Pilot Program for Licensure of Foreign-Trained Nursing Professionals

To assist foreign nurses in rejoining the nursing profession for which they were trained in their home countries, and to increase the number of culturally and linguistically competent nurses in Montgomery County, Holy Cross Hospital helped to develop and launch a collaborative pilot program for licensure of foreign-trained nursing professionals. The pilot program helps foreign-trained nurses who meet specific selection criteria navigate the state's registered nursing licensure process, participate in college courses to prepare for licensure and gain clinical exposure to the U.S. health care system through placements in hospitals.
