I’m currently a nurse trainee in a private medical center here in Qatar. I have been with them for a year now. I started September 2019 and as per QCHP, I need 2 years training to be eligible for the RGN license. I have no problem with that since I am willing to finish my 2 year training.
On September 5, 2019 I got my Nurse Trainee temporary license and my focal point told me I have to wait for 6 months before applying again for a medical license under Nurse Trainee. Since I have no idea how to work on it, I just followed what they told me and waited until March 2020 for the 6th month mark. First week of March 2020, they applied for my medical license but, this time, QCHP replied that I have to apply again for the evaluation as nurse trainee because my first temporary license expired. I completed all the documents that they asked for... so, I received my medical license as Nurse Trainee on April 4, 2020. Would that mean that my current employer just tricked me into waiting for 6 months before applying for a Nurse Trainee Medical License? Because the comment from the evaluator in my QCHP application for license says: the experience that will be considered will only be from April 4,2020 onwards.
I am really stressed about this. I am only receiving very little allowance monthly and I'm afraid that I’ll have to wait longer than 2 years before they pay me regularly. My job is no different from the other nurses in the area even if I’m a trainee and there are no benefits for me.
