Thanks Mo,

I can get a 'general syllabus' off them but it is the transcript (number of hours) that I need?

I got a general syllabus off them and that did the trick with the ANMC and nurses board. Why do you specifically need number of hours?? Good luck!

Mine is for the Canadian Nurses Association and they are not happy unless they get a transcript....

Yeh! I had the same problem but the uni got me a transcript of another EN who trained around the same time as me and used it for me, wonder if they could do the same for you.

Which Uni was that milo?
I wrote to the NMC fully explaining the situation and got another letter back from the senior registrar saying that basically as there is no transcript they cannot help :curse:

Northumbria uni, think it's name has changed to Newcastle uni or something, it's at coach lane Newcastle Upon Tyne where I did my RN training. When they applied for my EN transcript from the archives they were told it wasn't available???

So as they already had another transcript strangely enough in the same year as I had completed my EN (1980) they just used that one as it was similar to what I had done. Never had any probs.

Good luck hope your get something soon.

Hi Denise,
Any luck in locating your transcript? I did a search and found the
link on nurses reunited. There is a nurse who qualified in the 60's
from Hillingdon Hosp. might help you to locate your transcript.
Another place you could contact is the National Archives.

Good luck .

Thanks Yoong,

still had no luck I am afraid. Tried the uni that took over the records and they said that all the records did not come across so they don't have it.
We are due to leave the country in August so my last attempt has been to write to my MP but as yet no response.

Looks like she will have to leave the nursing profession after 26 years as her qualification is not going to be recognised and start something different...

Have you both consider other provinces like BC and Alberta?
As far as I know, Alberta accepts UK nurses with diplomas.
I work in BC , all our new RNs that are trained locally have degree.
However, CRNBC may accept UK trained nurses with diplomas.

Don't let the lost EN transcript, stop you from coming to Canada.
It is worth giving these 2 provinces a try.
http://www.nurses.ab.ca/
http://www.crnbc.ca/
Looks like CNA won't budge or give you any concession.
Every province does the assessment differently.
Alberta is booming, you both would have
no difficulty in finding jobs as RNs .
Good luck,
Yoong

Thanks Yoong,

I am afraid we have decided to give up with the nursing track. We are coming to BC (Kelowna) in August and cannot seem to get through the LPN route either. Unless we can get a copy of her transcript (which no longer seems to exist) she will not be recognised even though she has been nursing at RN level in the UK. After a year and a half of trying it looks like she will have to be a shop assistant or something simiar!

I give in with the bureaucracy :curse:

Chris,
May be one more try with the NMC, go personally and talk to someone
there.All they need to do is give a generalised summary of the EN course.

I could call CRNBC or go the office,if you it is ok with you and see what they have to say. All I need is a summary of the EN course so that I could explain
to them and may be come out with other options.
I suppose your wife has her RN transcript.How long was her RN course?

Thanks for caring Yoong;

She started as an EN when she trained and then moved to being an RN level 2 without having to do another course (just because of the job she was in and the work she was doing as the Sister (Practice Nurse) in the local surgery). We tried the RN route with Alberta and they said that the evidenc that was provided was not enough and to appeal would cost $2000 (ish). So we gave up with that and thought we would try the LPN route instead. We had decided we preferred BC but have had no joy with the BC LPN regulatory body as they have said she needs her transcript.

The NMC can only send a copy of a General syllabus for the EN course she would have done but cannot give her a transcript (ie number of hours and grades achieved).

As I need to be out there in August we have given up - it does not seem fair that she is a Practice Nurse in the Surgery here but cannot work as an LPN there without the transcript.

regards

Chris

I was an EN who did the conversion and prior time of conversion was RN2 which was the new classification for EN. Has she done conversion course at university? That could be why you are having problems if she hasn't really done a conversion course. Just a thought
