Employment Opportunities in the U.S. for South African Health Care Professionals
Regardless of the vast distance between Africa and the United States of America, the OGP team in South Africa successfully recruits, assists and places nurses from South Africa and beyond on assignments in the United States. For over 25 years, O’Grady Peyton International has helped nurses and their families relocate to the United States, and has placed thousands of registered nurses in jobs at top hospitals nationwide.
Whether you’re looking for an extended stay or a permanent relocation, O’Grady Peyton International has the resources and the expertise to make your journey to the United States the experience of a lifetime. We offer comprehensive immigration processing, a track record of high NCLEX success rates, training and full support as you transition to your new life abroad. To learn more, take a look at O’Grady Peyton International’s team, educational resources and our recruitment process. Get started by exploring our Web site where you will find everything you need to know about the USA nursing program and working as a health care professional in the United States.
After joining OGP’s sponsorship program, our educator will work with you to ensure you are well prepared to sit the US Nursing Licensure exam (NCLEX).
Prior to starting your studies, you will be asked to complete a diagnostic readiness test. These results will be used to help you realize your strengths and weaknesses in the five nursing areas tested in the exam: Medical, Surgical, Pediatrics, Obstetrics and Psychiatry. Your educator will assist you with additional material in areas that need more attention.
During your study program you will have two official tests and after completing the 11 week study program, a final proctored test will be done at a designated center in your area. This is called your Pre-Flight exam. If you achieve the required score of 78 percent, OGP will arrange and pay for your flight and accommodation to sit the NCLEX.
In addition to the above, a series of small tests have been developed to help you prepare. You will have access to these tests should you want to make use of them.
As most of our nurses live too far away to visit our offices, we present Telephonic Tutorials via a conference call. OGP arranges and pays for this one-hour call during which valuable exam preparation tips and much more are presented to help you better understand the NCLEX exam.
