Welcome Back Center Supports Foreign-trained Nurses

When Tsering Dolma emigrated to the United States to join her husband in 2017, she feared that the nursing training she had earned in India would go to waste. “I was wondering how can I get back to my career, how can I get the opportunity to work,” she says. Eager to find work in the nursing field, she turned to the Boston Welcome Back Center to help navigate the nursing credential evaluation and Massachusetts licensing processes.
