Nursing is a globally recognized profession, and with the demand for healthcare professionals in the U.S. steadily increasing, Caribbean-trained nurses have an incredible opportunity to transition into the U.S. workforce. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, nursing jobs are projected to grow by 6% from 2021 to 2031, faster than the average for all occupations. Rather than starting over, take advantage of your existing credentials, which can be validated, and begin making an impact right away by pursuing U.S. licensure through exams like the NCLEX. Don’t let your years of education and experience go to waste—your skills are needed here.
