I live in ohio but im interested in moving to the uk. do you have licensed practical nurses there?
Answers:
You'd have to look up the UK equivalents. All us registered nurses, midwives and health visitors are registered with the NMC - check out their website. Also the Royal College of Nurses website. Just put those in your search engine.
Try this:
NursingNetUK: Registration - The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC)If you have trained overseas and now wish to practice in the UK you must also apply for registration with the NMC. Please follow this link for more details. .

Thanks for your interest though.
thing arnt as sweet as they look, i dont drink tea from a saucer, lol the nhs are real good people, and a message to my fellow english men dont forget it
No. We used to have State Enrolled Nurses but that qualification is no longer available.
Instead, we have Health Care Assitants (HCA's). They undertake National Vocational Qualifications (NVQ's). I suspect that your LPN would be similar to their qualificaiton.
I have put a couple of websites that you might find useful. The first is the Nurses and Midwifery Council, the second is one concerning careers in the NHS - the page is about HCA's,

Good Luck
To work as any nurse in the UK you must be registered with the NMC (Nursing and Midwifery Council). I expect any nurse trained and qualified in the USA would have little trouble getting registered. Registered nurses working in hospitals in the UK do a lot of hands-on work but are required to complete a three year degree or diploma course to qualify.
Assistant nurses work alongside registered nurses performing tasks such as washing, feeding patients etc. To work as an assistant nurse you do not need to be on the register but may have to have a reasonable level of education (up to 16 years of age) and good references.
Do you mean practise nurses ? if so yes but you would be better off making sure by contacting an agency either here in the UK or in the states we have here Registered general nurses don,t know if that is a similar qualification ! but we think you would earn less money here in the U.K. By we I have just spoken to my mother who has been a R.G.N for 50 years and is still at it but now in the community! My sister is also a R.G.N & midwife but she is now a practise nurse owing to having a ruined back due 2 nursing You! I guess will have experiance of that particular problem !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. A practise nurse works at a doctors practise ,where she specialises in the care & advice to diabetic patients !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
