I hope I am not late here. Thank you for everything. I love your channel so much information. Please I hope you answer me.What are the requirements or processes you go through when you want to move from a care home to NHS after you have completed your care home contract. Example if you came to the UK as a senior carer because midwifery jobs are hard to find in the UK, and you planned on applying for a midwifery job after your senior carer contract ends?

@Scholastica Ugboka Are you able to work as a Registered Nurse Midwife in Northern Ireland. Are there jobs available? Can you register as both with the NMC? Thanks in advance

@ScholasticaUgboka 2 года назад

Yes there are jobs available but midwifery jobs are not very easy to come by. I'm working as a nurse in NI right now, Nursing and midwifery are different professions within NMC so you will have to do a separate application and write both CBT & OSCE for midwifery and another CBT and OSCE for nursing

Hi scholar sorry for asking this now,how did you prepare for the exams,like how long were you reading,what were u doing, things like that... please I need your help

@ScholasticaUgboka 3 года назад

I cant really say how long specifically but the CBT is very easy to pass, you only need to study with the right materials and most times I do this when I'm on working (night shift). So I'd say probably 2 weeks to a month is enough to study for the CBT. The ielts however is another ball game and you have to keep studying and writing until you get the scores you need.

Please do I have to pay the £140 before contacting the nursing council in Nigeria for verification

@ScholasticaUgboka 4 года назад

The £140 is your NMC UK assessment fee, without paying it NMC uk will not contact NMCN for your license verification. So while it is ok to inform NMCN that you are expecting NMC uk to get in touch with them on your behalf before paying the money, NMC uk will not ask NMCN for your verification until you pay

@ScholasticaUgboka 3 года назад

Yes you have to buy a new sim card. There are different options so it would be better to choose one based on the best connectivity within your town. Sim cards are mostly free here but you have to pay for internet services which could range from £10 to £30 monthly. I currently buy data for £30 which gives me 100 gigabyte and unlimited calls and texts to other uk numbers. Most times I dont exhaust the data even with heavy usage

Thanks. I researched on the 4 regions that makes up the uk and decided on NI based on affordability, calm environment, where I will like to raise a family etc. It depends on what you want and what is a priority for you. If you like big cities then NI might not be the best place. I love the peace and serenity in my locality. It has a community feel because it's not very big. So browse and check the pros and cons of all 4 region before deciding on a place to live.
