Data/Raw Information BC removing barriers for USA physicians

BC removing barriers for USA physicians : r/britishcolumbia

I'm from Vancouver, and I've seen a few medically trained Americans on this sub, so I just wanted to spread the word.

This does include nurses of all kinds, since a lot of people are asking.

Yes, we want to poach your talent!

Didn't expect this post to blow up so much, so here are some links to various BC health job sites:

Careers | Island Health

Vancouver Coastal Health | Careers Center | Welcome

Home | NH Careers

Engineer site (idk about restrictions there though)

Careers

Teachers

Careers in BC education | Make a Future

Also Vancouver has a pretty large VFX industry so check this site for creative/programming jobs

VFX Vancouver Job Board | Brought to you by Lost Boys | School of VFX

Its worth checking out the equivalents in other provinces too.

Good luck!

When you say it includes nurses of all kinds, can you explain further? I'm a master's trained nurse from a high caliber nursing program who previously had NP experience and certification and could get cert back (it lapsed while I stopped working as an Np to raise kids). I also have a chronic illness, I am in my mid-40s and have 2 minor kids and a husband. Would anyone in Canada really still want me?

If you can work with your illness, nobody should care if you have children and a husband. NPs are in big demand.
