Since you are in Aberdeen it is famous for 2 things. Lapdancing and finding oil. And the oilrig guys go to work to find the oil, and the lapdancers probably use baby oil, so thats wonderful how that works together. But you can ask ur husband about that one

On serious note..what did you do before with nursing? What was the course? How long?

A good source of information would be the Royal College of Nursing in Scotland. This short article should help you out.

How to become a Nurse

But you need to be here for least 3 years. In the meantime there is no reason you cannot volunteer to work at a hospice or part time work at a hospital.

You would have to find out if you can use the credits you achieved from your study in the Philippines. Are they worth anything here? They do count for something. I had a quick look at OPEN UNIVERSITY.

I searched Philippines. And it came up with a list of recognised institutions (places) in Philippines. here is the list:

List of Instutions and your credits

If you did above 2 years you should be ok.

Good luck, and wish you well for the future
