Peds Nurse looking to move with husband
Hi all! I am a Pediatric nurse in the United States looking to relocate with my husband to Vancouver. I know there is a pretty lengthy process to apply for a nursing license, but I was wondering what a nurse with about 10 years experience makes in the Vancouver area...specifically at BC Children's Hospital. Thanks for any help you can give!

This should give you a rough idea. Sorry link was for LPNs. Try looking for collective agreement for the hospital. You will need to see which union handles nurses there

I work as an RN in Victoria, as a Public Health Nurse. A CH1 earns approx $35-$43 an hour.
You can fill in paperwork to get your previous experience recognized, so that you don't start on the basic. It is up to the discretion of your manager if they support it.
