No matter what field you go into, having a welcoming and oriented workplace that provides new employees with information and support, will lead to positive work satisfaction and reduction of turnover rates (McMaster University, n.d.).

We’d like thank @Kkdcsn for having an interview with us last week!☺️ She taught us so much about the long process of becoming an IEN which provided us with immense insight and awareness to the multiple components it takes to even practice as a nurse in Canada. [1 of 2]

We are a group of third year nursing students completing a course project that focuses on how nursing students can enact change as leaders. Our initiative is on the lived experiences of Internationally Educated Nurses… [1 of 2]

Did you know there are thousands of IENs unable to practice in Ontario as RNs and RPNs due to the CNO backlog of applicants?
Our group initiative is proud to share RNAO’s social media campaign and incorporate it into our actions. #IENaction #NursingCrisis

IENs are important, valuable, and essential members in the multidisciplinary team!😌

Please refer to these images to read about why they are important and the challenges they may encounter as they prepare to attain their license🩺
