Hi Violetta!

  • Hey!, nothing has happened yet...still studying and graduate next April!. Basically right now I'm trying to find out how to obtain the vias and work permit, trying to find out how my training meets national requirements in Belgium, and finding out how much LPNs make there, and the housing situation. Finding out about LPNs in Belgium is HARD!!! I've contacted a hospital a few weeks ago and still have not heard back as to wages, benefits, ect.
    The only info I have to pass on from what I've found (other than to the obvious visa stuff - best to contact the Belgium embassy in the US for the info you need to know!) is that it doesn't seem like you need to take a national exam or anything, but I could be very wrong!. I know you have to register with the nursing "association" in the region you are moving to. Other than that I really haven't had too much luck finding anything more than that!. Like I said, it's hard to find out too much about LPNs there, and it's made harder by the fact that Dutch and French are the main languages, although english is spoken - but a lot of the websites are in either dutch or french (and my french is really rusty!!). I hope to move to Brussels, and it seems like apartments are fairly easy to come by, as Brussels is the EU capital, and a such there is a large turnover in apartment vacancies with govenment/support staff comming and going. Sorry I can't be more helpful!

    Cheers!
