Hi! I am 24,a registered nurse in Israel, having a BSN degree from the Israeli branch of New England's University, Maine (studied in Israel). I have a 1 year experience in nursing. Currently I work in the Neurologic department. What do you think, should I use the opportunity to relocate to US and work as a nurse?
Please, I need your advice.
Thank you

I'd stay in Israel and solidify your nursing skills before going anywhere else. Moving to a different country, language, culture can be a major shock to your system.

Get comfortable and competent where you are, then think about moving on. For most nurses this takes two to three years of acute care experience.
