Each year, thousands of qualified foreign-educated nurses come to the United States to live and work. These clinicians play a crucial role in supporting the U.S. healthcare system and delivering high-quality care to patients nationwide. While the immigration and licensing processes don’t always move as quickly as those in the industry would like, international nurses do have options.
Non-Cap H-1B Visa Program
As the industry leader in the recruitment, training, and placement of foreign-educated healthcare professionals in the U.S., MedPro International offers multiple visa sponsorship options, including Green Card and now a Non-Cap H-1B Visa Program. Through the H-1B program, nurses who have passed their NCLEX-RN can begin working on assignments in the U.S. while their Green Card applications are being processed. So, qualified nurses can enter the U.S. healthcare workforce sooner, avoiding delays in starting their careers, while also helping to address critical staffing shortages nationwide.
Fast-Track Your U.S. Healthcare Career
Under the program, MedPro International provides full H-1B visa sponsorship. Participating nurses will earn a starting wage of at least $35 per hour, with guaranteed raises at the 12-, 18-, and 30-month marks. Additionally, each participant is eligible for a $7,000 sign-on bonus.
The contract is structured around an hours-based system, requiring either 5,000 hours of work or 30 months of employment, whichever is reached first. This model gives international nurses flexibility while also offering a clear path for a long-term U.S. healthcare career.
“We recognize the urgency with which many international nurses want to begin their U.S. careers, especially given global workforce shortages,” said Patty Jeffrey, RN, Executive Vice President, International Operations. “This program helps meet that demand while providing nurses with legal work status, competitive compensation, and full benefits.”
Those benefits include comprehensive health coverage (medical, dental, vision), paid time off, life and disability insurance, and access to a 401(k) plan with company match.
