Giving Nurses a Helping Hand Every year, many women and men immigrate to Ontario who are educated and experienced as nurses. Naturally, they hope to continue their nursing careers in Ontario as quickly as possible. The CARE Centre guides internationally educated nurses through the steps they need to take to succeed in Ontario. Find out what CARE offers, how to join or how to reach us.

The emotional and educational support I received from the CARE Centre was very important to my success. I am an immigrant and I do not have many friends here. The counselors made me feel very warm and supported! They (the counselors of the CARE Centre) are very knowledgeable and patient with us.
