I’m in Bristol from 4 weeks more or less I very like this city.
About my experience for Caring Homes, they gave me 3 weeks of induction to learn most of my duties.
The biggest trouble I had and I’m having is the English, but is improving.
I found very available colleagues and careers.
About Luisa, what I can write, she is the best one.
She helped me everytime I had troubles. She is my friend not just a recruiter.

“It was great to work with the agency.
The team is very professional with an excellent response time and their work ethic is exceptional.
I highly recommend the agency for anyone looking for work abroad.
Even after the successful job application they were very supportive in the follow up and helpful in answering all related questions.
The whole experience was very smooth."

“Primary Care Recruitment came to Rome searching for nurses.
I did the first interview and they liked my CV, but I had to improve my English.
They offered me an intensive course of English to be able to face the final phase.
I did three interviews for public hospitals from England, and I passed two of them.
My final decision was to go to London to Whipps Cross hospital (theatre ward)”

“Honestly, I was skeptical about the idea of being selected by an English hospital, starting with a basic language level, but thanks to PCR and Porta Futuro, I will work in future as a scrub nurse in London.
For no costs, PCR provided teachers, nurses and all their staff to prepare us to overcome the interview.
PCR organized a 6 weeks free English course and continuous Skype sessions until the date of the interview.
After the interviews, they supported us, giving us all the information needed.
I feel lucky for choosing PCR, because without their help, I do not know if I would have been able to overcome all the difficulties”

“Everything is just fine. The job is ok, it’s not as hard as i thought it will be, everybody is really nice and friendly and the Nursing Manager is great.
Ballynahinch is beautiful, I adore it-I fell in love in it the first time I saw the town.
Bed and Breakfast is OK, the owners are very pleasant and helpful, the place is warm and dry-what else do a person need???
That’s about everything! I’m settled and comfortable!"

“Good evening,
I’m writing this e-mail just to report you how extraordinary has been the work of Luisa Almeida in my recruitment process.
Now it’s 3 months that I’m working for Caring Homes and I have never felt lack of support even if at the beginning has been hard because of the language and the new job.
Best regards,
Luca Frosini ”

“It was excellent ! I got a wonderful job in France thanks to Luísa. The process was fast and very effective.”

“I would like to say thank you to Primary care agency for the great job's opportunity that it gave to me, but the main thanks is for the lovely Ana Luisa Almeida who have always tried to help me and support me during the all recruitment process.
I really appreciate that and happy for my choice.
I for sure recommend to others to contact Primary Care agency.
Thank you so much.
All the best.
”

"Peterborough is a multicultural city, so by working in PCH I frequently come into contact with people of different nationalities, something I really appreciate!

Every shift is a challenge, but thankfuly I have a professional and very friendly team that I can count on.

PCR was a great help when I left my country and island.

Interviews by Skype and their proactive attitude are some of the positive aspects that set them apart. I’m here for a while already and we still keep in touch!

Thank you again and keep up the great work!”

“Even though I didn’t even know of the existence of PCR till May, in a few weeks I’m going to move to London to work as a nurse in a NHS hospital.
During the first meeting in May the staff explained that the chance to work abroad is closer than it seems.
The “Open Day” in June was for a first selection, as a basic knowledge of English is a good point to start.
In the following weeks the English course gave me and my mates the possibility to really “speak English”.
That was very useful and helped to gain self-confidence.
The staff members I met (Alessandra, Mirjana and Jennie) put us at ease and helped to prepare for the interview.
They gave us material, suggested what position apply for (according to work and training background) and what to highlight, so that when the interview was over I felt it was easier than I expected.”

''I have applied for nurse job in UK with Primary Care Recruitment Ltd. I have started as a nurse in a care home two months ago. It's a new experience for me. At first I was afraid of the changes and I was not confident in my English skills but with the help and patience from my colleagues I have managed to adapt.

A pleasant experience so far. I appreciate the sincerity and honesty of the PCR team, everything went according to the contract and conditions we have agreed before starting the process of recruitment.''
''Many thanks to Mihaela Epure and Luisa Almeida for encouragement, involvement and patience.''

Best regards,
Constantin Dolhan

“I have been in contact with Ana Luisa Almeida, from Primary Care Recruitment, in Porto for around a year. I contacted Primary Care Recruitment merely by chance, as I sought placement as a Nurse in English speaking contexts.

The expression of my recognition for Ana Luísa’s professionalism, as well as my huge gratitude for the way she maintained contact with me throughout this time must be written so it can become known to the Company.

If I were responsible for recruiting professionals and regarded them as people with a past, a present with plans for the future, I would most certainly be very happy to be able to count on sensitive, understanding and knowledgeable people to work with them.

Ana Luísa Almeida was always there to work with me in the sense of finding the best solution possible.

I was really amazed by the fact that I could feel such solidarity and basically that I was in “good hands” during the whole situation.

I was able to overcome the situation, pick up my self-esteem and return to work with Primary Care Recruitment on a new situation because of Ana Luísa Almeida.”

“Everything has been great so far. The hospital seems great, everyone is always trying to make us feel very welcome and they showed support all the time.

We already have a lot of paperwork to cover... I think everything is in the right path and I’m really enjoying to be here and I’m expecting only good things from the Trust...and I have to thank PCR for this great opportunity, they have followed
me closely since the beginning and provided me with a lot of “tools” to make the whole process a successful “journey”

They even support me in my NMC registration and still contact me to know how I’m going”

“ Hello Luisa!
How are you? Hope you're alright.
My experience is fine for now: all my colleagues are helpful, and my Scottish boss who I'm living with is amazing.
In Kingsclear there's a familiar atmosphere, and my boss wants all the residents to have a choice, and all the staff to encourage it.
We've got three big units, and I started to work in each one, so now I know quite most of the residents.
I'd really like to thank you for the great opportunity I've been offered...
I couldn't make a more appropriate decision in my life...:)”

“Hi, my name is Stefan, I am very glad to say that all that I have right now I owe to Luisa because of her efforts to bring me abroad.

I am very happy with my nursing job, I never dreamed of such a great life here in UK with the Caring Homes Group and I want to say that Primary Care Recruitment is the best opportunity to get a well paid job close to professional staff and learn with them.

Thank you very much Luisa for making this happen and I hope you make more people happy like you made me!

Best wishes!
