do I Know What Requirements I need to Meet?Each state has different requirements. They will charge a fee ranging from $200-400 depending on each state. If you don’t know what state you want to be a nurse in, now is the time to choose!In the United States, nurses don’t get licensed for the whole country. The United States has 50 states, and each nurse is usually licensed in one state at a time. That’s why the first step is to choose what state you want to apply for!However, no matter what state you apply for, everyone takes the same NCLEX to be a nurse in the United States.Each state’s Board of Nursing has a website where you can find out the requirements. Check out our NCLEX Requirements by StateYou can get a full list of Boards (including those outside of the U.S.) on the NCSBN Board Contact page.Where can I take my NCLEX?All international students should also read this FAQ page on the NCSBN website to learn more about applying for the NCLEX for foreign applicants!According to the FAQ page, “The countries and non-member board territories that currently administer the NCLEX examinations are Australia, Canada, England, Germany (not available), Hong Kong, India, Japan, Mexico, Philippines, Puerto Rico and Taiwan.”You can also search available test centers from this Pearson Vue Test Center Search.When can I take my NCLEX?There are no set test dates for the NCLEX that you have to plan while doing the application.

The only requirement is that there might be a 90-day time limit (you have to schedule your NCLEX within 90 days of your application’s approval).What is CGFNS?First, we’ll explain to you what credential evaluation means. Credential evaluation means that a company has to look at your nursing school transcripts and education history from your home country to make sure you’re qualified to even take the NCLEX. The Boards of Nursing don’t do this because it would take too much time – so they let companies like CGFNS do the job. CGFNS then sends reports to the Board of Nursing if they feel your education meets requirements.CGFNS is the most popular and well-known company that does this. You should know that different states require different “levels” of CGFNS evaluation:Credentials Evaluation Service Professional ReportThis report is less involved and cheaper than the Certificate Program or VisaScreen.English RequirementSecondary School DocumentsLicensure Documents from your Home CountryNursing Education Documents from your Home Country$350 FeeDetails on CGFNS WebsiteCGFNS Certification ProgramThis evaluation is the same, but requires you to take the CGFNS Qualifying Exam.Everything in a Credentials Evaluation Service Professional ReportCGFNS Qualifying Exam14$445 FeeVisaScreen®: Visa Credentials AssessmentThe VisaScreen has the same requirements as the Certification Program, but is meant to qualify you for getting a Work Visa, after you’ve already passed the NCLEX exam.$540 FeeCGFNS is not the only credentialing service! There are others that may be cheaper and still accepted by State Boards. You should first check to see if your State Board accepts these alternative companies (and let us know in the comments below!). If you decide to use CGFNS, different states require different CGFNS evaluations. You can see a chart here of which state requires which certification. At the time of this writing, CGFNS reports cost $350.00.Alternatives to CGFNS:International Education Research Foundation (IERF) ($350 per report, see states that accept IERF)Educational Records Evaluation Services (ERES)($375 basic fee)Josef Silny & Associates, Inc.($300 per report)The NCLEX application process:Other RequirementsFingerprints: Some states require students to get fingerprints, which can be a complication if you’re currently in another country.Social Security Number: Some states require students to have a social security number in order to apply or take the NCLEX in the first place. Other states allow you to use your visa or passport in lieu of that. Some other states have special forms for you to fill out if you don’t have a social security number. You can also learn more about how to obtain a social security number from the social security website.English Proficiency Test: Many states require you to take either the TOEFL or IELTS test to make sure your English is fluent enough. This is usually a part of your requirements for your CGFNS report. Again, follow instructions that are listed for each state and feel free to contact them for specific details.This requirement often does not apply if you attended nusing school in Barbados, Canada (except Quebec, the only schools approved for exemption are: McGill University, Dawson College, Vanier College, John Abbott College, and Heritage College), Ireland, Jamaica, New Zealand, South Africa, Trinidad and Tobago, United Kingdom orUnited States, and if your nursing school and textbooks were taught in English.
