Nursing UK to Saudi

Last activity 12 February 2024 by HollyWid

Hi,


My husband has been asked to relocate to Riaydh in August from the UK by his current employer, he's a construction manager. I'm a registered nursing associate, so I'm not a registered nurse, I did a foundation degree, not the full 3 years standard nursing degree. When I've read some information online it says that a diploma is accepted from the UK and this is essentially what I have done, the foundation degree seems to be equivalent to a diploma. My question is will my experience and my qualifications be recognised in Saudi or would I be required to work as a support worker/health care assistant/auxiliary? Does anybody know? Any information will be very much appreciated.


Thanks,


Holly
