40 years old, married with 3 young children. I was born and raised in Israel. I moved to London in 2011. I graduated with a BSC in midwifery at King's College in 2017.

Evaluation of credentials of internationally educated nurses

In 2022 we returned to Israel and in June 2022, about a month after I returned to Israel, I submitted all the documents to the Nursing Division. About a Month after submitting the documents, I received a positive answer and was tested in the licensure exam in September 2022. In December 202, I started working as a nurse at the Women's Health Center at Meuhedet HMO.

Most helpful in the process

The help and support of the Nursing Division employee responsible for abroad graduates.

Best advice I have for internationally educated nurses

Know and find out exactly the requirements of the Nursing Division regarding the accreditation process before submitting the documents.

My professional aspiration

In London I worked as a midwife as St. Mary's Hospital for 3.5 years and it is very important for me to do so in Israel as well. I will be able to start working in midwifery in about a year and a half because I am currently working under a temporary permit.
