Paving the Way for Internationally Educated Nurses: Unveiling New Brunswick's Nursing Initiative

Welcoming news has emerged from the eastern Canadian province of New Brunswick, as it unveils a plan to support internationally educated nurses. As your trusted partner in navigating the Canadian immigration landscape, Mesidor Canadian Immigration Services brings you an in-depth look into this transformative initiative.

As part of a five-year plan, the New Brunswick government has committed to covering various expenses, including assessments and tuition, for up to 300 internationally educated nurses annually. This groundbreaking scheme aims to integrate these professionals into the province's healthcare system, enhancing its capacity and resilience. The New Brunswick's Nursing Initiative promises to usher in significant changes for eligible nurses who are willing to make Canada their new home.

To be eligible, nurses must have a provincial nomination, be licensed in their home country, and actively pursue the licensure/registration process in New Brunswick. It is noteworthy that the Nurses Association of New Brunswick is actively involved in this initiative, striving to reduce the registration process for nurses from 12-18 months to as little as two weeks.
