🩺✈️🇺🇸 LOOKING BACK: MY AVANT TRANSITION PROGRAM JOURNEY 🇺🇸✨
Looking back at these photos, makaingon gyud ko:
“Grabe… gikan ra gyud diay ko diri!” 🥹❤️
My Avant journey started in Florida—from training and transition, all the way to my deployment in San Angelo, Texas. 🇵🇭➡️🇺🇸
It wasn't just about learning how to work as a nurse in the US.
It was also learning how to start a whole new life in a new country. 🥹
🩺 TRAINING
Learning the US healthcare system, policies, documentation, workflow, and getting used to doing things differently.
🚗 DEPLOYMENT PREPARATION
Then came the exciting—and slightly scary—part: preparing to leave Florida and move to Texas!
🏡 APARTMENT TRANSFER
Packing, moving, figuring out where we're going to live… and asking a million questions along the way. 😂
🛒 FIRST GROCERY RUN
Because after moving, the next question is always:
“Asa ta makapalit ug grocery?” 😂😂
🚗 CAR PURCHASE
And of course, learning how to buy my first car in America! From financing, insurance, dealership, paperwork… murag nursing care plan ang kadaghan sa requirements! 🤣
One thing I will always appreciate during this journey is having a travel specialist who guided me along the way. ❤️
From my transition program and deployment to helping me navigate the move, apartment transfer, car purchase, and even those little things like where to grocery shop—having someone to guide you makes such a huge difference when you're a new immigrant nurse trying to figure everything out.
