equine vet nurse….?

what qualifications do i need to become an equine vet nurse, what jobs will they do and also how much do they earn roughly (in the uk). working as a vet/vet nurse is something i have always wanted to do since i was 5 and i’ve always been there when my pets have been to the vets/had vet visits. i have been around horses since i was 8 and have had my own for the past 3 years. i have just finished my gcse’s and will be getting my results in a couple of weeks. in biology i am expecting to get an A/B (i dont think i did too well on the exam because i had a bad cold so not sure) and in chemistry i should be getting an A and in physics i will probably get a B. in maths i am expecting an A/B. i am not so great at english and never have been. i got a C overall in language and should get a C/B in literature. my other subjects arent really related to this career at all but i have definately got at least C’s in all of them and most should be higher.

next year i am doing Biology, Chemistry, Psychology and sociology AS and then probably dropping sociololgy and doing the other 3 A-levels. if i do well in maths this year i might swap that for maths though after i get my results.

what should i do after that. i was thinking of doing this course as part-time or an apprenticeship. http://www.nortcoll.ac.uk/animalcare_PTcourseinfo.aspx?crscode=ACVTND3

what do you think… then after that what course do i need to do to specialise in equine?
fennec fox, i know i cat be an actual vet which is why i am going to be a vet nurse. also i get mainly A’s and B’s if you read correctly with probably two or three C’s.

Register Nurse Salary… New York / Florida?!?

So, I’m from the UK and considering a career in nursing, I’d love to move around doing a job I love, so I thought I’d consider going to America!

What I’d most likely do is;

Start/Finish a nursing degree
Gain experience working in the NHS and loading agency,
Spend up to 5 years nursing in UK
Move to America, nurse in either New York, Florida/Orlando or California!

NHS starting salary is around £21,500 a year…

So, say I did like 3 years and gained lots of experience in nursing, mainly critical care/ Intensive Care or Acute Admissions or Accident and Emergency..

What would an average salary be if I then decided to move to America?

Wife Wants to Work Abroad and Leave Me for 3 Years?

Posted on by

Im married for 1 year and 3 months, we are living in the Philippines. Now, My Wife is a nurse graduate and wants to work abroad. Work here as a nurse is hard(too many), and the pay is low. We are not really suffering or in dire need of money but she wants to start her career ASAP. She is planning to be a working student in UK. Problem is, Im a very sentimental/emotional person. It is still around 6 months before she leaves(if she decides to push thru with this), and yet here I am getting very depressed.

Yes I can visit her 2 months/year(her contract/schooling is good for 3 years), but I just feel its too early in our marriage to be put to this kind of stress. I read around, and though yes I trust her, anything can happen(accidents, longing for a companion, etc). 3 years is a LONG time. We dont even have a kid yet, which by the way I want to be raised here in the Philippines so our kid can know our parents(they are getting older and older), and for traditions sake. If she goes there, plan of having kids will be moved for 4 years instead of next year.

I told her I can go to UK with her but I need to save up, cuz as of the moment, money will only allow her to go there(tuition, plane fares, visa, etc.). But she cant wait. I feel so depressed. She said she loves me, and I do know she means it. I just feel that she is kinda selfish to really put her dreams first before us. Should I just trust her and come what may/visit whenever? Or talk her to waiting til next year when I can go with her(she fears tuition, requirements will be harder if we wait longer)…

Sigh… Please reply and soon. Heart is breaking…

THANKS!
@Poppy… how about if we just push thru with this? She goes, I visit her. Is it almost impossible to work things out with this?
Thanks guys! Really really appreciate it!

@FaithE, as I said, Im not stopping her, I merely said I was hoping she will give me time to save up so I can go with her at the same time. One more year. If she can ask me to wait 3 years for her, why cant she wait just 1 year more for me(and WITH me).

She is so attached and dependent to me here, she can hardly go anywhere without me, cuz she wants me to be her "chaperone". I just want to protect her, and guide her on her first month there. So really, I dont see why that is selfish. Cuz her decision seemed rush. The moment her friend went to UK and told her stories, she suddenly wants to go there.

Do I have to apply for a new visa to re-enter UK if I am a student under the old system?

I currently have a 3 years multiple entry student visa under the old UK system which will expire on 2012. I wasn’t able to continue on the NVQ course which I previously enrolled, because I learned that it would no longer be relevant for my qualifications as I am already a graduate of BSN (Bachelor of Science in Nursing) plus College that I was in wasn’t able to give its students sustainable comfort. Hence, I decided to stopped attending college until I would be able to find a new course and University. However, I wasn’t able to and decided to go home after. Now I want to go back under the Overseas Nursing Programme Course. Do I have to apply for a new visa??? thnx

Will I get a job doing an IT or Nursing course. Which is crunch proof?

I have always loved IT but I found myself working in the care industry and I have even got an NVQ3 in Health and social care. However, I love IT from a previous working experience too. I design websites in my spare time. Am about applying for a place in the university. I don’t know what the job market is like for IT (computer science) people in the UK especially in 3 years time when I will be finishing. My heart says IT but my mind says nursing.

No qualifications, very little experience, how to get a job as a teaching assistant/nursery nurse? UK.?

Hi,

My little sister is very down at the moment, she is 21 and has been trying to get a job in childcare for the past 4 years. She does not have qualifications, althought she is currently working towards them. She has very limited experience in the industry and has been doing Admin for a recruitment company for the past 3 years. This is the only job she has had, except for placements at schools through college as a teaching assistant.

I was just looking for some advice or help with this as I don’t know how to help her. She is really bright, and fantastic with children but she just needs someone to give her a chance. Also, she does not want to do full time work for £6000 or whatever, she is currently on around £15,000 and is hoping to get her own place soon and this just wouldn’t work. She realises that she will have to take a pay cut, but almost £10,000 difference is just too much.

She is so unhappy, as she is at her wits end, and in a job that is completely wrong for her, in a real cut throat industry, and it just isn’t right.

She is looking for any of the following; nursery nurse, teaching assistant, child carer etc. or similar.

She lives in Oldham in the North West.

Please can somebody help :o )

Nurses pay for a newly qualified (RN) in the USA?

Hi, today in the UK, it was announced that nurses have accepted a pay increase of 8% over 3 years.

Currently, (before this pay increase) after passing a Diploma/Degree, a new RN in the UK makes £19,683 p/a, or ,761.

Is this similar pay for a newly qualified (RN) nurse in the USA?

Thank you.

Im 19 to begin with and i still live with my parents. Im from india living in uk and as you can imagine that my parents are very strict! I have already waisted 3 years of my time listening to them and i really regreat it today. I have been doing nursing course for them because it looks good and has good money but i have no intreast in this job at all!!

I would like to become a graphic designer because i have good skills on visualisation and art but they think this is just a hobby and will not get me nywhere in future. They just dont seem to understand what i want in my life..and it really hurts me. But they always expect too much from me like get qualification degree for nursing etc and do the job and live life happily ever after. ..Im not perfect and i have my own life to live not theires..even my teacher is saying that im not doing well in the course and i dont have the motivation to do it. Its true i dont..

Im just very sick and sad…i feel like im still a child even though im 19, they dont give me my sense of independence and choice..Im not even allowed to have social life/go out late night or have a boyfriend? Its almost like living in a prison..i wish someone could just take me away and show me the meaning of life.

I had been staying up the whole night yesterday till 3am..thinking about my life and what i want and i have finally made a decision to do art and follow this route because i cant do nursing job for money if i dont enjoy it from the heart.

Now the problem is that when they find this out, they are gonna blow up and there is gonna be tantrums and hassels..

i know that graphic designing job is really complicated and competitive but i know if i work hard i can do it. So i believe in myself ..why cant they?

what should i do? do a job that i hate to but has good money or follow my passion and do a job that il enjoy.

thanks sorry it was bit long..please give me good answers.
