Vado potenzialmente in Belgio per studiare e lavorare lì dopo aver studiato l’assistenza infermieristica nel mio paese per 1 anno. Ci sono suggerimenti o leggi che devo educarmi in merito a tali questioni? Non so davvero quanto sia la scuola e come mi presento lì. Mi sto diplomando al liceo quest’anno e attualmente sto cercando di far avanzare i miei studi per ridurre le mie difficoltà una volta arrivato. Attualmente sto leggendo "Fondamenti di infermieristica" da "OpenStax". È quello che sto leggendo bene e quali altre risorse sapete se aiutate? Voglio essere un’infermiera registrata e non solo un caregiver. Sto cercando di iniziare e imparare anche olandese, sto ottenendo le mie risorse qui da Reddit. Sebbene l’alfabeto sia simile all’inglese, ci sono regole che i parlanti non nativi incorporano nella loro discoria che esemplificano meglio il loro discorso? Se hai bisogno di ulteriori informazioni, per favore, chiedi e grazie per avermi prestato il tuo tempo!
Any tips and useful information for a foreign student studying nursing in abroad and working there?

Nursing student (a bit older) chiming in!
Your best bet is to talk to a school offering a nursing degree, and be familiar with the different type of nursing options here. We have “basisverpleegkundigen” that follow a three year course but do NOT end up earning a bachelors’ degree, while the bachelor takes 4 years, which is what I’m doing. If you want, you can add a master in nursing to this, which is a master in science. There is still a lot of debate in what the “basic nurses” can or can’t do and whether any difference between them or a bachelors’ degree is valid/how to incorporate that on the workfloor. Welcome to Belgium!
So contact a school close to where you intend to live and ask if your open textbooks provide any potential “vrijstellingen”. With all due respect, I don’t think they will. It’s a nice base to start nursing with of course.
In my entirely non-asked opinion, I think it’s incredibly bold to assume you’ll know the language well enough to study any degree here, let alone nursing. The courses are nothing to sneeze at and you will be expected to do 2300 hours of clinical rotations over 7 domains to pass. So even if you, say, don’t want anything to do with psychiatric care or pediatrics, tough luck: it’s impossible to pass without doing a minimum amount of hours in these. What’s the reason you won’t just finish your education in your own country and work as a nurse there? (Not that we don’t want more nurses here, we desperately need more hands at the bed, as we say)
Side information: it’s very common for nursing students to work as caregivers in summer break, since once you’ve passed all classes from your first year, you can get your caring certificate and get to work!
There’s a need for nurses, so it is a good career path. Just be sure to learn Dutch.
